Hi Jim,

Thanks - they certainly do grip my Focals by the balls. The Focal Maestro is actually a bit of an anomaly in the utopia range in that it has a wicked impedance dip in most of the bass (down to 1.7 @ around 100hz) so despite the high sensitivity, it needs juice. The Stella and Grande have the electro voice coils so easier on the amps.

Anyway - feel like I am joining the big boys now

They have just been serviced by Krell and so I am not going to change caps till maybe next year (with any luck!)
