I am considering purchasing the 1037's after hearing them at a shop. I already own a Moscode 401HR amp, and I wonder how the two measurement related comments below will affect the sound? The last thing I want is an amp/speaker combo that accentuates highs. I am selling my current speakers because I find them too bright for my tastes.
The Focal Electra 1037 Be was significantly more sensitive than normal at an estimated 90dB(B)/2.83V/m. However, its plot of impedance magnitude and electrical phase (fig.1) indicates that it is a demanding load for the partnering amplifier in the lower midrange and bass. Not only is there a minimum value of 3 ohms at 33Hz, but there is a combination of 4.25 ohms and
