Focal Maestro Utopia (£30,000)

摘要

When Scott Walker famously sang 'My Ship Is Coming In' he could have been describing taking delivery of a pair of Focal's £110,000 Grande Utopia EMs, surely one of the finest dynamic loudspeakers known to humankind. Standing over 2m tall and weighing 260kg (each!), the four-way 'Grande EM' with its electromagnetic 16in woofer and user-adjustable 'Focus Time' cabinet construction is a statement product that challenges the envelope of speaker performance. Privileged indeed are the audiophiles with adequately large listening rooms in which to accommodate them and deep enough pockets to afford them.
