Boston Z6 Vs Focal Utopia Beryllium

**ITRBoI** · 14-06-2005 08:14 PM

Ok here goes, i've currently have the boston Z6 splits in my itr, and I'm looking at upgrading to the Focal Utopia Beryllium 6" component,. Now my question is that have anyone got one of these install into their car ( the focal).

At the moment the boston sounds AWESOME, but I don't know if I should do the upgrade or not, simply because I have not heard what the focal sounds like. Any input is much appreciated. I heard the Focal Utopia Beryllium are suppose to be the best, but i dont want just any recommendation, i need prove. Facts and figure dont do anything for me, so if anyone have the Focal Utopia Beryllium please let me know, as im indeed of advice. Even if anyone the Focal 165K2P and can give me a little review on them is also good too.

Heard that the Focal 165K2P are just as good as the Boston Pro Series.

So any help would be much appreciated

Honestly man.. speakers are a very subjective thing. I had a set of Focal Utopia 3-ways and honestly I hated, hated them with a passion. Swapped to the BA Pro's and have never looked back.

I find the Focals, very harsh and painful to listen to...

Good luck

you're not going to get anything really helpful here or anywhere on the net really to be honest. Go find somewhere you can listen to them in person yourself. It's the only way to see if speakers suit you tastes.

the only way you will find out is to listen to them, speak with the guys at fairfield car radios as the owner is the one that imports and distributes focal. he will be your best bet to have a listen to them before you decide to spend the dollars...

i have but, they dont have one in stock to listen too!!! and plus even if they do, on the board sounds completely different as to in the car!! and of course they are going to say buy this and buy that, come afterall they are all they only want to make a sale.

Even if anyone here have the Focal 165K2P, for me to listen, so that i can judge for myself
