Hmmm, not sure. I think it is a 4" single cone. I did not replace mine because the performance and staging of the Focal 165VR's was so good. I would recommend that you also wait until you have heard your system. When using a DSP that supports time differences like the Rockford 360.2 or the JBL MS8 I think that the role of a centre speaker is somewhat diminished.Originally Posted by WarrenM
Also, in my case I did not have enough amplification channels to be able to drive a centre speaker, and so I simply left it connected to the factory amplifier. It plays but is effectively inaudible due to the much greater SPL of the Focal system.
As for musical subwoofers (I admit being biased here) you should at least consider either the Focal 27V2 (11") or the 33V2 (13"). Here is a quote from the Focal web site
27V2 - "This is the thinking man's subwoofer. Not for bassheads, this is for people who appreciate music reproduced accurately."
33V2 - "This is the thinking man's subwoofer. Not for bassheads, this is for people who appreciate music reproduced accurately. The 33V2 13-inch subwoofer plays lower and louder than the 11-inch 27V2. This is a good match for larger front speakers, 6.5" and above. Set your crossover at 80 to 90 Hz for a seamless transition from sub to mid."
