Hi,
So i've just sold my Dynaudio BM6a monitors & am now considering upgrading to either of these monitors. Since i do not have the opportunity to audition any of these where i live, i have to rely on other users opinions. This is where the complication lies, i keep hearing conflicting opinions as obviously everyone has different tastes.
I'm getting a good deal on both monitors, so there is only a difference of $650 between the two, which means price is not really an issue.
I'd already made up my mind about the K+H after asking this question on another forum but unfortunately i have to wait two weeks for the dealer to get them. So being impatient as i am i keep thinking about getting the Focals instead but am hesitant in case i regret my purchase.
So far from my research i've found that the K+H have the advantage of having a closed cabinet, meaning that they have a better bass response. The only complaint i hear about them is that they are not loud enough, but that is not an issue for me.
Both monitors get excellent reviews so this decision is really hard for me as this is a big investment for me & hopefully will be the last money i spend on monitors.
Anyway i would like to hear your opinions on these two monitors bearing in mind that i produce eletronic music & need something that translates well & has a solid & true bottom end.
Klein + Hummel O 300 vs. Focal Twin 6 BE

You are in the wrong forums I think. Very few people here have the kind of semi-high end monitors as the focal 6's and K&H 300 O's. You should read up on opinions of both of these at Gearslutz or R.E.P where people with higher budgets frequent.
I'm kind of in the same boat as you though. I'm not considering the focals nor the K&H but rather the Barefoot MM27 micro mains and there is absolutely no way of auditioning them anywhere in europe at this moment so it would be a blind 8000$ purchase for me but I'm pretty confident these are the monitors I need for my work.
Cheers!

Hi,
I've already asked on gearslutz & got mixed responses so i thought i'd ask on a couple of more forums. The barefoot's are indeed a great choice but too big & expensive for me! I've read nothing but praise about them so i'm sure you'll be very happy with them!
