    I'm hoping to organise a Focal Monitor Demonstration Day in the near future.

    Would that be of interest to the Brothers (and Sisters) ?

    We have a full range of Focal models for Demo so if anyone is on the look out for monitors you should definitely hear them.

    I know of nothing in the price range to compete with the Twins for accuracy.

    Very interested. Those are the "omnidirectional" speakers, right?

    I'd be very interested. Not so much in the twins but the CMS 50s, more my pocket you understand.

    The Twin 6s

    http://www.focalprofessional.com/en/sm6-line/twin6-be.php

    Recommended Retail Price on them is Euro 1484 In Vat each.

    I am, of course, open to a deal.

    Hmmm. TRFMB. I'll tell you what: I'll give you a masterclass in the art of overly-compressing audio and show you how to get a Telecaster sounding bad-ass with minimal effort (I call it the 'Bridge Pickup' technique).

    Might be interested, but that's some hefty price tag. If I'm reading correctly, almost €3k a pair?

    I'd want monitors to make me tea for that kinda money, and go to at least eleven.

    At last we have a venue!

    Westland Studio, Dublin.

    date to follow.

    Jimi at Asylum Studio also generously offered but there were other factors that didn't suit. Thanks, nonetheless!
