Focal Electra 1038 Be Reviews

There's no denying that the Focal Electra 1038Be floor-standing loudspeaker, at $12,495 per pair, is expensive. For many, or perhaps most, it's even outrageous.

‘W’ ConeThe 'W' composite sandwich cone permits total optimization of the frequency response curve, thanks to the total control of three key parameters: lightness, rigidity and damping. These unique characteristics of lightness and rigidity provide control of the signal transmission speed inside the material. Unequalleed PurityDue to its incredible rigidity, Beryllium represents the ultimate material for a tweeter dome. After two years of research and development, Focal produced a world first: a pure Beryllium inverted dome, able to cover more than five octaves. You will improve the perception of transients and other micro details. As well, the linearity of the speaker’s response curve is mainly a function of three opposite parameters: lightness, rigidity and damping. IAL Tweeter (Infinite Acoustic Load)Electra 1000 Be loudspeakers feature an innovative technology called IAL (Infinite Acoustic Load).

• Electra 1028 Be is the flagship model of the range. It features the Powerflow double port system, which greatly enhances the performance of the bass. The dynamics have also been immensely improved to match the generous definition of the higher mid-range register, which will always be an industry reference.
• There is a notable difference between the 1038 BE and 1038 BE Mark2 (BEII). Make sure you know which is which as they updated the components and tweaked a few other things: 'Like all the high-end loudspeakers in the Electra 1000 Be 2 range, the Electra 1038 Be floorstanding loudspeakers has benefitted from new components and settings.

This technology enabled us to design a tweeter with a very wide frequency range capable of extending very low down in frequency response, for relaying the midrange much earlier. This technology allows the frequency range to which the human ear is sensitive to be reproduced by the ultra-light tweeter with exceptional definition.

Gamma Y StructureWhen style and technology meet, harmony arises. Le design de Electra 1000 Be design has been entrusted to Pineau & Le Porcher agency in order to create a pure line of simple natural where each style element would harmonize with the technical necessities to create the best speaker possible. Each curve is studied to bring a tangible response and correction to a given problem.The tweeter housing and coupling is a moulded, solid piece of aluminum alloy, which represents an ultra-stable mechanical reference, with absolutely no vibration. Every aspect of Electra 1000 Be 2 has a purpose.

After hearing and reviewing the, I was quite curios to take the Electra series for a spin and here we are. After hearing a pair of Electra 1028BE, I couldn’t resist and bought them for myself.I’ve had them for a few months already and I absolutely love them. This review will mainly be about, but you can also find a small comparison to. PresentationWhen I first laid my eyes on these speakers I was impressed with the level of finish and polish they presented.

They certainly are a pleasure to the eyes.It’s safe to say that they stand very well in the design/build quality departments.There is one thing that I don’t like and I must punctuate here. Each speakers has 4 drivers: 2 bass drivers, on midrange driver and a tweeter. Each of them has a separate protection grill. It’s not that easy to remove all of them and put them back.Let’s ignore that for a bit. The bass/midrange grills are sturdy and have a steady grip when mounted.The tweeter however is magnetic and the grip isn’t very strong. Actually, you have to be very careful when you remove/mount them, because it might flip in your hand and touch the beryllium tweeter which seems to be thick metal, but is actually thinner than a sheet of paper and is very fragile.Not to say that if you touch the grill by mistake it can easily fall off.

Focal should have payed more attention to this detail, especially at this price.Specs and TechnologyFocal is known for making their own drivers and the Electra Series is famous for the inverted dome beryllium tweeter and for the 3rd generation W cone midrange and bass drivers.The beryllium tweeter has a very extended frequency range and can reach 40 kHz. Well some of you may ask if this matters. What I can tell you for sure, is that the treble is just lovely: smooth, sparkly, very detailed and extended. Some say that because it has a wider frequency range, the first part that really matters(. How sparkly is the Treble? Tbh i bought Focal Twin BE (studio monitor) and the Treble was less than CIEMs.-” and Headphones too.

My friend told me because its a studio monitor. I am afraid if i bought this one then i won’t be able to sell it.

I had HE-6 before and used it with speaker amp, best extended treble. Some called it bright on open grill mod. Thats how i like it. The reason why i am looking into this one because the mids are musical on focal. I had Focal Utopia headphone though and the Treble wasn’t fun. Yet very nice mids.you think i will like this one?
