Is Ray Smith (mobiletoys.co.uk) the only company selling Focal speakers in the UK ?? Can't find anyone else online selling them !?! |
CarAudioDirect don't do 'em to my knowledge.
try Car Audio Discount or Unbeatable Car Audio or Turners Online or MobileToys The Uk Distributor is: FOCAL JMLab UK PRODUCTS : JMlab - Focal Audiomobile - Focal HIFI Lonsdale House 52 Blucher Street Birmingham B1 1QU TEL : 0121 616 5126 FAX : 0121 616 5127 E-mail : info@focal-jmlab.co.uk |
Thanks guys, will take a look later.
Caraudiodirect don't do them , but goonasuk's link doesn't go to them anyway, it goes to caraudiodiscount !! Had me confused there for a minute !! What's your opinion of them chiark ?? I had a set of the 165A's and liked them. Are the higher end ones worth the money ?? Was thinking about the 165V's (£200 ish). |
They'll be a sod to fit ;) - I think they're deeper. To be honest, I've only heard the access range in an Impreza so couldn't really comment.
|
Yep, even the access's were a bit of fun fitting !! What do you think of the access's out of interest ?
|
On the whole, I liked 'em. Lots of midbass (very lots) and a fairly good sound. Still quite lively/bright, but more controlled treble than the Infinity IMHO.
For the money, it's difficult to find better but they are "fun" to fit in the new shape. |
DOH Forgot to change the title of the URL - was supposed to be CarAudioDiscount ;) Sorry for confusion
|
try cel-direct, they're good on price. Good luck with the fitting - just have patience!!!!
|
I had great difficulty having these fitted in a my03. in the end I gave up and sent them back (still awaiting refund).
They fit into classics ok. And I think rememember someone getting these into a new age but the 3 hi fi installers i took the focal access 165a's too couldnt see how to fit them in my my03. the cheapest place I found was http://www.car-hifi.co.uk/focal/itm00058.htm £ 115.99 & 10 delivery, but be warned they were not to pleased about taking them back because they didnt fit. |
Thanks guys. There for a P1 so fitting should be ok. I've put them in a UK classic 5 door before, so I know roughly what needs done.
That last compnayb seem to be the only one that drop from the RRP, so thanks for that :) Dave |
if you order, they will probably be the set I returned, nothing wrong with them, but still havent got my refund yet :-(.
you could always mention me in the notes as they havent replied to any e-mails. cheers Peter. |
Just a thought, but... Kartman, pbee... Why not...
You can see where I'm going with this, I'm sure :D |
I'm still deciding between the 165a's and 165v's, and I think pbee's already returned anyway. Nice idea though :) |
if you spent another hunred you could have the utopia's. Someone is selling a set in the classifieds section on CAD. I have them and they are with out a doubt awesome !!!
smurph |
Sorry for ignorance, but what's CAD ?? |

Bloomin' 'eck - almost as quick moving as scoobynet's for sale page !!
Thanks guys... :) |
Kartman,
Just bought a pair of Focal 165As from Turners - £99.99 + £10 postage. Eagerly awaiting their arrival tomorrow. Nige |
Enjoy ! I certainly liked them. Just trying to justify 300 notes for a set of utopias... !?!?!?
Anybody heard them in action ?? |
I have the Polly-K2's in a Teg and the sound very good indeed.
