Hello everyone,
Long time reader here, I finally decided to post and ask for your help
I currently have an Audiolab 6000A wich I'm quite happy with, paired with Triangle Comet 902.
I want to upgrade my system and I'm hesitating between two speakers, the Elac DBR 62 or the Focal Aria 906 (models limited also by the looks, it will be in my living room and my wife doesn't really like the look of most speakers)
My usage : movies for the "family usage" and music listening (by streaming or LP) for me
Also feel free to tell me if you think the upgrade won't be really noticeable when compared to my current Triangle. It would bother me to spend this amount of money for a minor improvement.
What do you think ? Can you help me choose ?
Thanks

- Is one of the 2 better than the other ?
- If it's approximately the same in terms of sound quality, which will pair better with my Audiolab ?
- I'm in France, and I never could find a store to listen to the Elac (for 2 years that I'm looking for an opportunity). I have found a store to listen to the Aria though. I'm trying to understand the sound differences on Youtube but it's not really representative. And I feel bad asking a local store guy to order some speakers to try at my home and potentially give them back.
- In terms of budget :
- For the Elac, in France, it's around 550€ on Amazon, and 600€ in a local store
- For the Aria, the store I found wanted to let go of his "exposition Aria 906 model" for around 15% of the lowest price on the net (because of the newer Focal model arriving), so it should end up around 500-550€ for the Aria.
Also feel free to tell me if you think the upgrade won't be really noticeable when compared to my current Triangle. It would bother me to spend this amount of money for a minor improvement.
