ACI Speakers with Focal Drivers

Hi guys. I saw some of your older speakers use Focal drivers, and the newer tend to use Vifa. I have nOrh speakers with Scanspeak drivers now, and although I like them, they're a little dry for my taste.

I've heard other speakers with Focal drivers and they sounded very fast but with a very liquid, seductive midrange.

Which ACI speakers feature(d) the Focal drivers? I think I'd like to get my hands on a pair!

SS dry?? Focal more liquid? this seems backwards to me. must be the implementation.

I agree with you . . . and as far as I'm concerned, implementation is usually what matters.

As far as what ACI models used Focal mid-bass . . . the Sapphire series from about 15 years back until a couple of years ago when we switched to Vifa, and now ScanSpeak. We used a couple of different 7K dual voice coil series woofers.
