Credibility: I've owned HS8's, Rokit 8's, JBL LSR sub and mains, Adam AX8's. Amateur mixer for 10 years. What you should know about why these speakers are different: They are so accurate that I am truly struggle to mix on them.

I run a small mastering studio in Toronto, I have a set of Quested V3110 in my room,which are ruthlessly revealing. i bought the focal alpha 80 for my home studio where i produce techno and whatever else. pretty amazed that these are as accurate as they are at this price point.

These sound as good as monitors that are twice the price, absolutely fanominal, by far the best in this price range by quite a margin.

Since April 2015 they're in my homestudio set, I've been discovering them progressively since then and I guess they certainly need an extra breaking time, still they're already really good.

I initially had the FOCAL Alpha 65s and they were beyond outstanding. However, since 2005, I have always had Monitors with 8-Inch Woofers (along with my trusty Avantone Mix Cubes) and thought it best to move up to the Alpha 80s, so with the help of my friend and Sales Rep, Mark Bruhn, we made it all...

I'm truly amazed at the sound from these speakers. From keyboard sounds, recorded tracks, mixes.....it's all full, clean, punchy, and balanced. They are about half the price of the better Mackie's, Genlecs, etc....and to my ears, sound much better.

When first trying out these monitors 4 months ago, coming from HS8's, I didn't really like them and almost returned them. I do hiphop music, so the bass is very important. I like the music loud when I'm making beats and more at the mid to lower levels when mixing.
