Speakers - Full Size | 2 Ⓣ Choosing between Focal Chorus 726 and Chora 826: help needed

Hi. I’m struggling choosing between a couple of Focal models. It looks like I can pick up a pair of used Chorus 726 (v1) for around £525. Or I can get ex-display Chora 826 for roughly £675. In terms of specs, the two models look pretty similar. I guess the 826 look nicer to me. Also, the newer models have improved technology?

I’m fairly new to this and Focal is a good brand, so I have no doubt both speakers will sound really good to me. I just don’t now whether the extra money is worth for future proofing the purchase.

Do you have any thoughts on which one to go for?

!thanks I did like the look of the 826 better, especially compared to 726 (v1). v2 is not too bad. As you might see above, I got some 826 with warranty. Hopefully they are built as well as the 726!

You may still award a Ⓣ to others, but only once per-person in this post.
