I haven’t listened to these monitors yet, so you’ll see my first and honest reaction in real time!
Whenever I try out new speakers, I always reference songs that I know and love. If you’ve been subscribed for a while, you’ll know where I’m going with this! I’m a huge Queen fan, and I always reference Bohemian Rhapsody since it’s a song that I’ve heard, oh I don’t know.. about 11,000 times! haha! I also know how the song sounds in this room.
I’m also going to listen to songs that I’ve recorded and mixed.
The Shape twins are smoother on the top end, with a spectacular low end, they're pretty darn good. They have a-lot more in the low end and low mids!

I bought myself a pair of Focal Solo 6 Be Monitors and they are so incredible. When I heard my mixes through them all my mistakes were apparent. They sound incredibly “transparent”.

@Producelikeapro 5 лет назад

Tim Ball wow! That’s great to hear my friend! Thanks for sharing your insight!!

@timball8429 5 лет назад

Warren, thanks also for the interview with Bobby O. There is a great video of his on RU-vid ( ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-1d9WmjTJniI.html ) talking about isolating rooms, setting up monitors and studios to optimise the use of monitors.

@benediktknaup360 5 лет назад

I think the membrane on the side is called a "passive radiator". I tried to build a speaker using one a while ago but it required a lot more knowledge and math than I had expected. No wonder why speakers from big brands sound so flat and responsive, when they've spend years figuring out how to build them properly :)

@Producelikeapro 5 лет назад

Hi Benedict, thanks ever so much for sharing! It definitely sounds like that description!

@inthemix 5 лет назад

Giveaway like a pro. Very beautiful monitors and I liked the idea of Equal distance testing :) Oh you're a Queen fan? Never knew ;) (EDIT - I really like this real world reaction sort of test, it's not one of those flashy edited reviews and it comes of as incredibly genuine and real. We all appreciate it!)

Just got a pair of Shape Twins. Running them in, but they already sound marvellous! Paid a tribute and listened to Bohemian Rhapsody (of course), and I had the impression Freddy Mercury was there, in the room with me. Thanks for all the fresh ideas and explanations you bring. I know this video is 2 years old, but I discovered it recently, so for me it's all new, like my fantastic Focals! Thanks:-)

Nice review! I got a pair of shape 65s a couple months ago to replace genelec 8020s and I absolutely love the focals!! I actually found it really easy changing from the genelecs to focals because I think they are quite similar sounding for mixing.

@sexybeardedvikingwizardthe4746 5 лет назад

Interesting to note that you described them as being a very flat response and as it turned out the adjustments were at 0. Strikes me that as a design that is spot on as a platform to move forward as you did with tweaking to get the response pattern as you prefer.

@Producelikeapro 5 лет назад

Sexy Bearded Viking Wizard the Badass Aussie it’s a very simple idea. The main things I noticed were a different in the low mids and the high end. The speakers have those adjustments and it worked great!

@pMx-rx4up 5 лет назад

i've compared them with Shape 65 and Twins have definitely less low-end even when the LF knob was on the highest value and 65's LF knob was on "2". Stereo image is great.

@Producelikeapro 5 лет назад

pMx 7001 I love using these alongside my other monitors!!

@cun7us 5 лет назад

pMx 7001 I also own the Shape 65's and pretty happy with them. Apparently the Twins handle the low end better as they have one driver specifically for the mids and the other for the lows. However, they're both 5" woofers as opposed the Shape 65 which has a 6.5" woofer, so you're probably right about them having less low end.

@envo6539 4 года назад

im really having a tough time deciding between the Adam a7x, focal shape 65, and these focal shape twins. Small room, not treated the best, mostly mixing and producing. what do you think? this is my first huge upgrade. coming from the kali audio lp6.

@Daniel_de_lux 4 года назад

Well coming from kali audio all will be sound like gold to you.. my focal twin arrives tomorrow! Whitout question they are the best choice i suggest serch info about focal and you ll see what a talking about👌🏻

@janminor1172 5 лет назад

These are a bit too big for my setup, but I fell in love with the smaller Shape 65 when I compared different monitor boxes at musicstore a while ago. Very precise, great stereo image and all in all a pleasure to listen to. Definitely a strong contender in their price range. Still over a thousand bucks, though. But someday I’m gonna get those as a present for myself ;)

@Producelikeapro 5 лет назад

Jan Minor yes, I understand! We went to VK with the MasterClass and fell in love with those speakers, the Shape 65!

Polk Audio used to make speakers that used passive radiators (that's what they called them...) for low end on some of their smaller cabinets, most notably their Series 5 speakers.

@TheSoundConnoisseur 2 года назад

@Producelikeapro Год назад

@DMerkel 5 лет назад

These look great, and by your assessment, Warren, are good monitors. The 'passive radiator' concept (I prefer your "resonant speaker thing') is really intriguing. I've researched them a bit. Focal is claiming those passive radiators help maintain the tonal balance across various SPL levels, and the tweeters disperse, rather than focus, the radiated highs. Did you hear all that in the Focals when you tested them next to your Genelecs, both before and after your rear-speakers tonal adjustments?

@Producelikeapro 5 лет назад

Hi Dave, yes, I was very impressed! Yes, passive radiator or resonant speaker, Haha each work for me! Thanks for your great comment my friend!

@phreshone1 5 лет назад

Polk used to make passive radiator based speakers in the 80s. Still use them

@SirEggbertfartalot 5 лет назад

yes, Kef also used passive radiators, Kef reference 104ab's for example. T27 tweeter, B200 mid/woofer, +BD139 Passive bass radiator (not B139 bass driver). 1976 -> 1980

Thank you for this review. I have a question for you: I noticed you're facing Genelec 1031A. I've been a pro sound engineer, recording & mixing many albums with 1031A. I'm building up a home studio after years and I'm considering Focal Shape Twins or KRK 10 G4. What choice would you suggest me? Does Focal have the same character of Genelecs?

@VangelisPapatzanakis 2 года назад

Hello Warren! Between these and the shape 65s, which ones you prefer?

@Fenrir_Beernaert 5 лет назад

Hello Warren, thanks for this wonderful review! Do these side thingies you call "reasonant driver", as you describe taking care of the low end, make it so that you actually wouldn't even need a woofer?

Hello Warren, hope you are doing well. Just another question, how do you feel about Marshall amps, specifically the JCM 2000 or better known as the DSL 100s

@Producelikeapro 5 лет назад

Hi Tyler Schubert I’m a huge fan of all things Marshall my friend! Those are great amps! I have three Marshall’s and love them all!

@BigDancin 5 лет назад

I have a JCM 2000 TSL100 head, which I believe is the same as the DSL except for a third channel. It is a rock beast with a great clean channel too. My biggest problem is I don't have the opportunity to play it loud anymore. I have a Palmer speaker simulator/power soak to use it in the studio, and I can use cabinet IRs to get a great recording sound, but I miss blaring it out of my 4x12 cabinet and feeling my shirt shake when it got to "5"!

@bond4177 5 лет назад

Hey, I've been looking forward to this review from you actually! I am really interested in these monitors myself, currently I use an old pair of JBL's I got at a garage sale, but I'd like to upgrade to these. Heard them at the Moog Store in Toronto, very beautiful monitors.

@conrow1157 7 месяцев назад

What’s your advice for the sweetspot for this speakers? I found out that’s like it more to sit more between them and not in the perfect triangle. But I get a bit confused because when I move my head back just 5 cm the sound completely changes. I already made a Sonarworks measurement and checked the 30 degree angele etc. but there is still a gap exactly at 62hz and a huge push at 120hz. But this is changing drastically when I move my head within the sweetspot! Any hints?

@peterbrandt7911 5 лет назад

Me too, and without wanting to offend Amazon, it pleases me, that there a at least some big music stores, which can offer stuff at a better price. I checked again, the average price here is maybe around 1700-1800€, which is a hell lot of money for most people, but compared to genelec and alike a steal.

I've been drooling on these since they came out… Anyhow, Warren, maybe you could consider getting to know copyright-free songs and use them for these kinds of tests? Even through a tiny mic, you can hear interesting différences. Thanks for doing what you do Warren!

Why is there so little about these monitors anywhere on the net?

@stelthtenau 2 года назад

I've had these for the last 2 months. Incredible speakers for small rooms. If things are wrong they sound wrong. But also very enjoyable to listen to. Huge sweet spot and consistent timbre as you move around. I haven't even bothered doing a sound ID Reference calibration yet because they just sound right(i will eventually but meh if its not broke). Highly recommend

@Produce Like A Pro Are you using Spotify when doing these references? Or its it some lossless apple format? Is there a huge difference these days when listening (not recording&mixing) between wav and 320kbps. Most people will probably not notice, but im just asking since you're testing out studio monitors. Thanks!

trollstjerne you rock my friend!! Best of luck to you and everyone else!!

@Producelikeapro 5 лет назад

trollstjerne I’m using Spotify, it’s a comparative test and I really believe in real world tests! That very important to me!

From my Adam's to the ns10m's, the low mid is always a troubled area for my room. It's a well treated room, but sounds like these would be a good addition. Thanks for the "marvelous" review! 🙂🤘

@Producelikeapro 5 лет назад

Bryan David indeed! That’s always been my experience as well, cluttered low mids make mixing quite difficult indeed and will result in me over compensating in that area!

You guys know he probably was paid to praise these monitors. He had the Focal higher end Trio for a while in his studio and praised them as well. But he loves Genelc's.

@Producelikeapro Год назад

I don’t currently have the Genelecs up in any of it rooms. I rotate speakers throughout all of my rooms as it’s important to me to be able to speak from actual knowledge of using the speakers.

@Producelikeapro Год назад

These speakers are currently on loan to a friend who just built an Atmos system using them and they sound amazing

@revelationsoundstudio Год назад

@Produce Like A Pro Thank you for your response. I have respect for your knowledge and experience in the studio. It just bothers me that everyone praises monitors on all cost levels when doing reviews and don't mention much about cons. Not sure I would want to keep changing monitors in my studio all the time. It takes time to learn the monitor character in your room especially after they open up a bit. It took me a while to learn my Focal monitors. But now I have such confidence that my mixes are what I want. There is no need to go to the car stereo or anywhere else to double check. Granted I have a smaller powered Yamaha monitors as a 2nd source and Beyer 1990 headphones.
