Thanks Elco!!! The tweeter color alone is wrong already.  Crossover built is bad and the chrome magnet quality is bad as well!

You're welcome, bro! :)

Got those pics from the internet.

If I find some counterfeits in Banawe, I'll take pics of them too. :)

As I said ang galing talaga mameke ng China  :P

Gawa na lang sana sila ng sarili nilang brands kesa mameke pa.

btw, cno pala official dealer sa davao?

Focal


In Davao, we do not have an appointed dealer yet.  It use to be Music Mobile.  I have spoken with Atan since I have known him for over 10 years.  You can get from him or directly or just get them in Manila.  Cebu could be another option which is closer to you!

have forwarded this website to Focal and they will conduct investigation. So far, with their findings, the serial number 10A0070735 is not on Focal's production list so beware......that is the serial number of the products sold on this address. Focal 165V2 and 165V2S are made and assembled in France. None of the units were ever assembled in China nor are all the parts made in France as the seller BullSh*its!  :bs: :D
