I was trying to buy 2 more focal monitor speakers ( I already have 2 ) in order to set up a surround setup system for my home studio. www.focal.com/us/cms-50If I don't want to go with focal what is the alternative which might match the focal CMS50 ? Any suggestions? Many thanks

Not sure. They don't match the specs exactly but Bowers & Wilkins make nice speakers that seem similar.
The 606 S2 is $450 and -6dB @ 40Hz. The 706 S2 is $1000 and -6dB @45hz.

Isn't the CMS series already discounted? So you'll only find them used.. But I wouldnt' do surround system with different pairs of speakers. Surround setup is also more complicated to setup.

You might be able to find the B&W S1 versions on eBay or something. I have the 601 S1 and always thought they were pretty good for general listening. The 700 series sounded better but I heard them in a different room; they should for the price. Actually, I had the chance to hear the 800 series but declined - didn't want to have that kind of price point as a mental reference.
