History

Mike opened his first shop in Yeovil over 24 years ago, stocking and demonstrating a range of quality hi-fi products not before available outside of the larger towns.

Mike's enthusiasm for music, especially live concerts, led him along the road in search of a realistic and enjoyable sound system for the home. On his quest Mike admits that he made many mistakes, often being seduced by 'flavour of the month' magazine reviews and cosmetic appeal. The pressure of the commission based salesman also took it's toll.

In an endeavour to fulfil his desire, Mike decided to make a career change, leaving the security of a family based business, to work in a reputable hi-fi shop for over twelve years before branching out on his own.

The staff at both of the Mike Manning Audio stores are all music and home cinema enthusiasts, NOT commission based salesmen. Between them they have amassed over 50 years experience of demonstrating, selling and installing 'quality' audio and video equipment. Their customer's have learned to trust their judgement and expertise.

Over the last few years Mike Manning have also become much more involved with 'custom install' of 'multi-room' systems both in domestic as well as commercial environments.

Demonstrations, of both Hi-fi and Home Cinema, are carried out in a relaxed and un-pressured manner, making it a more pleasurable experience choosing your heart's (and Ears) desire.

Mike Manning Audio is an independant company NOT a franchise!
The product range that we demonstrate and sell is carefully chosen
by us for it's performance. not review or commercially led.

focal  DOMES

Domes

Guide Price £1500

The Focal Dôme, a unique high-end miniature loudspeaker (also available in 2.0, 2.1, and 5.0 packs), designed to let you rediscover true musical performance, without constraints and without encroaching on your environment.
A high-end loudspeaker through its design, the quality of the chosen materials, its “made in France” origin, its 100% Focal technology stemmed from the most prestigious loudspeakers.
High-end also in its performance, inversely proportional to the object size, that’s to say radically different from what you could expect from mini loudspeakers so far.
Discover Dôme, a concentrate of Focal know-how.
An entirely different league of performance above the likes of Monitor Audio/KEF/Mission/Quad etc.

focal  705 VB

705

Guide Price £306

Chorus 705 V is the ideal loudspeaker for rooms of modest dimensions (approximately 15m2). With a responsive and lively bass, it represents the foundations of a great system, and is musically vastly more involving than many so-called “5 Star” chinese sourced speakers at the price!
Grab yourself an audition, you'll not be dissapointed!

 

focal  706 VB

706

Guide Price £400

Chorus 706 V is the epitome of a reference, compact loudspeaker: a true Focal tradition. Superbly balanced and neutral, its accuracy and definition are ideal for rooms near 20m2 without the false aggression or ponderous bass of it's rivals at the price.

 

focal  806 V

806

Guide Price £563

Neutral and balanced, the Chorus 806 V seduces by the richness of its upper midrange and the speed of its bass. An entirely open and musical speaker, ideal to play in rooms under 20m2 without any limits.

 

 

focal  807 V

807

Guide Price £686

This good-looking, two-way speaker has the true spirit of the legendary DB 19: fast powerful bass, a big speaker for a guaranteed rock'n'roll sound and yet all the finesse for classical, soul, and jazz as well.

 

focal  1008 BE

1008be

Guide Price £2715

The Electra 1008 Be embodies Focal's know-how in terms of high-end compact loudspeakers. Added to the essential qualities of the 1007 Be, a more spacious and natural sound image, improved definition and more precise bass.
The high power-handling enables it to work in rooms of big dimensions. The precise implementation of the exceptional Beryillium tweeter a supremely open top end which benefits your perception of the entire frequency range!

 

focal  816 WSE

816v

Guide Price £1539

With the WSE model, Focal have taken the concept of the thunderous 816V and implemented their highly coveted W sandwich cone drive units to vastly improve speed, timing and detail. A modern classic in the making.

 

focal  826 WSE

826wse

Guide Price £1926

As the 816WSE is a turbo charged version of the 816V, so the 826WLE is vastly improved version of the 826V. Power, speed, detail and spaciousness are all hallmark traits of the 826WLE.

Note: All Focal speakers are very 'amplfier friendly' that is to say thatthey don't need massive power to drive them. They also build into some VERY special home cinema speaker systems!
