Amplification Warning

The Chora product sheet writes its sensitivity condition with a comma decimal - «Sensitivity (2,83V/1m) 89.5dB» - and its power range with a slash instead of a dash, «40/200W». Both are the same quantities the Vestia sheet writes with a point and a dash; the numbers are unambiguous, the formatting is not consistent across Focal's own catalogue. The impedance minimum, 4 ohms, exists only in this PDF: the web product page for Chora 816 carries no specification table at all.
