As a new year approaches, many people start considering the changes they’d like to make in their lives, health, and homes. For some, that means making the time for the high-intensity interval training they’ve been meaning to start since summer arrived. For others, it’s Tai Chi. 

If there’s one thing we can rely on within the human race, it's the differences in opinions and preferences. However, there is one commonality many of us share—a love of music.  

Studies show that music triggers the release of dopamine, a neurotransmitter associated with pleasure. It relieves pain and evokes emotions and memories. It motivates us and inspires us. As part of our history, it provides a shared experience and a common language used across all cultures. 

Something this powerful deserves a special place in your home. And that’s where Focal Audio comes in. 

Here, we’ll explore how this world-renowned audio manufacturer is transforming the listening experience in homes throughout Boston, MA, and the surrounding areas.

That carefully recorded soundstage, the precise placement of instruments, the sense of space between the guitar and vocalist—it's all there in the original recording, waiting for the right setup to reveal it.

Let's explore why serious Boston music lovers choose stereo over surround, and a couple of examples of what those systems might look like in your Massachusetts home.
