CLASSIC COLLECTION I 2020
For four decades, Focal has been applying its unique sound signature to speaker drivers and high-end loudspeakers. We are known for our innovative approach which has given rise to exclusive technologies, and some of our loudspeakers have become world class references. THE THRILL OF HIGH-FIDELITY SOUND The Classic Collection is an opportunity to live an entirely new experience.
NEW CHORA Renewal without repetition; constant progression: this has always been our leitmotif. Picking up where Chorus left off, the Chora line is the new addition to the Focal catalogue, making High-Fidelity accessible to all music lovers with leading products in their price category. These innovative loudspeakers bring Focal technology into your home. Manufactured in France, the speaker drivers include the Slatefiber cone, a new feature exclusive to Focal, drawing on 40 years of acoustic research.
CLASSIC Our classic line embodies the spirit of HighFidelity. Over the years, successive legendary models have produced a collection of loudspeakers which are unique worldwide. The highlights of the era were the three generations of Grande Utopia loudspeakers which were widely acclaimed on an international scale. Anything that seems to be impossible represents a new challenge for us.
UTOPIA III EVO The legend is evolving The Grande Utopia story started in 1995 with a major innovation: the 'W' composite sandwich cone. It went on in 2002 with the Grande Utopia Be that introduced the pure Beryllium inverted dome tweeter. Its entire DNA is marked by innovation: each generation of this reference loudspeaker brings with it major advances. Let's take Beryllium and Focus Time, for example... a showcase of Focal savoir-faire.
Grande Utopia has left an indelible mark with each generation. It is the most accomplished Focal concept, and the ultimate acoustic reference. This loudspeaker now marks another stage by integrating the most recent Focal technologies: the NIC motor, the TMD suspension, the reinforcement rings and a new-generation crossover system. With its exceptional performance and unique style, Grande Utopia EM Evo is no longer just a technological landmark, it is an acoustic sculpture.
Distinguished and captivating, this bookshelf loudspeaker represents the ultimate vision of compactness, in the purest Focal tradition. Inspired by Grande Utopia EM, the definition of the midrange and treble is spellbinding, and the density and hold of the bass is like nothing that's ever been heard before. It completes the Utopia III Evo line by retaining its sound tuning, but gets the new Evo finishes. Which are always in keeping with the look of the line.
SOPRA Reveal the invisible At Focal, we’re obsessed with the comprehensive result: a harmonically rich, lush sound; a transparent and precise reproduction of the musical work. Still, we’ve never lost track of our core expertise in loudspeaker drivers, the stepping stones along the path to great sound. Utopia is undeniably a world reference, praised for its incredible musicality.
Compact and powerful, Sopra N°1 is a distillation of technological innovation. It features Neutral Inductance Circuits NIC, Tuned Mass Damping surround TMD for the midrange woofer, and Infinite Horn Loading IHL for the tweeter. It is a true demonstration of the contribution of the new technologies implemented on Sopra. The special stand has been designed to ground interfering vibrations from the enclosure to the floor to avoid any colouration.
KANTA Performance meets style! Kanta renews the Premium enclosure segment through its design and the technology.
Compact and high-performing, this bookshelf loudspeaker has surprising extension of the frequency response in the bass for its size. The performance of the next generation IAL tweeter adds the finishing touch to the modern, ingenious design of this sound equipment. Its full potential is revealed in a room of less than 269 ft² (25 m2). Kanta N°2 is a three-way floorstanding loudspeaker totally dedicated to performance.
ARIA 900 Affordable High-End More than twenty years after the launch of the 'W' sandwich cone, we were delighted to unveil a new major innovation: speaker drivers with the same sandwich structure, but composed of a natural flax-fibre cone. This innovation is the result of more than five years of research and a unique drive to work on the actual source of the emission of sound.
The Aria 906 bookshelf loudspeaker is faithful to the DNA of the Aria range: refined high-end acoustics combined with excellent value. This 2-way loudspeaker allows users to enjoy all the qualities of the Flax cone: neutrality, presence and finesse. Aria 906 is recommended for rooms measuring from 160ft2 (15m2) and from a listening distance of 8ft (2.5m). Aria 926 embodies the home 3-way floorstanding loudspeaker. This musical and expressive loud speaker is easy to install.
