'We know what speakers need' - a bold claim but not without reason

It has been more than 20 years now that Focal has been designing, engineering and manufacturing the finest and most advanced loudspeakers for automobiles available. It is a fact that in virtually all car installations our speakers are accompanied with power amplifiers. Through the years this has given sample time to listen to and compare a wide variety of amplifiers from all makes and models and how well they perform and complement our speakers. This allowed us to discover what works and what does not.

So now, based on our own intimate understanding of our speakers and the experience we have accumulated on how best to use them, we can say “we know what speakers need”.

So it is with great confidence that Focal is launching its own line of power amplifiers that we feel best suit to this task. Comprised of six models, each piece highlights innovations acquired from over three years of intense research dedicated to the study of the integral relationship that exists between speakers and amplifiers, which Focal conducted in its development of a new line of powered studio monitors for the recording industry.

In fact the signal processing technology (DSP) used in the Dual Monitor amplifier is derived directly from the Focal Pro line.

As expected from their origin, the primary qualities of all Focal Power amplifiers are extreme reliability and stability, pure sonic fidelity and unwavering power, presented with the classic elegance and efficiency in design that Focal is known for.

From the simplest install to the most complex and elaborate system, you will find everything you could possibly need in the Focal Power amplifier line to bring your design to life.

Best of all, by now using the amplifiers that have been conceived to ideally power our speakers, you will be able to design complete Focal systems that are perfectly integrated to produce the most harmonious rendering of music, in the “Spirit of Sound”.

 

Two amplifier ranges, Solid and Focal Power:

  • the FP range which includes Dual Monitor, this range maintains superior sound quality

  • The new SOLID range has robust construction, small footprint, yet maintains sound quality expected of a Focal amplifier.

SOLID comprises three amplifier types: a mono bloc amplifier, a two-channel, and a four-channel. The mono and the 4 channel retail for $549 and the two-channel retails for $399

Features of this range are:

  • available in two striking colours: black or red. Specify the colour when you order

  • robust construction with heavy heat sinks

  • no digital amplifiers used (also with the FP range) for sound-quality reasons

  • remote bass controllers included with the mono and four-channel

  • high-level inputs which trigger the amp on and off when they sense signal on the speaker wires. This facilitates use with factory head units.

  • available now

the heavy chassis and massive heat sink make the SOLID range extremely reliable

     

Dynamic soft clipping

Power without distortion

 

Connectors

RCA connectors are often very vulnerable to breakage as they typically take the highest amount of rough treatment. This is avoided by using a higher quality of part and the application of flat or screwed connectors on the side panel. The power terminal blocks and loudspeaker also share this same logic

of development and are all oversized for a more reliable and secure connection.
