Active 2-way studio nearfield loudspeaker with two passive radiators:Shape 65 is the reference loudspeaker in the Shape series. Although it is designed for near-field monitoring, this monitor speaker offers unrivalled monitoring qualities across the entire frequency range. This monitor develops its full potential at monitoring positions of one metre and is simply a must in modern (home) studios.

Focal is expanding its Alpha series with the newly launched Alpha Evo. New features, new technologies, new design: the Alpha 50 Evo and Alpha 65 Evo studio monitors offer high performance at an unrivalled price in their market segment, making them the professional tools of choice for more people than ever before. With these new products, the French manufacturer is once again demonstrating its sound expertise and asserting its position as world market leader.PERFORMANCE & VERSATILITY:The Alpha 50 Evo and Alpha 65 Evo models are specially designed for music production and general music reproduction and ensure outstanding acoustic coherence regardless of the listening location. To further improve reproduction performance, Focal has opted for an aluminium tweeter with an inverted dome for wide sound dispersion and a carbon fibre cone. The recycled carbon fibre cone is manufactured exclusively by the French brand in Saint-Étienne and was chosen for its neutrality and dynamics. Focal is constantly revising its product range, drawing on over 40 years of expertise in the field of acoustics and its innovative strength. This is also underlined by the new large laminar port, which minimises distortion.NEW FEATURES:Evo stands for evolution. In addition to the analogue XLR and RCA sockets, the Alpha Evo monitors have a new TRS jack input (6.35 mm), an automatic standby mode that can be deactivated and inserts for wall and ceiling mounting: a truly versatile range (mixing, mastering, DJ, broadcasting). In terms of amplification, the speakers each have two Class D amplifiers. Their high current capacity gives you maximum control over the signal dynamics. In addition, high volumes can be achieved without distortion. Each speaker reproduces even the smallest details in the mix across all styles of music.DESIGN AND CABINET CONSTRUCTION:The monitors have a 15 mm thick MDF enclosure with internal bracing for maximum stability even at high sound pressure levels. The bass reflex design was chosen for easy acoustic integration even in the tightest of spaces. In terms of aesthetics, the classic cube shape of the monitor gives way to a design with rounded corners. The side panels ensure a sophisticated, robust and modern design that contributes to excellent acoustics and a unique and harmonious character across the entire range.
Active 2-way studio nearfield speaker with two passive radiators:Shape 50 shines as a monitor speaker due to its versatility. This monitor can be used at a listening distance of 80 cm and has an extremely wide bass response (50 Hz) in view of its compact design. Thanks to this design and the numerous adjustment options, this monitor speaker is ideal for rooms smaller than 12 m².
The Alpha 80 Evo has a 1" (25mm) aluminium tweeter and an 8" (20cm) woofer with a slate fibre cone, both of which are developed and manufactured in the Focal workshops in France. This monitor is characterised by excellent dynamics and a neutral sound balance. Thanks to new technologies and features, the Alpha 80 Evo is extremely versatile. The Alpha 80 Evo is perfect for producers looking for a high sound pressure level and precise low frequency reproduction at the same time.
The Alpha Twin Evo has a 1" (25mm) aluminium tweeter and two 6.5" (16.5cm) woofers with a slate fibre cone, which are developed and manufactured in Focal's workshops in France. This monitor is characterised by excellent dynamics and a neutral sound balance. Thanks to new technologies and features, the Alpha Twin Evo is extremely versatile. Alpha Twin Evo is perfect for producers who want both high sound pressure levels and precise low frequency reproduction.
The Sub6's voluminous housing is equipped with an 11-inch woofer and a reflex port at the rear. This configuration ensures linear bass reproduction - regardless of the sound pressure level. The numerous adjustment options, such as the high-pass crossover designed for monitors and the adjustable parameters for phase and volume, ensure optimum connection to the Solo6 Be and Twin6 Be monitors. The subwoofer of high-pass and the outputs can be deactivated via a footswitch input connected here. This simplifies and significantly improves monitoring control in the various monitoring phases.
Listen Professional, the ideal partner for music production:The Listen Professional represents all of Focal's expertise. For six years now, the French manufacturer's many years of experience in transducer design have been brought to bear in a new area of specialisation: headphones. The Listen Professional circumaural, closed-back headphones are an indispensable tool for music production. They underpin Focal's ambition to establish itself as a leading supplier in the field of professional headphones.
This dual monitor was specially developed for demanding sound engineers who are looking for an ideal solution for use in the nearfield and midfield. Thanks to its extreme neutrality, precise stereo imaging and reproduction of the most subtle sound characteristics, it is the perfect choice for even the most critical sound engineers. In addition, the class G amplifiers in the mid-range and for the subwoofer deliver an extremely high sound pressure level that also meets the demands of modern music production.

The Sub One is a subwoofer consisting of two 8" (20 cm) slate fibre cone woofers and is manufactured in France by Focal. It has a total RMS power of 200 W and covers the frequency band from 32 Hz to 120 Hz. The Sub One offers high dynamics with low distortion. The Sub One has been designed to be placed close to a wall, making it easy to position in a room, against a wall or under a desk. This is achieved, among other things, by the impulse-compensated arrangement of the two bass speakers, the shallow depth of the subwoofer and the bass reflex openings at the front.
Shape Twin, the secret weapon for everyone:One year after the launch of the Shape 40, 50 and 65 monitor models, Focal presents its new reference product in this segment: Shape Twin. The new flagship of the series offers two passive cones, a new woofer with Flax cone and the latest inverted aluminium/magnesium dome tweeter with M-profile. Like the Shape 40, 50 and 65 models, the Shape Twin is manufactured in France. Tailored to the requirements of near-field monitoring, the Shape monitors combine an ingenious design with various indispensable adjustment options for acoustic adaptation to small listening rooms. The Shape Twin is characterised in particular by its excellent coverage of the entire audio spectrum, an extended bass range and exceptional sound power for its size. Thanks to its compact dimensions, the monitor can even be used in the smallest of rooms. The decisive advantage here is the 2.5-way design, which allows precise assessment of the bass and lower mid-range frequencies that are typically difficult to control in small rooms.
