The Creative Audio Review

This is a brand new model from Focal and we haven’t had a chance to listen to it yet! As it is an evolution of the previous Aria 906 model, which we loved, we are expecting great things. Stay tuned for our review when it arrives!


Sound Advice

  • The Focal Aria Evo X No. 1 will sound great right out of the box, but it will sound better after 75 - 100 hours of use.

  • For best results, we recommend a minimum of 12” of distance from the back wall to the back of the speaker.

  • The optional Focal S 900 stands will raise the Aria Evo X No. 1 to the perfect listening height.

  • We recommend high performance speaker cable to get the most out of your system.

Focal Aria Evo X No. 1 Technical Specifications

We provide this information from the manufacturer for those who want to know or who find it interesting. In our opinion, however, you shouldn’t pay too much heed to technical specs. How a speaker reacts to test tones in a lab is one thing. How it sounds playing music, a far more complex and nuanced signal than any test tone, is another. Knowledge is power and the best knowledge is not how a speaker ‘sounds’ to a microphone, but how it sounds to you.
