Power Flower

This unique magnet technology delivers a number of key advantages to Focal’s high-end speaker designs. The array of double stacked ferrite rings in a circular open pattern distributed around the voice coil creates an extremely powerful magnetic field. This creates a highly efficient bass driver. In addition there is the added benefit of built-in cooling thanks to the free circulation of air around the magnet stacks. Interestingly, the harder the woofer works, the more air is forced through these open vents and thus the greater the cooling effect. Yet another advantage is the reduction of mechanical compression; the open nature of the design means there is no trapped air and this allows the cone to move freely, enhancing the speed and dynamics inherent in this unique magnet technology.

Pure Beryllium

A rare and precious metal, Beryllium’s incredible rigidity makes it ideal for use in dome tweeter design. Focal, at their factories in France, created a world first: a pure Beryllium inverted dome tweeter capable of reproducing more than five octaves of sound, from 1,000 Hz to 40 kHz. The ideal tweeter is not only rigid but light. Aluminium and titanium are known for their rigidity and yet Beryllium is seven times more rigid than these materials in dome designs of identical mass. This rigidity allows for incredible linearity and acoustic transparency, properties that are responsible for the jaw-dropping high frequency performance of the Focal Utopia Evo range of luxury speakers.
