CUSTOM INTEGRATION I 2019
INVISIBLE
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 Custom Integration
Collection is an opportunity to
live an entirely new experience.
With an absolute discretion,
our in-wall and in-ceiling
loudspeakers give a new
dimension to your music,
whether in a stereo or Home
Cinema set-up and create an
all-encompassing atmosphere.
They will take you beyond
sound, and allow you to
rediscover the sensations
provided by sound with
unrivalled purity.
This experience is represented
by Focal’s signature
‘Listen Beyond’, which
embodies the intention to make
each moment in life a moment
of intense pleasure.
SOUND
Our philosophy aims at
promoting
‘made in France’:
100% of Focal products are
designed and developed by
our engineers, and most of our
collections is made in France
in our own workshops.
All Focal products benefit
from innovations which result
from on-going research
in the field of acoustics.
This constant quest plunges
the R&D teams further and
further into the secret realms
of sound and material science.
This technological heritage,
protected with numerous
patents, ensures a sound which
is clear, powerful and true to
nature; to provide the best
loudspeakers in each category.
The art of reproducing music
is the art of creating a deeper
emotional connection.

THE CEDIA DESIGNER
An online database dedicated
to Home Cinema Systems
Our CI product ranges are available on The
CEDIA Designer (TCD), the multiple award
winning global cloud-base design software.
Crucially, using TCD allows integrators
to confidently design technically perfect
immersive multichannel home theatres in a
matter of minutes.
This global cloud-bases design software
brings the entire cinema design process
into one place: the user enters in the dimensions of the room and then works methodically through the entire cinema design. TCD
specifies the precise location of the loudspeakers, screen, seating, projector, provides
amplification and processor requirements,
calculates the RT60 value, and much more.
TCD offers high-end integration options
that it calculates in regard to optimise a
system for bespoke acoustic environment.
And this is on this database that you can
now find not only Focal Custom Integration speakers but also high-fidelity Sopra &
Kanta loudspeakers as well as audio-video
processor and amplifier Astral 16.

ACCESSORIES
ELECTRA
The loudspeaker disappears,
and sound reveals itself
The Electra range embodies technological
excellence at the service of the absolute
finest sound: Focal’s core values in just
a few words. This product offer is a truly
compact and invisible alternative for a
traditional audio system for your home. The
sophisticated design of this line enables it
to compete with high-end loudspeakers. It
inherits its characteristics and performance
from Focal Home Classic line, in particular
Utopia. The source of the sound’s clarity and
the finesse of the details is beryllium, a robust
material used for the tweeter.
These sound reinforcement solutions are
built-in systems which perfectly integrate
your interior, and are designed to provide
high-definition audio without altering the
original architecture. Sound spatialisation
was studied closely in order to deliver
exceptional acoustics to your environment,
regardless of the listening position within
the room.
Perfect for meeting the expectations of
music lovers and cinema enthusiasts, the
3-way in-wall Electra Be loudspeakers can
be installed horizontally or vertically.
It is possible to use them as in-wall loudspeakers or mounted to the wall thanks to the
on-wall frames sold separately (see picture
below). You can enjoy a system that adapt to
all kind of configurations included an exceptional Home Cinema installation.

TECHNOLOGIES
Music at its best is invisible. With the Electra
line, technological excellence meets ultimate
discretion. Let yourself be stunned by every
detail and experience movies with a Home
Cinema system, without seeing it.
Refined detail and exceptional sound:
Electra allows you to immerse yourself into a
Home Cinema experience with a difference.
'W' SANDWICH CONE
The 'W' composite sandwich cone was designed to
ensure a perfect optimisation of the frequency response curve thanks to the total control of three key
parameters: lightness, rigidity and damping. In terms
of sound, the 'W' composite sandwich cone provides
totally transparent sound and very low distortion.
KEY POINTS
BERYLLIUM TWEETER
The rigidity of beryllium is so high that it’s the only
metal that can scratch glass. This is why it is the material
of choice for tweeter cones! Its price - 50 times more
expensive than gold- means that it’s reserved for those
with the highest expectations in terms of acoustics.
Today, the beryllium tweeter has been integrated into
our top end lines.
HIGH-END SUBTLETY
READY-TO-PAINT
The grille is ready
to paint to ensure
optimal integration
into your home.
MAGNETIC
GRILLES
Magnetic grilles,
so that they are easy
to mount to the
loudspeakers.
EDGELESS
Edgeless, built-in
loudspeakers,
making them even
less noticeable.
EXCELLENCE

the music will reveal
all its secrets and
all its nuances.
