Focal shape Twin User Manual

SHAPE TWIN

Product Data Sheet

Shape Twin is the standard bearer of the Shape series and stands out through its excellent rendering of the whole
audio spectrum, in addition to its broad frequency response in the low end, and to its high SPL considering its
size. The compact design makes it easy to integrate, even into the most cramped of rooms. Its 2.5-way design
gives it a decisive advantage when it comes to controlling the bass and lower mid-range registers which are the
hardest to control in small rooms. This monitor will express its full potential from a listening distance of three
feet away (1 metre).
