• Beryllium inverted dome tweeter

The inverted dome tweeter is a hallmark of Focal.
As a result of more than twenty years of development into a tweeter
that could produce a high output, but without requiring high energy
input and without increasing directivity. The introduction of the
pure Beryllium dome, capable of covering 5 full octaves from 1,000
to 40,000Hz constitutes a new decisive advance regarding new
audio formats.
with unmatched speed and transparency. At first the pure Beryllium
tweeter was only available on the very high-end digital speakers of
the Focal Professional lines (SM8 & SM11), but is now featured on the

new SM6 series, allowing an unprecedented price/performance ratio.

• The “W” cone

Focal has been developing the technologies of composite sandwich
cones for more than 15 years. The "W" process (Glass/Foam/Glass),
used on the SM11, SM8 and SM6 lines, provides a true optimiza-a true optimiza­tion of the frequency response by fine tuning of mass, rigidity and
damping parameters.
and often contradictory parameters is at the base of the outstanding

sound neutrality of our speakers.

A custom designed amplication stage

Designing an amp to be integrated inside a speaker requires a very
different set of rules than for a traditional amp. Speaker size and
cooling concerns are often in contradiction with the high quality and
high power requirements of a sonically transparent speaker.
Our engineers used the BASH® technology to develop the bass/me­dium amplification circuit for the SM6 professional line of speakers.
This was the only way to exploit the best of class AB style circuits
(for exceptional quality) with a class D type yield, which is crucial
when housing a 150W RMS circuit in such a small space (300W RMS
for the Twin 6 and 350W RMS for the Sub6). A pure class AB circuit
is sufficient to power the -less energy demanding- high frequency
tweeter, allowing for an extremely wide bandwidth and exceptional
accuracy.
