Focal Alpha 65 Evo Active 2-Way Studio Monitor
Overview
With its tweeter and 16.5 cm (6.5") woofer with a Slatefiber membrane—two speakers signed by Focal—Alpha 65 Evo is a monitoring enclosure with great dynamics, neutral tonal balance, and excellent sound consistency, whatever the listening environment. Its compactness and great versatility make it a discreet and efficient piece of equipment for all professionals.
Key Highlights
Polyvalence
Like the Alpha 50 and Alpha 80, the Alpha 65 Evo offers a host of features: TRS, XLR, and RCA inputs, a disengageable automatic standby mode, and wall and ceiling-mounting inserts for all types of studio work.
Perfect Integration
Its bass-reflex design with a large-section laminar vent, rounded contours, and robust side panels make the Alpha 65 Evo a modern piece of equipment that's easy to integrate into any room without compromising performance.
Advanced Technologies
Aluminum Tweeter: High-Finesse Treble
Manufactured by Focal, the inverted dome tweeter has been a signature since 1981. It offers the property of being a true micro loudspeaker. The curvature of the dome is significantly less pronounced than that of positive domes. This allows for better spatial dispersion and offers very low directivity, unlike ribbon tweeters. The inverted dome tweeter therefore generates unrivaled dynamics. In addition to the dome shapes, our engineers work on the materials. Here they chose aluminum, which increases the rigidity of the dome and reduces distortion. And to perfect the spatialization of the sound, a waveguide was developed. In the horizontal plane, the frequency response is within a deviation of +/- 0.5 dB. This performance guarantees an incredibly stable soundstage.
Slatefiber Membrane: Dynamic and Balanced Sound
Exclusive to Focal and made in France, the Slatefiber cone is made of recycled carbon fibers and thermoplastic polymer. In pursuit of perfection, our engineers have chosen to use non-woven carbon fibers oriented in the same direction to achieve even greater rigidity, damping, and lightness—the "essentials" of a good speaker. Recognized for its reproduction of dynamic, rich, and balanced sound, this cone has proven itself on numerous products for the home, for professionals in recording studios, and also for listening in cars.
