New Media Catalogue Between acoustic excellence and new trends… With 35 years of experience in the design and manufacture of speaker drivers and hi-fi loudspeakers, Focal has also been displaying its expertise in new ways to listen to music in recent years. This is the DNA of the New Media Collection: while its design and miniaturization are different from the usual form of our traditional loudspeakers, the heart of the product, the authenticity of the sound, the quest for excellence, are exactly the same... Focal has always focused all its attention on the reproduction of a textured and rich sound. Our unique know-how, our many patented technological innovations, the use of specific materials: all of these components are symbols of the attention we pay down to the smallest details. Details that enable us to better manage all of the factors that influence sound quality. Controlling the mass, rigidity and damping provides our cones with strong acceleration and low distortion. The result is dynamic real and natural sound that is unique to Focal, and a major asset in terms of responding to the demands of audiophiles and other music lovers. At the same time, the music world has undergone many changes in recent years. Access to music is easier than ever with files going digital. The trend towards miniaturization has opened the door to new players, the "plug & play" solutions are buzzing all around, sources are many and wireless, and TVs are becoming sources in their own right. In short, uses evolve and music is everywhere, at the flick of a switch. In this context, Focal decided to integrate these new ways of listening into its range, including miniaturization of speakers, but without compromising the quality of the music, which forms a core part of our values. This challenge required the expertise of our enthusiastic engineers and gave rise to the New Media Collection: multimedia wireless speakers, mini Home Cinema systems and satellites, subwoofers or even headphones all have the characteristic of a tailor-made design and with great ease of use and integration. The New Media Focal are products adapted to new uses, to which we applied the formulas that have made our classic ranges a success to bring out real hi-fi products and to remain true to our values while satisfying our customers of today and tomorrow. > F or over 35 years Focal has been developing and manufacturing loudspeakers for the home, speaker drivers for the car, monitor speakers for recording studios and more recently headphones. Market leader in high-fidelity, Focal’s worldwide reputation is well known: our brand is recognised everywhere for its sound quality and its numerous technological innovations. Dimension, The Real TV Sound Building on 35 years of expertise when it comes to the expectations of music and home-cinema fans in terms of sound, Focal infuses its acoustic know-how into a new sound object: the soundbar Dimension.

Its innovative concept when it comes to shape, Sphear has redefined the approach towards the ear canal: memory foam or silicone tips on the front adapt naturally to the ear; an extended housing at the back shifts the weight of the headphones to the inferior auricle of the ear. This relieves the ear canal from excessive volume and weight which generally resulted in temporary discomfort. 10.8-mm transducers successfully provide surprising tonal balance never heard before in this family of headphones. It is faithful to Focal’s historic acoustic signature, the “Spirit of Sound”, with a particularly rich mid-range which is never muffled. Moreover, the bass level on Sphear has been slightly increased for mobile use in noisy environments. Finally, these in-ear headphones offer harmonic richness from the low end to the high end, for true listening pleasure. Sphear are the most accomplished in-ear headphones to date, the most comfortable and the most generous for enjoying your music, wherever you are. In this age of “HighResolution”, through its spherical design and its preservation of Focal’s acoustic signature, Sphear provides a unique solution for those passionate for high-definition sound.

In a studio environment, comfort is critical for a professional headphone that will be used for extended periods of time.
