Focal Aria EVO X No.3 Floorstanding Speakers

Description

ICONIC MEMBRANE
Patented and manufactured in our workshops, the Flax membrane in French flax fiber meets all the criteria of a high-fidelity cone: lightness, rigidity and damping. It offers a neutral, natural sound, rich reproduction in the midrange and clean attacks in the bass, as well as a unique aesthetic.

SOFT TREBLE
The “M” profile TAM tweeter has been designed to offer a wide diffusion angle and greater sound definition, without directionality. An exclusive Focal technology, it delivers flawless harmonic balance and detailed treble with great clarity and finesse.

TIMELESS DESIGN
Aria Evo X N°3 has a slim, sleek design. Black High Gloss, Prime Walnut and Moss Green High Gloss finishes, combined with a leather-effect front panel, lend timelessness, modernity and refinement to the loudspeaker.

Flax membrane
Purity and precision of sound

As the key component of a loudspeaker, the membrane is at the heart of our acoustic engineers’ research. After more than five years of research and development, in 2013 Focal unveiled an exclusive membrane made from flax. Patented, this Flax cone is a sandwich made of very high quality French flax fibre placed between two thin sheets of glass fibre. It satisfies all the criteria of a high-fidelity membrane: lightness to offer good dynamics, rigidity to hold the bass and damping to deliver a neutral, natural, uncolored sound. It is an emblematic Focal innovation in many hi-fi products.

TMD suspension
Stabilized surround, eliminates vibrations

While our engineers are experts in the development of exclusive diaphragms, they also innovate in all the components that make up the loudspeakers, such as the surround that connects the diaphragm to the frame, the performance of which must be mastered. Introduced in 2015, Tuned Mass Damper (TMD) technology with harmonic damping consists of the addition of finely positioned toroidal weights to stabilize the surround for even greater sonic neutrality. This technology enhances the midrange and the erratic behavior of the surround between 1 kHz and 2 kHz.

Tam tweeter
Wide diffusion angle

Membrane shape and materials are essential for high-fidelity reproduction. Focal engineers have designed the TAM tweeter. Manufactured in our workshops in France, it boasts a number of advantages, particularly in terms of wide-angle diffusion. Comprising an aluminum/magnesium inverted dome cone with an “M” profile for even greater rigidity, it delivers flawless harmonic balance and detailed treble. The presence of a decompression chamber limits disturbances caused by rear waves, for even greater sonic clarity.
