The Alpha range is specially dedicated to musical creation. From the early stages of Research & Development, the emphasis was placed on the possibilities of integrating monitors into the most varied environments, both in terms of size and acoustic nature. Versatility has been further enhanced by the ability of each speaker to reveal the smallest details of the mixes, across all musical styles. Alpha integrates Focal technologies such as the aluminium inverted dome tweeter and the Polyglass membrane woofer. This translates into a wide and precise sound scene when listening.
The low frequencies are always under control and the midrange is remarkably neutral. The double amplification class AB offers, on the other hand, respect for dynamics and high SPL capacity for even more possibilities. Finally, the bass reflex design, via two wide section front vents, allows a very close positioning to a wall, while ensuring excellent stability of the tonal balance.

Au déballage ça respire la qualité, même si les matériaux ne sont pas les plus hauts de gamme.
En rodage pour le moment, elle sonne quand-même très bien.
