Focal Alpha 80 Evo Active Studio Monitor

Full Description

Custom-designed Slatefiber woofer

The Focal Alpha 80 Evo is an active nearfield studio monitor featuring two integrated Class-D amplifiers that power the high-end drivers. The Alpha 580 Evos employ a 8-inch woofer with a 80W amplifier and a 1-inch tweeter with a 35W amplifier. It builds on the design of its siblings (the Focal Alpha) range, utilising cutting-edge components to deliver superior audio fidelity.

The compact design features a custom 'Slatefiber' woofer cone, specially-designed for this studio monitor. It is paired with a 1-inch aluminium tweeter, providing a natural, transparent sound. It also includes a large front laminar port for optimised low-end response. The monitors boast low-directivity, providing the same sound no matter where you are in the room.

Ideal for mixing, mastering and multimedia work

The premium-grade components and high-grade circuitry result in pristine sound quality. The wide frequency response ranging from 38Hz – 22kHz is designed to capture every nuance from your source audio. This makes it perfect for mixing and mastering applications. They can also be used for multimedia work such as video post-production and they are also suitable for DJs.

The studio monitors provide damping and rigidity which results in a natural response with no distortion. This ensures optimised audio fidelity, providing natural sound reproduction. The natural sound offers transparent audio that allows you to make subtle changes you can hear. The monitors also offer tonal balance, ensuring the sound remains identical at any volume level.

Sleek, robust construction

The compact eight-inch enclosure makes the studio monitors highly portable. This allows you to easily take your monitors on the move within a backpack or any larger portable storage solution. The monitor features an automatic standby mode as well as XLR, TRS and RCA inputs. The monitors come complete with a pair of removable grilles, protecting the working components whilst in use. Additionally, you can mount the monitors to a wall using the inserts for wall fastening

The rear of the unit features adjustable bass and treble levels. This allows you to accentuate your audio to different acoustic spaces. This helps to optimise the audio performance of your speakers for improved sound reproduction.
