Hi,

Good news, we will able to buy Focal drivers for home audio. It always exists for car.

I don't know where we can buy these driver out of Europe.

Have Fun.

Focal have always been good drivers

but Im surpriced to see the Fs and SPL specs especially, and Vas values

maybe designed specificly for car fi
I suppose thats where the money are

Those linked above aren't car drivers. Regular home audio range.

Good to know it's back.

But (sigh~ what can escape from a 'but'? ), the new product line looks not so attractive to me.

I'd love to see their new Audiom series. I'm (still) using their old Audiom 7k - a 7" mid which I bought 15 years ago. Before that, I remember seeing their catalog (in the "Loudspeaker Design Cookbook") about a whole comprehensive line of pro/studio drivers from 4or5" to 15", all coming with very impressive specs.

They are long gone.

🙁

I have a large collection of focal drivers (umm..27 or so I think)...and I've always thought they were worth it.

These ones on sale are all 4 ohms. That kinda is car audio territory.
