Focal Aria Evo X N°2

ARIA EVO X N°2 3-way floor-standing speaker Aria Evo X N°2 is the audiophile and modern floorstanding speaker for hi-fi listening at home. With its robust design and exclusive Focal innovations, it's a model of choice that delivers balanced, harmonious and precise acoustics. Let yourself be carried away by the unparalleled musicality of Aria Evo X.                 PERFECTLY DEFINED SOUND The three Flax diaphragm loudspeakers deliver a very natural, defined sound. Featuring an ingenious waveguide for controlled directionality and improved sound imaging, the TAM "M" profile tweeters deliver precision, control and smoothness in the high frequencies.           HIGH-FIDELITY PROMISE QUALITY DESIGN Made in France, the loudspeaker features an ultra-rigid MDF cabinet for greater neutrality, an aluminum-alloy base for greater stability on the floor, and a multi-vent system promising even greater sonic depth.           TIMELESS FINISHES Soberdesignand noble materials characterize the loudspeaker. Its Black High Gloss, Prime Walnut and Moss Green High Gloss finishes, and leather-effect front panel bring character and elegance to any living space.     TECHNOLOGIES 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.       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.         REVIEW & AWARDS Focal's Aria Evo X speaker range could be the stylish home cinema solution you've been searching for - Read More "Focal announced its Vestia range of speakers last January at CES 2023, with the Vestia No.1 bookshelf model earning a four-star rating when we tested them.
