The Focal Shape 65 offers an unrivaled quality of control, from the lower on the highest frequencies. With a 6.5 '' woofer with a flax membrane, an aluminum/magnesium "m" tweeter and AB class amplifiers, this monitoring speaker is essential for professionals looking for sound transparent perfectly defined. It expresses all its potential from a listening meter.
Acoustic Transparency
Like Shape 40 and Shape 50, Shape 65 is characterized by a stereo image that is both wide and extremely precise. Benefiting from the advantages of the Flax membrane, combined with the "M" profile tweeter, it delivers a very high-definition sound with redoubled clarity across the entire spectrum. Control is precise, right down to the extreme treble.
Optimal Integration
Designed to meet the needs of nearfield listening, Shape loudspeakers combine ingenious design with essential features and controls (XLR and RCA inputs, adjustable bass and treble levels, disengageable high-pass crossover, adjustable 160 Hz filter...).
Design
Sobriety and style define Shape 65. The MDF cabinet body is covered with a real walnut veneer. Its compactness, ventless design and mounting inserts make for optimal, flexible integration, even close to a wall.
The Focal Technologies
Passive Radiator For More Bass Presence
- A passive radiator loudspeaker offers the advantages of a bass-reflex load in a very small footprint. It uses a bass loudspeaker with no motor (coil and magnet) instead of a port. This design extends the low-frequency response and delivers excellent power handling in a reduced loudspeaker volume.
Flax Membrane For The Purity And Precision Of Sound
- As the key component of a loudspeaker, the membrane is at the heart of Focal's 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.
NIC technology Delivering High-Definition Sound
- For very high-definition sound, control of the magnetic flux circulating in the loudspeaker is essential. Focal's acousticians have created a magnetic circuit of incredible stability, guaranteeing perfectly controlled sound: Neutral Inductance Circuit (NIC) technology. This patented technology resides in a Faraday ring whose dimensions, material and positioning are optimized to make the magnetic flux stable and the sound highly precise.
Stabilize Surround And Eliminate Vibrations With TMD Suspension
- The engineers at Focal are experts 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.
