Focal Utopia Main 112 Monitoring Speaker System - Black

Focal has stepped into the realm of main monitoring, with the Utopia Main range. This range combines over 40 years of Focal's research in driver design and 20 years of innovation in studio monitor development, within its Pro Audio Division. The Focal Utopia Main 112 is the 3-way model, featuring a single bass driver and a single midrange driver configuration, of this incredible range. The Utopia Main 112 system is sold as pair with left and right speakers plus two Utopia Main amplifiers.

ABSOLUTE PRECISION

The 'M'-shape concept was introduced to both the 5" midrange with a 'W'-membrane, and the 1.5" Beryllium tweeter, for increased rigidity. The 'M' shape moving in and out in a perfect pistonic movement provides a strong planar waveform and gives a true “phantom" center. Those drivers deliver exceptional transient reproduction without causing hearing fatigue.

SIGNIFICANT BASS EXTENSION

The 13" long-excursion subwoofer offers excellent definition and significant extension in the sub-bass, an essential element for main monitors. Multiple simulations have been carried out to deliver ever more accurate bass, while attenuating port noise. The cabinet is made from MDF panels reinforced by a bracing network specially designed to eliminate any cabinet warping. The sound is deep, powerful, and sensational.

UNIQUE EXTERNAL AMPLIFICATION

The patented amplifiers of the Utopia Main system use a combination of a Class H design with a current-mode amplification. Developed by Focal, theses electronics offer the most natural and transparent amplification possible for loudspeakers. Combined with analog filtering, it achieves the lowest level of harmonic distortion (THD) ever measured in an anechoic chamber.

FEATURES:

• 'M'-shaped 'W' membrane midrange driver features extreme rigidity due to its shape and material, with a powerful magnet, to ensure a precise midrange with no resonance and very-low distortion
• 1.5" 'M'-shaped Beryllium tweeter including the Tuned Mass Damper and Infinite Acoustic Loading technologies to improve stiffness and rigidity, for excellent transient response with minimum distortion – causing less listening fatigue
• Current Mode Amplification is the most natural way to amplify a loudspeaker, achieving the lowest THD levels ever measured - controlling the current instead of voltage is directly controlling the force on the driver and, therefore, it's response and getting rid of any additional unwanted artifacts
• Available port plug accessory for either precision ("sealed") or more energetic bass ("ported")
• On-site fine-tuning using the amplifier's feature board: 2 PEQs, volume trims for each driver, low-shelf, high-shelf, soffit compensation filter, port compensation filter ("sealed" or "ported"), front LED deactivation, standby mode deactivation, etc.
• Massive cabinet using 30mm - thick MDF panels, reinforced with a bracing network cleverly designed to remove any warping including quarter-wavelength resonance reduction systems maintaining precision even at the highest SPL
