Design Ideologies
The Slatefiber range of components offer the ultimate sound performance. They combine meticulous design, sleek styling, excellent power handling and high sensitivity; offering exceptional performance. Originally launched back in 2019 and evolved recently; the latest Slatefiber range joins the impressive list of materials Focal has successfully mastered. The innovative cone’s unique slate effect plays a key role in delivering an immersive and highly detailed sound stage.
Harmonious Architecture
All Slatefiber components are designed to be easy to install, and to work together to reveal every nuance from impactful bass to delicate highs. All powered by French made Slatefiber technology, resulting in true balance, natural tone and superb dynamics.
Design Features
The rich heritage and knowledge of Focal’s engineering team, together with their ever-increasing technical acumen; is conducive to these components featuring plenty of impressive design ideologies and latest technological advancements. We canvass but a selection of them below.
Exceptional Sonic Coherence
Designed and crafted in Focal’s astute workshops; the Slatefiber cone uses recycled carbon fibers and thermoplastic polymer, thus ensuring an optimal strength to weight ratio. Focal’s engineers chose to use non-woven carbon fibers oriented in the same direction to achieve even greater rigidity, damping and lightness; all essential aspects for achieving good speaker design. The Slatefiber concept is not only recognised in cars for its reproduction of dynamic, rich and balanced sound either. These units have also proven themselves within numerous products for the home and professionals in recording studios. As these drivers effortlessly deliver uniform and distortion free sound; essential for a cohesive, accurate aural representation.
Superb Upper Octave Clarity
The shape and materials of diaphragms are essential, especially wherein higher octaves are concerned. For extremely refined treble, Focal engineers patented the inverted dome tweeter; which has long since become a Focal signature and staple. Shaping an inverted dome offers the advantage of low directivity and a small diameter voice coil, which makes it very light for improved acceleration and control. The materials also help amalgamate the key elements of a good loudspeaker. The aluminium increases the rigidity of the dome and reduces distortion, while the addition of magnesium provides excellent damping.
Intelligent Level Control
The Slatefiber crossovers are not just any old hack either. They feature multiple level adjustments, allowing you to adapt individual driver volume perfectly to your cabin. Separable crossovers also allow flexible, optimised installation based on the vehicle and system design.
Expert Construction And Perfect Integration
The Slatefiber components feature elements like aluminium rotor design frames and DIN sized chassis’; intentionally engineered for intuitive integration, particularly those from Japan, America and Europe. These designs provide easy installation and long term reliability. A true showcase of Focal’s design acumen and expertise.
