I love focal headphones. I HIGHLY respect this company because they make their OWN drivers.
The video of the tour is much appreciated. I save my hard earned money for their products, because high end sound quality is something I just gotta have. I appreciate seeing how their speakers are made. Thanks again for your commitment with this video.
Incredible. And very renown as one of the best makers.
I always installed Focal speakers in my cars, sound is great.
My little home studio has a pair of CMS 50s I bought years ago for my guitar amp modeler and they sound very nice. Very quick and clear. I do not hear the speakers I only hear the tone of my guitar. I'm very happy with them.
I have listened to their cheapest bookshelf and the midrange was golden. I have been searching for a set of towers in the 10K range. So far Focal, and Vandersteen and Wilson Audio and Canton are on my list, but I like what appears as all in house work with European materials, even MDF from European wood? My current old speaker are Canadian made from Canadian wood, and they are 20 years old and the cabinet is strong. I wish focal would show their crossover. That is the only thing keeping me from buying it. Great sounding speaker.
I own the Focal 1028BE and i am very pleased with it. They sound great. Before this model, i had the 826S even they sounded fantastic.
im just new to focal get the celestee headphones 2 weeks ago

his answer makes no sense. beryllium has a mohs of 5.5 - similar to other metallic things like knives & also in the same range as glass. You can scratch beryllium fairly easily with commonly occurring items.
I really enjoyed the video.
I love this guy, he speaks english like me ^^
Altijd leuk zo,n factory video .
Sir thank you very nice 👌 super,🇮🇳
Good speakers!!
Wow idol ok
are the home hifi speakers essentially the same car speakers but housed in a cabinet?
are the Focal Aria series cabinets also made here? or outsourced from the east?

As far as I know Aria is made in France. Partly because the flax units are made in France. Chora is made in far east.
9:36, after the speakers are finished, she uses a soft blow for the emblem. There's gotta be a better way.
What's the song at the into? Anyone

I used to install Focal speakers and had the pleasure of saying I have installed the Gran utopias ,1038 BEs , Scala and Mastero. I also installed the B & Ws (even own a pair) and I have to say Focal is better. Their Tweeter cannot be compared with and the midrange is outstanding if I could afford Focal I would get them hands down.
the cones and tweeters of some of the home hifi speakers look the same as their car hifi speakers

Beryllium is a 5.5 on the mohs scale. many things will scratch it. The guy is talking smoke.
Management 😢could not even put up acoustic panels to deal with echo in the showroom.
Nicely made but the robot looking ones look a bit ugly and I can’t see them being worth $35,000 a pair. More like $10,000 maybe.
