Focal Shape Twin Dual 5″ Powered Studio Monitor with Passive Radiators
The Focal Shape Twin is a 2×5″ 2.5-way active studio monitor designed to deliver reliable monitoring accuracy for audio engineers, producers, and musicians in home, project, and commercial studios. A walnut veneer covers the top and front of the MDF cabinet, which houses the 1″ M-shaped tweeter and two 5″ flax-cone woofers—the lower speaker handles 40 to 180 Hz and the upper speaker covers 40 Hz to 2.5 kHz. Each speaker component is driven by Class-AB amplification.
The dual 8″ passive radiator design yields extended low-frequency performance while allowing placement near walls. TMD suspension and a Neutral Inductance Circuit contribute to enhanced linearity and minimized distortion throughout the monitor’s 40 Hz to 35 kHz frequency response.
Inputs include a balanced XLR 3-pin connector and an unbalanced RCA coaxial jack on the rear panel, which also offers a 3-band EQ with an adjustable high-pass filter. In addition to tonal controls, imaging modifications are available via the height-adjustable decoupling points.
Neutral Inductance Circuit
N.I.C. (Neutral Inductance Circuit) technology grants an extremely stable magnetic circuit. The solution consists of a Faraday ring whose dimensions, materials, and positioning have been optimized so that the magnetic field is no longer affected by the position of the voice coil, by the amperage, or by the frequency of the current passing through it. This increases frequency response in the high end of the spectrum, thus optimizing the crossover with the tweeter while reducing harmonic distortion and intermodulation.
Flax-Cone Woofers
Developing speaker driver cone technologies is part of Focal’s core expertise. The flax sandwich cones used for the woofers are composed a layer of flax fibres sandwiched between two layers of glass fibres. Glass fibre cones were also used on the W composite sandwich cone of the SM6 and SM9 series and are revered for their high rigidity despite their light weight. Flax fibres are twice as light as glass fibres and have low elasticity. 80% cellulose composition yields excellent damping properties. This technology has proven to be a considerable improvement over the polyglass cone in terms of weight, rigidity, and damping.
M-Shaped Tweeter
Focal has further improved its famous aluminum/magnesium inverted dome tweeter by introducing two significant mechanical innovations: the M-shaped dome and redesigned suspension. The inverted M-shaped dome offers two major advantages. Its directivity is even less than that of an inverted dome tweeter, allowing for more flexibility in terms of listening position. Mechanically speaking, the M shape gives the dome much more rigidity, while reducing distortion even more. In addition to this, the Poron suspension provides a more linear frequency response curve below 6 kHz, improving the crossover with the woofer. The magnetic component has also been optimized thanks to a voice coil with a Kapton frame, which significantly reduces the Foucault current, and consequently, distortion. The horn housing in which the tweeter has been designed provides equal horizontal and vertical directivity.
Double Passive Radiator
The 8″ double passive radiator addresses a common challenge encountered with nearfield monitors: to combine a compact design, extended frequency response in the low end, and comfortable positioning. When ported systems meet their limits in terms of integration (a long-enough port to match its surface is required), the passive radiator is the ideal solution.
