Focal Grande Utopia EM EVO 4-Way Floorstanding Speaker System
The Focal Grande Utopia EM EVO 4-way speaker system is not just any speaker system, it has had a significant impact on the current generation. It is the quintessence of Focal's philosophy, a benchmark of musicality and technology. Following the models with composite W drivers, beryllium tweeters, and EM (Electromagnetic) bass drivers that marked technological progress, Grande Utopia EM Evo now features NIC and TMD systems - innovations that cannot be compared to traditional technologies.
Features:
- 4-way floorstanding speaker system
- 16" (400mm) high-efficiency electromagnetic bass driver
- 11" (270mm) midrange driver with high-efficiency multi-ferrite magnet
- 6.5" (165mm) third-generation composite midrange driver
- IAL2 beryllium tweeter
- Adjustable focus time
- Technologies: TMD suspension, Beryllium, IAL2TM, NIC magnetic system, MRR cabinet, Focus Time Gamma structure
- Laminar high-section port without air noise or distortion
The rigidity of the Focal Grande Utopia EM EVO cabinet has been increased with reinforcing rings around the drivers. The best specially selected components have found their place in the design: cables made in France, high-density sound-absorbing material in the bass section, terminals for dual cable connection. Featuring new finishes, exceptional quality, and unique style, the Focal Grande Utopia EM EVO is not just a legend, it is above all a work of art. The Grande Utopia EM Evo is rightfully considered one of the best speaker systems in the world.
TMD Suspension Technology
This technology ensures a linear frequency response in the range from 1 to 4 kHz, significantly reducing distortion in this range. The neutral inductance circuitry was a challenging task to stabilize the magnetic field to avoid harmonic distortion and intermodulation. Research allowed Focal engineers to develop an extremely stable magnetic chain.
Acoustic Refinement
The entire crossover system in the new drivers has been carefully redesigned to provide even greater accuracy. The rigidity of the Grande Utopia EM EVO cabinet has been enhanced with reinforcing rings around the drivers, enhancing overall acoustic coherence.
Real-World Testing
Focal engineers selected components from the market, choosing them from the best global brands after real-world testing. All internal wiring in the blocks is made in France. In studying the aspects of connecting these new speakers, Focal decided to increase the thickness of the wires by 20%. The results are immediately noticeable: the sound becomes even clearer and more natural. As for the bass register, the acoustic padding made of wool embedded in the cabinet has been thickened to achieve even denser bass with greater control and accuracy.
Each speaker module is separate. Several speaker cabinets and Grande Utopia EM EVO units are connected in the form of a spine. They can be oriented using a lever. This focusing adjustment feature allows you to perfectly tune the sound field to match your interior.
Metallic Colors
The Focal Grande Utopia EM EVO speakers are distinguished by their characteristic colors inspired by the automotive universe. Grande Utopia EM Evo is available in metallic blue, ash gray, and British racing green, in addition to timeless black lacquer and Carrara white. The Utopia Evo shape remains the same, only in an updated modern style.
The speaker cabinet will be completely covered in a single color lacquer: the front and side panels will now be identical. Detailing is also of paramount importance; black color actively returns with graphite-black finishes on the baskets and tweeter cabinets. These finishing options provide overall coherence that is more harmonious and restrained, further emphasizing the originality of the new colors.
