Focal Grande Utopia EM EVO 4-Way Acoustic System
The Focal Grande Utopia EM EVO is not just an ordinary acoustic system that has had a significant impact on the current generation. It is also the quintessence of Focal's philosophy, a benchmark of musicality and technology. After models with composite W cones, beryllium dome tweeters, and low-frequency drivers with electromagnets (EM) that marked technological progress, the Grande Utopia EM Evo now features NIC and TMD systems - innovations that cannot be compared to classic technologies.
Features:
- 4-way floor-standing system
- 16" (400 mm) highly efficient electromagnetic low-frequency driver
- 11" (270 mm) high-efficiency midrange driver
- 6.5" (165 mm) 3rd generation composite material midrange driver
- Beryllium IAL2 tweeter
- Adjustable focus time
- Technologies: TMD suspension, Beryllium, IAL2TM, NIC magnetic system, MRR cabinet, Focus Time Gamma structure
- Laminar port design eliminates air flow noise
The stiffness of the Focal Grande Utopia EM EVO cabinet has been increased with reinforcing rings around the drivers. The best components have been carefully selected for this system, including French-made cables, high-density sound-absorbing material in the low-frequency section, and terminals for dual cable connection. With new finishing options, excellent quality, and unique style, the Focal Grande Utopia EM EVO is not just a legend, but above all a work of art. The Grande Utopia EM Evo is rightfully considered one of the best acoustic systems in the world.
TMD Suspension Technology
This technology provides a linear frequency response from 1 to 4 kHz while significantly reducing distortion in this range. Neutral inductance circuit design to stabilize the magnetic field was a complex task to overcome harmonic distortion and intermodulation. Extensive research allowed Focal engineers to develop an extremely stable magnetic circuit.
Acoustic Refinement
The entire crossover system in the new drivers has been carefully reworked to ensure even greater accuracy. The stiffness of the Grande Utopia EM EVO cabinet has been increased with reinforcing rings around the drivers, enhancing overall acoustic coherence.
Real-World Testing
Focus engineers selected components from the market, choosing them from among the best global brands after real-world testing. All internal wiring in the blocks is made in France. Studying aspects of connecting these new speakers, Focal decided to increase the wire thickness by 20%. The results are immediately noticeable: the sound becomes even clearer and more natural. As for the bass range, the acoustic padding made of cotton wool incorporated into the cabinet has been thickened to achieve denser bass with greater control and precision.
Each speaker module is separate. Several speaker cabinets and Grande Utopia EM EVO are connected in a backbone-like structure. They can be oriented using a lever. This focus adjustment function allows you to perfectly tune the sound field according to your interior.
Metal Colors
Focal Grande Utopia EM EVO speakers stand out with their distinctive 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 coated in a single color lacquer: the front and side panels will now be identical. Detailing is also paramount; black color actively returns with graphite-black finish of the baskets and tweeter housing. These finishing options provide overall coherence that is more harmonious and understated, further highlighting the originality of the new colors.
