Focal Alpha 50
The professional monitor Alpha 50, the most compact of the line, is perfectly adapted for confined spaces. The 50's are a front ported design so you can back them up to your rear wall if necessary and all of its controls and inputs live around back. These include a single RCA and XLR input per side, and three controls including LF shelving (0 - 300Hz) adjustable in 6dB increments, HF shelving (4.5 - 22kHz) adjustable in +/-3dB increments, and Sensitivity (0/+6db). There's also an on/off switch and the 50's will go into sleep after being silent for about 30 minutes. Last but not least is the power inlet for the included detachable power cord.
The Alpha 50 is composed of a 5” (13cm) woofer/ midrange speaker with a Polyglass cone loaded in a large laminar port and of a 1" (25mm) aluminum inverted dome tweeter. It features a 20W amplifier for the tweeter and a 35W amplifier for the woofer, and has a frequency response of 45Hz to 22kHz (+/- 3dB).
