Studio Monitor Focal Shape 65

Focal Shape 65

Shape 65 is the reference of the Shape line. Although it’s dedicated to nearfield monitoring, this monitor enables extraordinary monitoring quality, in the lowest to the highest frequencies. Simply a must, this monitor will express its full potential from a listening distance of three feet away (1 metre).

The Shape 65 loudspeaker is a professional nearfield monitor loudspeaker with two active channels (two internal amplifiers), composed of one 6.5" (16.5cm) low/midrange flax sandwich membrane loudspeaker driven by two passive side radiators and one 'M' profile aluminum-magnesium tweeter.

The all monitors are made in France and integrate five innovations to maximise acoustic transparency. Designed to meet the needs of nearfield monitoring, Shape monitors combine an ingenuous design and numerous settings optimised for the acoustics of small listening rooms.
These innovations provide remarkable acoustic transparency. The bass register is articulated and controlled. The lower mid-range and mid-range benefit from extreme neutrality, and without any masking effects, making equalisation of these essential registers much easier. Finally, the tweeter efficiently reveals any hissing, and it’s also very precise in the very high end.
