Shape 50 is the all-rounder par excellence. Usable from a listening distance of 80 cm, it offers a very wide frequency response in the low frequencies (50 Hz) thanks to its 5" woofer with Flax membrane. Its compact, ventless design and double passive radiator enable it to be positioned close to a wall, and fit perfectly into rooms smaller than 12 m².
Features
- 5-Inch Flax Cone Woofer
- Aluminum-Magnesium M-Shaped Tweeter
- Dual Passive Bass Radiators
- Built-In Class AB Amplifiers
- Adjustable Acoustic EQ Controls
- Compact Ventless Cabinet Design
Focal Know-How
Shape monitors feature Focal innovations that deliver a high level of transparency. With different settings, different inputs and low-directionality loudspeakers for flexible listening positions, they meet the nearfield listening needs and acoustic characteristics of small spaces.
Wide Sound Spectrum
Its 13 cm woofer with Flax cone ensures precise, articulate bass. Low-midrange and midrange frequencies benefit from great neutrality, with no masking effect, greatly facilitating equalization of these ever-critical registers. The "M" profile tweeter is the source of very high definition, with formidable precision at very high frequencies.
Compact Design
The MDF cabinet is covered on top and front with through-dyed real walnut veneer. The monitor's compact size means it can be installed discreetly without loss of performance. Designed without a vent, it can also be positioned close to a wall.
Accessories
Mounting inserts are provided on the back and underside of Shape line monitors, making it possible to install them on table stands, microphone stands, ceilings or walls (mounting accessories not supplied).
Passive Radiator
A passive radiator enclosure uses an unpowered bass driver instead of a vent, extending low-frequency response and improving power handling within a compact enclosure.
Flax Membrane
Focal's patented Flax cone uses French flax fiber between two thin fiberglass layers, combining lightness, rigidity and damping for neutral, natural sound.
NIC Technology
NIC (Neutral Inductance Circuit) technology uses a Faraday ring optimized to stabilize the magnetic field and improve sound precision.
TMD Suspension
TMD (Tuned Mass Damper) technology uses positioned toroidal weights to stabilize the driver's suspension and improve midrange neutrality.
