The Reference Subwoofer of the Alpha Evo Line
Designed to extend the response of Focal Alpha Evo and Shape monitors, the Sub One carries the brand's DNA: neutrality, dynamics, and robustness. Its front-facing dual 8" drivers and front ports mark a significant evolution compared to older Focal subs, offering more extension into the sub-bass, better mechanical control, and easier integration into modern control rooms.
Who Is It For and What For?
The Sub One is aimed at home studios, mixing/mastering studios, post-production, and creators requiring reliable playback of the low octave. It allows clear hearing of the foundation of an 808, the tail of a cavernous reverb, or the energy of an electro kick, while maintaining a clean crossover with your satellites.
