Focal SM6 Twin6 Be Monitoring Speaker

Put up Focal's Twin6 Be monitors, and you'll realize why these nearfields are the best-selling studio reference monitors in Focal's entire renowned range. They boast an extremely clear, near-linear 40Hz-40kHz frequency response, which puts the Twin6 Be's sonic reach outside the range of even your own hearing. How? Focal's inverted-dome tweeter and dual-woofer technology are responsible for the magic. Expect articulate bass and midbass response, midrange neutrality, and nothing but detailed highs — in short, your Focal Twin6Be is dedicated to delivering a precision image.

Focal's best-seller is all about precision, definition, and accuracy

It's no secret, the Focal Twin6 Be 3-way nearfield monitors have been sweeping studios all across Europe and the States. Why? They're extraordinarily transparent — and they're Focal's most versatile work tool. Thanks to the Twin6 Be's image precision, treble definition, and midrange neutrality — all of which are at the heart of the Twin 6 Be's reputation — you'll have all the studio monitor you need for recording, mixing, and mastering.

Hear the advantages of Focal's Beryllium inverted-dome tweeter

A Focal hallmark is the inverted-dome tweeter — and it's a big part of the magic behind the Twin6 Be's amazing performance. The particular advantage of the inverted dome is that it optimizes the mechanical coupling between the voice coil and the dome. As the voice coil is fixed at mid-height on the dome, it can uniformly move the Twin6 Be's entire cone surface. This design inherently offers high efficiency, precision, and energy, all resulting in an extremely precise soundstage. Add to that the use of Beryllium for the Twin6 Be's dome — a material noted for its incredible rigidity — and you've got a speaker that can near-linearly span from 40Hz all the way up to 40kHz, above the range of human hearing.

"W" composite sandwich cone helps to optimize the frequency response curve

The Twin6 Be takes advantage of Focal's "W" composite sandwich cone. The unique characteristics of the cone permits optimization of the frequency response curve, thanks to the total control of three key parameters: lightness, rigidity, and damping. The sound is amazingly transparent, has an excellent phase response, and has an extremely low distortion rate.
