Focal Shape 40 4" Active 2-Way Studio Monitor Speaker, Single

You can experience superior sound quality with the Shape 40 4" Active 2-Way Studio Monitor Speaker, the most compact model in the Focal Professional line. This stylish and durable speaker is the ideal solution for nearfield monitoring, delivering astonishingly extended low-end frequency response even when used from a distance of 23" (60cm).

Designed for small spaces, the Shape 40 is perfect for rooms less than 107ft2 (10m2) or installations where compactness is paramount. It features a tweeter with very low directivity, allowing for a flexible listening position. The speaker can be mounted on a table stand, a microphone stand, the ceiling, or a wall, thanks to the mounting mechanisms present on the back and underneath the speaker (mounting accessories not supplied).

The Shape 40 is designed without a port but includes a double passive radiator, enabling it to be placed near a wall. The flax sandwich cone ensures controlled and articulated bass, natural and detailed lower mid-range, and upper mid-range registers.

This high-quality, professional speaker offers numerous settings for optimal integration and accurate control, even in the very high end. All components are made in France and integrate five innovations to maximize acoustic transparency. These innovations, combined with an ingenious design, provide remarkable acoustic transparency and an extremely precise stereo image.

The bass register is articulated and controlled, while the lower mid-range and mid-range benefit from extreme neutrality, making equalization of these essential registers much easier. The new tweeter efficiently reveals any hissing and is very precise in the very high end.

The Shape 40 incorporates recent flax sandwich cone technology, which offers significant improvements in terms of weight, rigidity, and damping. It also features Neutral Inductance Circuit (N.I.C) technology for an extremely stable magnetic circuit, reducing distortions. The Tuned Mass Damper (TMD) Surround technology ensures a linear frequency response curve between 1 and 2KHz, significantly reducing distortion in this range and contributing to the great precision of the overall stereo image.

In summary, the Shape 40 4" Active 2-Way Studio Monitor Speaker is a reliable, high-quality audio equipment choice, designed to meet the needs of nearfield monitoring and deliver a superior audio experience.
