Mixing or Mastering: the Focal SM9

By Kevin K.

If your looking for a true monitor for mixing or mastering, the Focal SM9 is it. You will hear and incredibly clear and deep image. Deep reverb tails can really be heard.

A revolutionary addition to professional audio equipment, the SM9 11" 600W 3-Way Active Studio Monitor Speaker, Right Channel, is a high-quality, powerful, and reliable product designed by Focal. This speaker is engineered with the philosophy of letting the audio signal take center stage, ensuring that your focus remains on the music, not the equipment.

The SM9 stands out as a reference in the audio industry, thanks to its precision in stereo imaging and its ability to reproduce every micro detail of the audio signal. It maintains an unconditional respect for the original dynamics, providing an authentic and immersive audio experience.

One of the key innovations of the SM9 is its dual-monitor design housed in a single, unique cabinet. This design includes a 3-way monitor and a 2-way monitor, offering versatility and convenience for various audio applications.

The SM9 is packed with Focal Professional's exclusive technologies and innovations. The pure Beryllium inverted dome tweeter delivers a perfectly linear frequency response and incredibly detailed treble. The 6.5-inch 'W' composite sandwich cone woofer ensures perfect neutrality, thanks to optimized control of rigidity, lightness, and damping. The 8-inch speaker driver, paired with a 'W'-shaped passive radiator, accurately reproduces the deep bass register, providing sound with great precision.

Equipped with a class AB amplifier (100 + 100 + 400W RMS) with very low harmonic distortion, the SM9 ensures faithful dynamics of low-level audio signals. This feature, along with the high-frequency response curve, guarantees great precision in sound reproduction.

The SM9's 3-way monitor offers a frequency response from 30Hz to 40kHz, allowing for total control of the audio signal and extremely precise work. The 2-way monitor, on the other hand, offers a frequency response from 90Hz to 40kHz, enabling you to check the mix transfer quality on systems with limited frequency response in the bass frequencies.

The SM9 also features Focal's hallmark inverted dome tweeter, which produces a high output without requiring high energy input or increasing directivity. The pure Beryllium dome covers 5 full octaves from 1,000 to 40,000Hz, making it a game-changer for new audio formats.

In conclusion, the SM9 11" 600W 3-Way Active Studio Monitor Speaker, Right Channel, is a durable, professional-grade product that delivers high-quality sound reproduction. Its innovative design and advanced technologies make it an excellent choice for music production and audio recording in professional recording studios, home studios, and other settings requiring superior audio quality.
