Handmade in France, the Elite K2 Power Series ES 165 K2E component system is the culmination of Focal's passion for perfect sound. Focal's sound gurus engaged in intensive listening sessions designing this line of speakers so that you experience uncanny realism, sweeping dynamics, and breathtaking depth in your music. This 2-ohm system extracts maximum power from your amp so you'll get more punch from your system.
The 6-1/2" woofer uses Focal's classic "W" sandwich cone design for incredibly accurate audio reproduction. The light foam core is sandwiched between the nimble aramid fiber and fiberglass layers, so the woofer can demonstrate the control needed to play delicate classical passages, yet handle the power needed to drive your bass-heavy tracks with authority. Focal adds a new Tuned Mass Damper (TMD®) butyl rubber surround which minimizes harmonic distortion for the cleanest midrange possible. Focal also distinguishes this system by incorporating an aluminum phase plug in the woofer for extended frequency response.
In addition to sweet-sounding tweeters and woofers, this system includes crossovers with adjustments for the tweeter, woofer, and crossover slope.
The separate aramid fiber tweeter employs a unique "M"-shaped inverted dome design that disperses the highs with remarkable precision, all the way up to 22,000 Hz. The K2 Power crossovers use hand-made components developed by Focal to deliver an ideal blend of the highs and lows for a dynamic stereo image. They also include controls for a treble boost, a 3-level bass setting, and two crossover slopes — all so you can dial in the sound to your car's environment. For improved dynamic range, Focal recommends you use four amplifier channels to bi-amp these speakers by using the crossover's separate inputs for the tweeter and woofer.
Note: If only using two amplifier channels to drive these speakers, you'll need to connect short pieces of speaker wire to the tweeter and woofer inputs on each crossover.
