Focal’s Next-gen Alpha 80 Evo

Music Experience is excited to present to you the next generation of Focal’s Alpha series monitors. The Alpha 80 Evo design leverages cutting-edge materials and engineering to advance the state of the art in studio monitoring. This compact active 2-way monitor employs a 1-inch aluminum tweeter and an 8-inch woofer with a Slatefiber cone developed and handcrafted in Focal’s Saint-Étienne, France-based facility. Powered by 115 watts of optimized Class D bi-amplification and engineered to deliver flat tonal balance and outstanding dynamic range, the Alpha 80 Evo is designed from the ground up for improved performance over previous-generation Alpha monitors. The Focal Alpha 80 Evo is a versatile, robust speaker system that will complement your modern production environment and provide the honest, accurate monitoring you need to produce world-class results.

Unerring accuracy, outstanding performance

At the heart of the Alpha 80 Evo is the new Slatefiber LF driver. The singular characteristics of the Slatefiber material used for the cone have dramatically improved the low-frequency extension, dynamic range, and sheer impact of the Alpha 80 Evo as compared with its Alpha series predecessor. In addition, the 1-inch aluminum inverted dome tweeter has been updated to convey the most minute nuances in playback material with pinpoint precision — without a hint of harshness or the listening fatigue associated with many high-definition tweeter designs.

You can trust Focal monitors

With their extended frequency response and precise imaging, Focal’s Alpha 80 Evo 2-way active studio monitor is engineered to reproduce your audio signal with unerring accuracy. But beyond its impressive performance, this monitor is designed for flexible, seamless integration into your studio. The Alpha 80 Evo features rear-panel HF/LF shelving to optimize the system for any acoustic environment; in addition to balanced XLR, TRS, and unbalanced RCA inputs, it offers the energy-saving convenience of Focal’s automatic standby mode, which cuts power after 30 minutes of inactivity. Engineers at Music Experience rely on Focal monitors to tell them the truth about what they’re recording. You can put your trust in them, too.

What Focal Says...

Versatility, Discretion and Studio Performance

The benchmark in the Alpha Evo line, the Alpha 80 is particularly recommended for high sound levels and extended subwoofers. With its 21 cm woofer featuring a Slatefiber cone, this amplified monitoring loudspeaker delivers great neutrality across the entire spectrum and excellent dynamics with very low distortion.

Polyvalence

Connection of up to three audio sources (XLR, TRS and RCA inputs), disengageable automatic standby mode, and wall or ceiling mounting options make the Alpha 80 Evo a flexible and versatile monitor. It integrates a wide range of features ideal for mixing, mastering or broadcasting.

Optimal Integration

Featuring a large-section vent for a compact bass-reflex design, rounded contours, and robust side panels to enhance the sound, the Alpha 80 Evo integrates easily into studios without compromising performance.

Performance

The woofer features a Slatefiber diaphragm renowned for its neutral sound and low distortion. Complementing this is an aluminum tweeter for detailed high frequencies and dual high-current amplifiers that deliver precise and dynamic signal control.
