Speakers - Surround, JM Lab



800V Surround System		For Focal, Chorus symbolizes one of the most stimulating challenges for the loudspeaker and refined product manufacturer that we are: to allow the greatest number of consumers to access our technological innovations. Technological innovation does not only solely touch strategic components of the speaker, but the actual whole of the design. Thanks to the use of advanced and exclusive materials, elaborate manufacturing techniques of the cabinets, the Chorus 800 V line of today shines with a unique, hi-end esthetic. Chorus V isn’t only a performing product line, ideal for entering the Focal universe, but objects that will inhabit living spaces, with an innovative esthetic, quality of manufacture and a finish worthy of a higher segment.

The dynamics in film and multichannel music soundtracks push us to surpass ourselves. All the models of the Chorus 800 V line have exceptional power handling and output, giving them a seismic dynamic range, maintained down into deep bass thanks to the new optimization of the ports and the cabinets.

The new subwoofer SW 800 V follows this logic. It inherits much from the famous SW 700 S from the last generation, renowned for the quality of its impact and its dynamic range.

The increased rigidity of the cabinet, the double port, the powerful BASH® amplifier, which exceeds 350 Watts, new, accessible settings make for many important improvements and a bass even deeper and more powerful despite a limited cabinet displacement.

CC 800V Center Speaker		The Chorus CC 800 V center channel speaker benefits from optimal settings in order to marry to the other loudspeakers in the Chorus 800 V series. Despite its simple configuration, we managed to achieve directionality curves to combat the typical limitations of a center channel speaker (an instable 3D image, “boxy” dialogue sound, inconsistent transition between the three front speakers). The naturalness and precision of the dialogue constitute a major strength for this perfectly designed loudspeaker.


The third generation of Chorus speakers, Chorus 700 V, goes even further. A direct descendant of the Chorus 800 V line of which it heavily borrows technical elements yet with a more traditional finish, Chorus 700 V invites you in to the Focal universe. The build quality and high-end finishing work are entirely unknown in this price-range. Technology, innovation, tradition and exclusive design are our trademarks, being our “the Spirit of Sound”.		700V Surround System


CC 700V Center Channel		The CC 700 V centre speaker is a sealed, more compact version of the Chorus CC 800 V. It was designed to obtain adapted directivity curves that would surpass the limits of the traditional 2-way centre channel speaker (lack of stability in the 3D image, “megaphone” dialogue sound, poor transition between the other two front speakers). The quality of the dialogue and the resulting harmony with the other sound effects is exceptional.


The SW 700 V inherits the motor of the famous SW 700 S of the preceding generation. The firmness of the bass from the 27cm woofer, married to the inexhaustible resources of the 300 Watt BASH® amplifier, surely benefits from the exceptional rigidity of the new Chorus 700 V cabinets. All these loudspeakers benefit from the experience accumulated from Electra 1000 Be, Profile 900 and of course, the Utopia Be line as we continue on our obsessive quest: the recreated, live concert.
