This speaker
was designed and constructed with little compromise in order to
obtain the highest possible sound quality. The only criteria in
the choice of components, materials, size and cost is the achievement
of the best possible sound quality at a reasonable price. We believe
that our design goals have been realised with this speaker. The
speaker was designed for those people who wanted to reproduce
the extraordinary bass performance and dynamics of Dolby Digital
and THX DVD's and Dolby Pro Logic Broadcasts and Video's.
The stunning performance and sheer authority of this subwoofer
is hard to believe, and just stunning at any price. It
is a genuine sub woofer and is best operating between 15 and 30
Hz, way below what other subwoofers can achieve. For this reason
it is never intrusive, or obvious. Listeners can never locate
its position in the room, as the whole room just comes alive as
part of the action on the screen. There is no bass boost or equalization
used to achieve this performance. Other so called sub woofers
use a large amount of equalization to force the inadequate cabinet
and driver to perform at a lower frequency than they are capable
of naturally. This true sub woofer achieves it by
good design, great components and a fantastic amplifier.
The cabinets are constructed from heavily braced 32 mm Customwood,
which ensures that the output of the rear of the Bass Driver is
totally isolated from the cabinet. Any spurious
cabinet vibrations will result in a loss of definition and sonic
purity. The drive unit was chosen from the best available from
around the world for the best performance and accuracy possible,
at a reasonable cost. The driver in the T 16 is an excellent compromise
between cost and performance. It is a genuine Focal Sub
driver, and not a cheap Chinese copy.
