FOCAL K2P TWEETER (TN52)

Good condition.

TALKAUDIO Review.

Focal is another speaker maker of utter aristocracy. Their top end domestic speakers are just awesome and some of their lovely Beryllium inverted-dome tweeter technology has been filtered across in concept at least to their car product. This set comes with a tweeter called a TN52 and is a classy act. The only set to have capacitors within its passive crossovers that a home hifi audiophile might be able to identify, too. The slope of said crossovers is also class-leading at 18dB per Octave.

The sound is powerful rather than sweet but stays linear and does not change character as it gets louder. It just gets louder. They have a lovely rich and warm sound with an involving midband and a sweet imagery that made my tatty old wooden test boxes act like the best holographic sound-away-from-the-box posh home speakers. Which was startling. None of the lunatic bass extension of the mighty Atomic QT6.5C2 or perhaps the thunderous JL Audio C5-650 but nevertheless the sound quality was right up there. They were built with great sexy lumps of engineering expertise and they are horribly good at using big power as well as sounding great at sensible and even low volumes. So they work with all three main control options, which is rare. (All the way off, all the way on, somewhere in between…)

Seriously, they only dropped a point or two for needing more power per decibel made than some on the test and also for being a fat £400. A wicked product and deeply deserving of the higher Talk Audio accolade of Best Buy.

In working condition, therefore bid with confidence.

Thanks.
