Le moniteur professionnel Sub6 est doté d’un subwoofer de 11" (27 cm) à membrane sandwich composite « W » intégré dans un caisson à large évent laminaire arrière. Ce design garantit une linéarité du grave quel que soit le niveau SPL recherché. Pour la mise au point du niveau de puissance du subwoofer, les ingénieurs Focal ont retenu la technologie BASH®. Cette solution est la seule à offrir la qualité sonore de la classe AB tout en ayant le rendement des amplificateurs de classe D.
Le moniteur Sub6 a été développé pour permettre un couplage acoustique optimal avec des enceintes de monitoring Focal. Il intègre pour cela de nombreux réglages comme un filtre passe-haut stéréo (75 Hz – 100 Hz) dédié aux enceintes gauche et droite, un filtre passe-bas paramétrable avec sommation mono, un inverseur de phase, une phase ajustable ou encore un switch MUTE. La richesse de la connectique permet également une utilisation en 2.1, 2.2 et multicanal via les entrées et sorties L/R et l’entrée LFE.
Un atout important : le Sub6 possède une entrée footswitch. Elle permet de brancher une pédale et a pour effet de couper le subwoofer ainsi que de désactiver les filtres passe-haut sur les sorties alimentant les moniteurs. L’entrée footswitch permet de comparer une écoute en 2.1 (Sub6 filtré + moniteurs filtrés par le Sub6) et en 2.0 (subwoofer désactivé + moniteurs en large bande). La comparaison se fait instantanément, par simple pression sur le footswitch, et sans nécessité de se déplacer.
perfect match for my Solo 6 be. gives me the bottom end that I couldn't quite hear without them. Beautiful.
one of the best I ever work with
Legendary Sub 6 and still one of the best on the market
Lovely sub for professional studio.
I’ve been using Genelec subs since long years on my post audio projects but, this one is ridiculously beautiful. I can sum up with three words what I hear from Sub6 for the low frequencies; deep, breathable, silk.
Sounds great
EXCELLENT product. My second one, purchased one in 2009 and it over heated last year. Still have it but I believe it needs a NEW amp plate. Over all the best buy ever!!!!!
Great Product
Great Subwoofer, goes perfectly with my Solo6 BE monitors.
Thank you,

A wonderful compliment to my Focal Shape 65 monitors - provides the added low-end frequencies that helps my final mixes translate well when played on other audio other systems.
Exceptional and highly versatile Product. Perfectly complements my Twin 6 BE pair. Used daily in professional studio environment. Couldn't be happier!

AWSOME PAIR FOR THE SOLO 6
The Sub6 is a perfect compliment to the Solo6's I have been using for the last 6 months. While the Solo6's produce very tight and present lows, when recording synth based electronic music there were sub-low frequencies I was just missing. The Sub6 has filled in the gaps very nicely. The bass from the Sub6 is round and balanced without the "flabbiness" produced by some other subs I've tried. I love the fact that the foot switch, when engaged, mutes the Sub6 and sends full range sound to the Solo6's; then when disengaged allows the Solo6's to reproduce only what the Sub6's don't. Using this technique, I've heard things in the Solo6's I hadn't noticed before. Very nice!
TIGHT!!!
WOW

This is my first week with the product and the low frequencies are evident. I am still in the process of tweaking the placement in my room, phase, and volume levels to make it have a good balance. Quality is great and it is a potent Sub. Will update this comment as I find the sweet spot in the room and make it right.

Excellent, sub! Bass is tight and low, with lots of force behind it!
Superb warmth and sustain. I am still working on adjustmenting the phase and placement for best balance between low and high frequency tones.
Love having the sub to hear the lower 2 octaves when mixing...full spectrum and love it!!
possibly sounds a little more reserved than the CMS sub that I had also for a while with the twins. Slightly confusing control labelling / manual not much help in setting this beast up
In using the Focal Sub 6 in my studio with it's 11" speaker has the same look and high end quality as the Focal Twins and Solo's. It is very important to learn where to place the sub in your room, and have acoustic treatment on your walls along with bass traps. Without these things, I would not recommend buying a sub woofer as you will have too many issues with standing waves. By putting your signal into the Sub, and route them out to your main monitors, you can control where you want the high pass (for your monitors) and low pass (for your sub). I preferred the 75 Hz setting for the low pass and have the higher freq's for the Twins to handle. With the foot switch, you can bypass the sub when mixing and turn it on with the mains afterward. This is a very useful feature which makes the setup with going into the Sub 6 the best option. The Sub 6 goes down to 30Hz and offers a clear punchy tone. It is not muddy like some cheaper sub's I have heard. The Sub 6 is one of the best sub woofers I have ever heard and naturally it fits perfectly with the Focal Twins. With that being said, I do not mix music with the Sub 6. The Focal Twins offer all the lows, mids, and highs I need to mix a song. Plus they have the adjustments for the high's and lows on the back of the monitors which you can adjust to your taste. I also have bass traps in the corners of my room which helps a lot as well. I use the Sub 6 for three purposes.1. On playback I play the Twins with the sub for getting a better idea how the music will sound in a car stereo since they usually have exaggerated bass. 2. Play back of the music to clients. The sub makes the music more exciting, fuller and punchier.3. For mastering I need the low end detail the Sub 6 gives to get the proper adjustments for my mixes at the mastering stage.
LOVE!!!!!!!!!!!!
