FOCAL Chora 826 3-way bass-reflex Floorstanding Speaker (Black, EACH)

THE FLAGSHIP MODEL

3-WAY FLOORSTANDING LOUDSPEAKER 

The Chora 826 bass-reflex loudspeaker is the embodiment of an accessible high-fidelity solution for a complete listening pleasure. Equipped with the exclusive Slatefiber cone developed and manufactured at the Focal site in France, the speaker drivers deliver balanced and precise midranges and perfectly articulated bass; leaving you to enjoy a big, full and generous sound. In addition, the presence of an aerodynamic front port eliminates distortion and gives more impact in the bass.

Its sleek, modern design combined with your choice of finish, and the tilted stand for a better sound image, make Chora 826 the flagship model of this line, ideal for large rooms.

The TNF Aluminum/Magnesium tweeter

SOFT AND PRECISE TREBLE

The surround linking the dome to its stand uses a memory foam material called Poron. This surround is directly derived from the Utopia’s famous Beryllium tweeter and reduces distortion by a third between 2,000Hz and 3,000Hz, the ear’s high-sensitivity range. The spatialization and very low directionality of the inverted dome allow silky trebles to be heard from any point in your listening room.

The Slatefiber cone

PERFECTLY BALANCED SOUND

Slatefiber technology, exclusive to Focal, involves the use of recycled, non-woven carbon fibres applied as a sandwich between two layers of thermoplastic polymer. In their quest for perfection, Focal engineers have opted to use non-woven carbon fibres, all pointing in the same direction to achieve even greater rigidity and better damping.

Manufactured in the Focal workshops using an ultra-modern industrial tool, the “slate” effect of the cone provides better damping and rigidity, but also lightness – the three “essentials” of a good speaker driver. 

A SLEEK, MODERN DESIGN

The Chora range boasts a modern design, all lifted onto a tilted stand for Time Alignment, which provides an optimal soundstage, more focused on the listener. The slate color of the Slatefiber cone adds a final refined, authentic touch. 

ON-TREND FINISHES

Chora is available in three finishes: Black, Light Wood and Dark Wood. On-trend colors that blend into different interiors and lend them a unique aesthetic signature.
