SKU: SHAPE50

Product Description

Shape 50 is the versatile monitoring loudspeaker par excellence. This monitor can be used from 30 away (80cm), and it has very extended low end frequency response (50Hz) considering its compact design. Thanks to this design and to the numerous settings, this monitor is ideal for rooms measuring less than 130ft2 (12m2).

The three monitors are all made in France and integrate five innovations to maximise acoustic transparency. Designed to meet the needs of nearfield monitoring, Shape monitors combine an ingenuous design and numerous settings optimised for the acoustics of small listening rooms.

These innovations provide remarkable acoustic transparency. These new work tools distinguish themselves through the wide and extremely precise stereo image. The bass register is articulated and controlled. The lower mid-range and mid-range benefit from extreme neutrality, and without any masking effects, making equalisation of these essential registers much easier. Finally, the new tweeter is what’s at the source of the very high definition. It efficiently reveals any hissing, and it’s also very precise in the very high end.

Sound great. Look great. Haven't broken yet

Trusted Customer15th Nov 2021

Attractive and most importantly great sounding units. The top end isn't quite as lively as I am used to but high frequencies are smooth and I don't get fatigued using these for critical listening. The low, low mid and mids are nicely balanced with each other with plenty of control, detail and clarity when compared with my Beyer Dynamic mixing headphones. The sound signature is less 'forward' than those cans and different genres of music all work well with them. For the cost, happy with these monitors with one small gripe. As you will find commented by many others on the web, the EQ knobs (LF and HF shelfs, mid adjustment) are not notched - they are really low friction and move easily if you look at them too hard. The low end roll off setting dial is notched for the values you can adjust the crossover to but not the 3 EQ pots? It is easy to touch them if reaching over the monitor to switch on or off so I sometimes feel compelled to turn them around and check their settings. With the exception of that particular paranoia inducing usage issue, I am enjoying having a neutral sound in the room for mixing and music production. I have a sub-woofer too and with that on, these monitors do a great job with music and movies/sound effects.

The Focal Shape 50's are an absolute pleasure. Clear and balanced for mixing and brilliant for litening to my favoirte tunes. Having saved for a good while to get these, they are every bit as good as I expected. P. S. Get some sound treatment in your home studio before hand if you want them to really sing!
