This range of finishes ensures that the loudspeakers can blend into various home decors while maintaining a high-end look.
Central to the Vestia line is the use of Focal’s proprietary Slatefiber cone technology. Originally introduced with the Chora line in 2019, this cone is constructed from recycled carbon fibers, contributing to its unique acoustic properties. The inclusion of this technology in the Vestia models underscores Focal’s commitment to innovation and environmental sustainability.
The Vestia loudspeakers also feature the 'M'-shaped dome TAM tweeter, initially developed for Focal's car audio systems. This tweeter has been adapted for use in home audio, marking its debut in Focal’s hi-fi loudspeaker range. The tweeter's design aims to deliver precise and soft treble reproduction, enhancing the overall listening experience.
Additionally, the loudspeakers incorporate both front and rear ports to create a bass-reflex profile. The front port is designed to enhance frontal impact, while the rear port supports a deeper and more encompassing bass, resulting in a rich and immersive soundstage.
The promotional prices available until September 30, 2024, make these high-fidelity speakers more accessible than ever. Whether for a compact room or a full-fledged home cinema, the Vestia series provides a model to suit every need, delivering superior sound quality and aesthetic appeal.
