Focal Utopia Main 112: High-Performance Studio Monitoring Redefined
Focal introduces the Utopia Main 112, a state-of-the-art 3-way studio monitor engineered for professional audio environments. Drawing from over 40 years of expertise in driver design and 20 years of studio monitor innovation, this new addition to the Utopia Main range delivers unparalleled precision, power, and transparency for audio professionals.
Key Features of the Focal Utopia Main 112
1. Revolutionary Midrange & Tweeter Design
- New 'M'-shaped 'W' Cone Midrange Driver: Engineered for extreme rigidity, reducing distortion and resonance for crystal-clear midrange reproduction.
- 1.5” 'M'-shaped Beryllium Tweeter: Incorporates Tuned Mass Damper® (TMD) and Infinite Acoustic Loading® (IAL) technologies, enhancing transient response while minimizing distortion and listening fatigue.
2. Superior Amplification for Unmatched Clarity
- Class H Current Mode Amplification: Unlike traditional voltage-based amplifiers, this method directly controls the force on the driver, leading to ultra-low Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) and the most natural sound reproduction possible.
3. Flexible Low-End Tuning & Acoustic Adaptation
- 13" 'W' membrane subwoofer with high excursion ensures deep and precise low-end extension, essential for main monitors.
- Port Plug Accessory: Allows switching between a sealed cabinet for precision bass or a ported design for a more dynamic low-end response.
- On-Site Fine-Tuning: Features an amplifier control board with parametric EQs, volume trims, high/low-shelf filters, soffit compensation, and more, enabling precise acoustic adaptation to any studio environment.
4. Rugged & Resonance-Free Cabinet Build
- 30mm MDF Construction with Internal Bracing: Designed to prevent warping and unwanted resonance, even at high SPL levels.
- Optimized Laminar Port: Enhances airflow efficiency and eliminates port noise, delivering clean and powerful bass response.
- 360° Rotating Midrange-High Plate: Adjustable in 90° increments for optimal positioning in any studio setup.
