Focal FOBSBEUM2124B003 Bundle Utopia Main 212 BE - Pair, Black

UTOPIA MAIN 212

Designed specifically for studio mains applications, the Focal Utopia Main 212 delivers absolute precision, even in high-SPL situations. This 3.5-way passive loudspeaker reflects Focal’s 40 years of driver-design excellence, featuring updated “M”-shape, “W”-cone midrange drivers, an improved beryllium tweeter, and two “W”-membrane, high-excursion subwoofers. Massive laminar ports bolster the latter for extended — and exceptionally clear — bass response. You also get a port-plug accessory for fine-tuning your low end. Moreover, each matched pair of Utopia Main 212 monitors ships with two mono Class H current-mode amplifiers with onboard tuning features to ensure the most natural, transparent sound possible in every installation scenario. Furthermore, this studio monitor is housed in a 30mm-thick medium-density fiberboard (MDF) cabinet, reinforced with resonance-resistant bracing, facilitating both soffit-mount and freestanding deployment with equal sonic assurance. Large-scale professional facilities searching for a trustworthy set of mains with rafter-shaking output, otherworldly frequency response, and unparalleled transient handling will be astonished by the peerless performance of the Focal Utopia Main 212.

Embodies 40 years of Focal’s driver innovation

When Focal’s engineers developed the Utopia Main 212, they pulled out all the stops. The speaker’s innovative drivers undeniably reflect four decades of loudspeaker development. Two 13-inch “W”-membrane subwoofers offer an extraordinarily high excursion to facilitate extreme low-end extension — a must-have trait for studio mains. The 1.5-inch “M”-shaped beryllium tweeter leverages Tuned Mass Damper and Infinite Acoustic Loading technologies to ensure the greatest possible transient response with minimal distortion. When we heard the Utopia Main 212 in action, we were especially impressed by its 5-inch “M”-shaped, “W”-cone midrange drivers. Their radically rigid design and potently powerful magnets deliver incredible transparency with zero resonance or distortion. Any studio looking to outfit their large mix room with a no-compromise set of modern-spec mains will find that these loudspeakers exceed all expectations.

Revolutionary current-mode amplification

Each Focal Utopia Main 212 studio monitor is powered by a dedicated external Class H current-mode amplifier. This amplifier was developed specifically for the Utopia Main 212, yielding what are possibly the lowest THD levels ever measured. This custom-tailored design governs electrical current rather than voltage, enabling it to take direct physical control of the force of the speaker’s drivers, producing the purest sound possible with zero artificial sonic artifacts. The Utopia Main 212’s amplifier also houses built-in tuning features, including two parametric EQs, per-driver volume trims, low- and high-shelf filters, soffit-compensation and port-compensation filters, front LED deactivation, standby mode deactivation, and more.

Optimized cabinet with resonance-defeating bracing

Even the Utopia Main 212’s cabinet features an optimized design. It all starts with robust 30mm-thick MDF construction. Moreover, this studio monitor is reinforced with a bracing network cleverly designed to safeguard against warping, including quarter-wavelength resonance. This ensures absolute sonic precision, even at room-quaking SPLs. Beyond that, the Utopia Main 212 boasts specially tweaked laminar ports to improve airflow and eliminate chuffing and other port noises. Finally, the Utopia Main 212’s flush-mountable cabinet handles both soffit-mount and freestanding deployment configurations with equally stellar results.
