Focal 100 ICW6
SELECT OPTIONS:
100 ICW6
2-way coaxial speaker
The big sister of the 100 ICW5, the 100 ICW6 features a 16.5 cm driver. The speaker can be flush-mounted in walls and ceilings, and offers perfect sound diffusion for stereo use (bedroom, kitchen...) or home cinema configuration (living room, dedicated installation). It combines acoustic technologies, discreet design and functionality for listening pleasure.
BALANCED SOUND DIFFUSION
The loudspeaker features a compact, directional tweeter and a Polyglass diaphragm driver for defined, spatial highs and mids. A crossover reduces the sound's "shower effect". In addition, the treble level can be equalized according to the acoustics of your room, via a choice of three available positions.
RESISTANCE
The "tropicalization" of the Polyglass membrane enables 100 Series products to adapt to humid environments such as bathrooms.
SIMPLICITY AND DISCRETION
With its shallow mounting depth and optimized mounting brackets, the loudspeaker is quick and easy to install. The unibody frame and ready-to-paint magnetic grilles ensure discreet integration in any living space.

TECHNOLOGIES
INVERTED DOME TWEETER
Optimum space dispersion
The inverted dome tweeter has been a Focal signature since 1981, offering the property of being a true micro-speaker. The curvature of the dome is much less pronounced than that of positive domes. This results in better space dispersion and very low directionality, unlike ribbon tweeters. The inverted dome tweeter therefore generates unrivalled dynamics, enabling sound engineers to precisely control the dosage of compression. The precision of the image (height, width and depth) is remarkable, making it easy to position each instrument. What's more, a waveguide has been developed to perfect spatialization and further enhance the inverted dome's very low directionality. In the horizontal plane, the frequency response is within +/- 0.5 dB. This performance guarantees an incredibly stable soundstage.
POLYGLASS MEMBRANE
Well-defined mids
The diaphragm, the key component of a loudspeaker, is at the heart of our acoustic engineers' research. Polyglass technology, exclusive to Focal, consists of applying fine glass microbeads to a cellulose pulp cone. This process reconciles the excellent damping of paper with the rigidity of glass. The stiffness index is almost 10 times that of polypropylene. Adjusting the mass-rigidity-damping ratio results in a remarkably linear frequency response curve, right from the membrane design stage. This innovation also significantly increases definition in the midrange register.
