03
Thank you for choosing the Profile
loudspeakers. We are pleased to
share with you our philosophy:
“the Spirit of Sound”. These high
performance speakers feature the
latest technical developments from
Focal-JMlab in terms of speaker
design, whether it is for high
fidelity or home theater systems.
In order to (make the most of these
speakers) enjoy the maximum of
their performance, we advise you
to read this user’s manual and to
keep it carefully so that you can
consult it later.
The Focal-JMlab guarantee
only applies if the enclosed
guarantee card is returned to
us within 10 days of purchase.
Running-in period
The drivers used in the loudspeaker
are complex mechanical devices
and require an run-in period before
they deliver their best performance.
They must get adapted to the tem-
perature and humidity conditions of
their environment. This breaking-in
period depends on the encountered
conditions and can last several weeks.
In order to shorten this period, we
advise you to let your loudspeakers
operate for about twenty hours at
medium level, playing standard musi-
cal programmes, but with a large
amount of bass.
Once the components of the loud-
speakers are completely stabilized, it is
possible to enjoy the real performance
of your loudspeakers. Specifications
Aluminum / magnesium inverted
dome tweeter: inverted dome techno-
logy is exclusive to Focal. It allows an
optimized energy transfer. Aluminum /
magnesium
dome with Poron ®
surround reveals outstanding perfor-
mances thanks to a more dynamic
and softer tweeter.
"W" cone (midrange and woofer):
technology of "W" composite cone is a
Focal patent. "W" means "Verre-Verre",
because of the 2 glass leafs affixed to
both sides of a structural foam. Profile
uses the latest "W" cone’s upgrades:
new proportioning of glass leaf, new
foam thickness.
Bended, multi-fold MDF cabinet
structure: toughness and optimal
damping.
OPC
® (optimum phase crossover):
phase optimization for a precise,
natural and stable soundstage and
image.
Front and rear profiled port tubes:
for a vigorous bass reproduction
without any distortion effect.
Highly efficient acoustic wadding:
excellent internal damping, deeper
and tighter bass.
Stainless steel fixing screws: non-
corroding, even in humid climate.
Highly reliable input sockets.
Decoupling spikes.
