FOCAL CONFIRMS ITS POSITION AS LEADER IN THE CAR AUDIO MARKET, WITH AN ALL-ROUND OFFERING
Focal has been present on the car audio market for over 30 years, with its vast range of complementary and high-performing products, enabling any driver to create the system of their choice. Developed by Focal engineers with the aim of making on-board High-Fidelity even more accessible, both technically and financially, the ISUB TWIN passive subwoofers combine as superbly with traditional Focal in-car products as they do with solutions from the Focal Inside Plug&Play range. They have also been optimised to be specifically connected to the Focal Impulse 4.320 amplifier, leaving 2 channels available on the latter to amplify a pair of speaker drivers in the front doors for example. Sold by pair, each subwoofer can handle up to 100 watts RMS, a very comfortable power to obtain percussive basses. Focal enhances its product offering for the automotive, with its new subwoofers: ISUB TWIN After revealing two brand new lines of Plug&Play audio kits for Mercedes-Benz and Volkswagen group vehicles in January, Focal now introduces its ultra-compact subwoofers, ISUB TWIN. The French brand continues to invest in and optimise its range of Car Audio products, perfectly meeting market expectations with easy-to-install products. EASY INSTALLATION AND ACCESSORIES SUPPLIED Focal places the user at the centre of its efforts when it comes to the design and development of its products. The ISUB TWIN subwoofers are robust and ultracompact–only 8cm high–and are easily installed in a vehicle by sliding these under the seats. They can also be screwed to the floor or simply fitted without tools thanks to the self-adhesive strips supplied.
The pair of ISUB TWIN passive subwoofers considerably increases the bass impact of an on-board audio installation, in particular thanks to the heavy and robust double ferrite and aluminum diaphragm speakers. The front grilles promote optimized sound dispersion in the passenger compartment. The installation of these ultra-compact boxes is simple and quick, without modification to the vehicle. They slide easily under the seats* and attach very simply, without tools, using the hook-and-loop straps provided. However, it is very easy to screw them into the floor if you wish. We recommend powering the ISUB TWIN with the Impulse 4.320 amplifier, two channels of which will remain available to connect a pair of speakers in the front doors for example.
RUNNING-IN PERIOD
In order to get the best of your ISUB TWIN speakers, a running-in period must be respected to ensure they are ready for this. We recommend that, once the system is ready for listening, the drive units should be run-in with medium volume setting, with music that has the full bandwidth of frequencies (sub-bass through treble). This running-in period should last for a few weeks, to gain the full potential. After which the excellent performance of your ISUB TWIN kit can be fully appreciated.
