  • PDF

French hifi specialist Focal celebrates its 40th anniversary in 2019-- and plans to celebrate with the launch of a limited edition range of special "40 year" products at the upcoming Munich High-End Show.

Focal 40 yearsThe company is still to detail the actual products making the range, but it says it will include consumer sound solutions, in-car and professional products, all “combining heritage and modernity, to continue to bring music, design and emotions to life.” Or so the company claims, at any rate.

For the curious, Focal set up a first speaker driver manufacturing workshop within a precision mechanics company in Saint-Etienne, France, in 1979. It is still based in Saint-Etienne, and employs 250 employees as part of the Vervent Audio Group together with Naim Audio. It offers a fine collection of "Made in France" speakers and audophile headphones, as well as in-car and professional studio products.

The Munich High-End Show takes place on May 2019.
