SLIM PROFILE
Developed in France by Focal, ASE 165 S stands out for its shallow mounting depth (just 4.8 cm), which makes it easy to install in car doors. Sturdy loudspeaker bowls guarantee long life.
PERFORMANCE
Polypropylene for the woofers, mylar for the tweeter: the materials chosen by Focal for the loudspeaker diaphragms are the source of hi-fi quality sound. The central ogive of the woofers enhances off-axis listening.
Focal performance at your fingertips
INSTALLATION FLEXIBILITY
ASE 165 S can be combined with external or factory amplification. The tweeters are surface-mounted in the windshield pillars, or can be positioned in the original slots.
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.
