Focal Unveils Complete Range of Aria K2 Speakers

After the successful launch of Focal’s Aria K2 936 floorstanding speakers, Focal is expanding their Aria K2 line with the introduction of the Aria K2 906, a bookshelf model, and the Aria K2 Center, a center speaker. The K2 936 and K2 906, along with the K2 Center, offers a more complete package of performance and style for hi-fi and home cinema set-ups. Like its big brother, the K2 906 bookshelf features the same signature K2 power cone in yellow, as well as leather-effect front paneling and an ash gray premium finish. The new K2 906 and the K2 Center will be available at the end of the month for $1,990 per pair and $1,190, respectively. The K2 936 is available now for $5,990 per pair. See the press release below for more details.

September 2, 2021 – Focal, the leading French audio brand, is adding a bookshelf model and a center speaker to the Aria K2 family, allowing for a range of thrilling hi-fi and home cinema set-ups, alongside the Aria K2 936 floorstanding speaker launched last year.

THE EVOLUTION OF AN ICON

Aria K2 is a special edition of the original high-performance Aria 900 range, first launched by Focal in 2013. The Aria K2 906 and Aria K2 Center join the Aria K2 936 in offering an exceptional listening experience, enabled by range of Focal innovations, including a next-generation K2 cone.

Manufactured in France at the Focal workshops, this aramid fiber cone is an evolution of the iconic Polykevlar cone featured on classic 1980s JMLab speakers. The original was engineered to improve the balance between weight, rigidity and damping, with the goal of guaranteeing high-quality audio performance with any musical genre.

The all-new Focal K2 cone applies fresh technologies and techniques to enhance your music and movie listening further still.  It is now composed of a very light foam layer, sandwiched between a layer of Aramid fibers and a layer of fiberglass, ensuring clear and precise sound void of any coloration. Perfectly complementing the K2 cones are aluminum/magnesium TNF tweeters, with Poron suspension for a smoother sound. 

BEAUTIFULLY BUILT AND FINISHED

The new Aria K2 906 and Aria K2 Center join the Aria K2 936 in having an ultra-rigid cabinet construction, featuring non-parallel elements – all in the service of reduced vibrations and outstanding neutrality.

All speakers come in an Ash Grey finish exclusive to Focal. This premium finish – also seen on the company’s flagship Utopia products – combines with a leather-effect front panel for added elegance.

TONAL PAIRING FOR SEAMLESS SOUND

Aria K2 products work together in perfect aesthetic and sound harmony. As such, Aria K2 936 or 906 can be installed on their own or they can be combined with Aria K2 Center in a Home Cinema system. Focal also recommends linking this range with the Sub 1000 F subwoofer to give your Home Cinema installation a deep and powerful boost of bass.

The new Focal Aria K2 models will be available later this month, with a suggested retail price of $1,990 per pair for the Aria K2 906 and $1190 for the Aria K2 Center. The Aria K2 936 is available now for $5,990 per pair.
