For people who really love sound, the high-gloss black with black matte front Kanta N°3 Floorstanding Speaker is a new benchmark in high-fidelity from Focal. The Kanta N°3 features Focal's exclusive Flax cone drivers with Focal's NIC technology to provide unparalleled neutrality and accuracy in sound reproduction. For the high frequencies, Focal has developed an inverted dome tweeter made from pure beryllium, which promises high-frequency response up to 40 kHz for incredible detail. Along with the precision drivers, Focal's multiple-port Powerflow system lowers dynamic compression while increasing depth and impact.
This acoustic masterpiece performs at its best in large rooms, from 430 to 860 ft2. Adjustable floor spikes are included with protective cups for placement on any flooring. All Focal speaker drivers are developed and manufactured in France by Focal.
Beryllium and Flax
For the Kanta series, a Flax sandwich cone speaker has been combined with a Beryllium tweeter. This unique flax/beryllium combination gives audio incredible warmth and musicality. Made in France, the patented flax cone has already proven itself in other Focal speakers, like the Aria 948. The midrange speaker uses TMD (Tuned Mass Damping) suspension, and every Kanta series speaker is also equipped with an NIC (Neutral Inductance Circuit) motor, which stabilizes the magnetic field for perfectly defined sound and better controlled bass. The IAL3 beryllium tweeter combines the IAL (Infinite Acoustic Loading) and IHL (Infinite Horn Loading) tweeter features, both of which help with the absorption of waves, thus reducing distortion.
Beryllium Tweeter
The linearity of the speaker's response curve is mainly a function of three conflicting parameters: lightness, rigidity, and damping. Currently, only one material permits a joining of these parameters: Beryllium. For domes with identical masses, beryllium is seven times more rigid than titanium or aluminum, the latter two well known for their rigidity. This results in a sound wave propagation three times faster than titanium and two and a half times faster than aluminum. In the end, the linearity of the frequency response curve, the acoustic transparency, and the impulse response of the beryllium tweeter are maximized and offer near-perfect sound.
Flax Cone
Flax cones are made of a high-quality flax fiber core enclosed by two thin layers of glass fiber. Flax is twice as light as fiberglass, because the fiber is hollow. It also has very-low elasticity, which makes it ideal to increase the flexural rigidity of the sandwich structure. To design a high-performance diaphragm, you have to optimize a complex set of criteria, which are for the most part contradictory. The composite solution using flax in a sandwich structure with fiberglass skins is a very harmonious way of combining low mass with high internal damping, high velocity of sound, and high flexural rigidity.
The flax cone is made in France exclusively by Focal since 2013. With their original design, the cone is entirely oriented towards acoustic performance. Flax cone are characterized by their natural sound, with low coloration, their richness of reproduction in the midrange register and their tighter bass.
Premium Cabinet Design
With the Kanta series, everything is designed and made to create acoustic softness and warmth, including the density and stiffness of the front panel and cabinet materials, softened angles, and double port vents. The cabinet is made from one-piece integrally molded wood. The front panel is molded in one piece from High-Density Polymer (HDP). This material has excellent performance; it is 70% denser than MDF, 15% stiffer, and provides 25% more damping. The one-piece front panel totally eliminates any sound diffraction. The Zamac base also brings out masses of character. With its spikes and cups, the base provides great stability from a very small footprint. Additionally, the Kanta N°3 incorporates Focal's Powerflow technology with two vents, on the front and rear faces, to limit bass compression.
