The Chora 806 loudspeaker showcases meticulous manufacturing and design. Let yourself be transported by the delightful, dynamic musical quality emitted by its bass/midrange speaker driver, equipped with the exclusive Focal Slatefiber cone. Alongside the TNF Aluminium/Magnesium tweeter with its silky treble, the “slate” colour of the speaker driver makes it an attractive yet high-performance solution.
The surround linking the dome to its stand uses a memory foam material called Poron. This surround is directly derived from the Utopia’s famous Beryllium tweeter and reduces distortion by a third between 2,000Hz and 3,000Hz, the ear’s high-sensitivity range. The spatialisation and very low directionality of the inverted dome allow silky trebles to be heard from any point in your listening room.
Slatefiber technology, exclusive to Focal, involves the use of recycled, non-woven carbon fibres applied as a sandwich between two layers of thermoplastic polymer. In their quest for perfection, Focal engineers have opted to use non-woven carbon fibres, all pointing in the same direction to achieve even greater rigidity and better damping.
Manufactured in the Focal workshops using an ultra-modern industrial tool, the “slate” effect of the cone provides better damping and rigidity, but also lightness – the three “essentials” of a good speaker driver.
The Chora range offers a modern design, the slate colour of the Slatefiber cone adding a final refined, authentic touch.
The stand (optional) is tilted for Time Alignment which provides an optimal soundstage, more focused on the listener.
Luxurious, detailed sound.
Somewhat large, subjective.
I have good hearing, it is quite difficult to surprise me, easily outplayed 3 stripes in quality, yes, more elderly, but trusted to mind, Raditehnika S-90. A dense, rich bass, a great prospect, I have impressed. I strongly recommend buying. It is required exclusively Hi Res Music. Foobar player, external DAC, and sampling 24/192KHZ.

Sound and design made in France
No Bi-Wiring, a little expensive
They work as rear in the system with Denon X3600h and 826 Khoroy at the front in the 37m room. I expected them to be slightly smaller in size. The sound in the cinema is completely satisfied. Music in the multi -tank too, but you have to reduce their volume, because They begin to shout the fronts, it may be the case in different cables (these in Acoustic Premium, and the fronts on Qed Anniversary) is generally satisfied, expensive, but of high quality.

Music made in France
In principle, no
With acoustics I use a mustache of the Denon PMA 800. The room is 13 sq.m. Pure crystal top. The middle is not very emphasized in some tracks, but this is rather a plus, since there is no porridge. Bogos for my room is enough, but there is a slight mutter I think this is because of the impossibility of providing acoustics or amplifier. In the whole, the sound is balanced in the detail does not cut the rumor. The capture is still needed more help. Probably. It will play almost all genres except the most cruel. I recommend for purchase.
