Focal Alpha 50 Evo 5" Mixing Monitor

The Focal Alpha 50 Evo Monitor is all about one thing: giving any engineer access to a stellar sound at a relatively wallet-friendly price point. With its bass-reflex rounded cabinet, versatile filtering, clean class-D amplification, and its bevy of connection points, this monitor can suit a wide variety of mixing rooms, giving mixing and post-production engineers a sound they can rely upon.

Between its frequency range of 45 Hz to 22 kHz, the monitor is neutral and accurate. You can drive it with unbalanced or balanced audio and adjust the sensitivity to match. Mount it against the wall or on the wall itself for multichannel immersive audio formats. An IEC power cable is included, as is a protective grille for the woofer.

Excellent Dynamics, Balanced Sound
Stocked with Focal's exclusive, French-manufactured Slatefiber woofer, the Focal 50 EVO provides an excellent presentation of dynamic range. You'll also notice that the speakers are quite balanced. You'll get the same sonic picture throughout your monitoring environment, not just in the sweetspot. And, the monitors have been engineered to give you the same frequency balance at any loudness.
Flexible Mounting
This monitor is built to be used in a variety of ways. Mount it on a stand, in a traditional nearfield setup, or use the built-in insert to mount the speaker to a wall for immersive formats, such as Dolby Atmos.
A Variety of Inputs
Dedicated XLR, 1/4" TRS and RCA inputs are on hand, so you're covered for pretty much any professional or high-end consumer analog connection.
Comprehensive Room EQ
Adjust the low midrange or the high end to better suit your environment. You'll note a filter adjustable between 0 and 300 Hz (±6 dB), as well as a treble-centric one selectable between 4.5 and 22 kHz (±3 dB).

Auray IP-S Isolation Pad for Studio Monitor (Small, Single)

The small IP-S Isolation Pad from Auray is a monitor speaker isolation pad made from high-density acoustic foam. It is designed to decouple your monitor speakers from its resting surface by absorbing the monitor's vibrations. This stops reverberation through the desk or speaker stands, therefore preventing unwanted resonance. Removing these unwelcome vibrations results in greater depth of field, tighter low end and transient response, and a higher level of detail across the frequency spectrum.

Set at Three Different Angles
Up position: Angle your speakers up for desktop use
Down position: Angle your speakers down for use on a monitor bridge or shelf
Flat position: Flip the pads upside down to set your speakers flat on adjustable speaker stands
