100 OD 8
Outdoor speaker
Benefiting from Focal know-how, 100 OD8 delivers high-quality sound outdoors. It delivers slightly higher efficiency and power handling than the 100 OD6, enabling you to configure a higher-performance installation. With its anti-UV treatment and IP66 certification (the benchmark for protection and waterproofing), the loudspeaker is highly resistant to extreme weather conditions and dust. Thanks to its high impedance (8 ohms), two other speakers can be connected to the same amplifier output.
FOCAL SOUND
Aluminum inverted dome tweeter for excellent sound dispersion; bass/midrange driver with Polypropylene cone and Polyglass treatment for perfect definition: the loudspeaker reproduces hi-fi quality sound outdoors.
EASY INTEGRATION
Thanks to its mounting bracket and 180-degree rotation system, the loudspeaker is easy to install and position. Perfect integration requires special attention to design: the ready-to-paint grille and cabinet are available in black or white.
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.
