Focal ES 165 KX2 K2 Power Series Component System
Product Overview:
The Focal ES 165 KX2 is a flagship 6.5-inch 2-way component kit from the legendary K2 Power line. Hand-crafted in France, this system is designed for audiophiles seeking "Haute Couture" sound with extreme power handling and lifelike dynamics. It features Focal's iconic yellow Kevlar® sandwich cones and the "M"-profile aramid fiber tweeters, a combination that earned it the CES Innovation Award.
Key Features
K2 Sandwich Cone Technology
The heart of the ES 165 KX2 is its composite woofer cone. It uses an ultra-light foam core sandwiched between a layer of aramid fibers and a layer of glass fibers. This design provides the three essential pillars of a high-performance speaker: rigidity, lightness, and damping. The result is a precise, dynamic sound that remains uncolored even at high volumes.
Tuned Mass Damper (TMD®) Surround
This patented technology uses finely positioned toroidal weights to stabilize the rubber surround. By controlling the suspension's movement, TMD® significantly reduces harmonic distortion in the midrange (1kHz – 2kHz), ensuring vocals and instruments sound remarkably clear and natural.
"M"-Profile Inverted Dome Tweeter
The TKMX tweeter features a unique "M"-shaped structure made of aramid fiber. This inverted dome design disperses high frequencies with exceptional accuracy up to 22,000 Hz. When coupled with the bi-amplifiable crossovers, it allows for perfect control of the high end, providing smooth treble with lifelike definition.
Maximum Power Extraction
This is a 2-ohm system, meaning it is designed to extract the maximum possible power from your aftermarket amplifier. This leads to significantly more "punch" and higher SPL (Sound Pressure Level) than standard 4-ohm speakers. It also features a Radial VC cooling system that expels hot air from the voice coil to maintain reliability during intense listening sessions.
