Focal Alpha 80 Evo – 8" Active Studio Monitor with Slatefiber Cone and Class D Amplification
The Alpha 80 Evo is the flagship of Focal’s Alpha Evo range, offering extended power and precision for music producers, composers, and mixing engineers. Designed and manufactured in France, it features a custom 8” Slatefiber woofer and a 1” aluminium inverted dome tweeter, both powered by high-efficiency Class D amplification (115 W total) for superior dynamics and low distortion.
With a frequency response extending from 38 Hz to 22 kHz, the Alpha 80 Evo delivers exceptional low-end accuracy and brilliant clarity in the highs, making it ideal for full-range monitoring in both music production and sound design. The proprietary Slatefiber cone, made from recycled carbon fibers, ensures a balanced, controlled response and excellent damping, even at high volumes.
The cabinet design includes a front-facing laminar port for easy placement in any studio setup, as well as flexible connectivity options with XLR, TRS, and RCA inputs. Designed to support long sessions with consistent performance, the Alpha 80 Evo is a reliable monitoring tool for professionals who demand transparency, power, and modern design.
