Like all fourth generation K2 Power kits, the ES 165 KX2E system enhances on-board listening. It consists of two 16.5 cm woofers with K2 aramid fiber membrane, a Focal innovation revealing rich and powerful sound. The central cone of the woofers guarantees better dispersion of sound within the cabin, for perfect immersion.

The fourth generation of K2 Power, with its emblematic aramid fibre cone, remains true to K2’s precious and
distinctive DNA, by focusing on performance, power and style, while incorporating patented innovations to
deliver the best. Designed, manufactured and developed in our workshops in France, the 2-way component kit
ES 165 KX2E also features the FRAK tweeter, an exclusive Focal technology that lies behind sensational treble.
The listening experience is marked by unparalleled harmonic balance.

Key points

K2 sandwich diaphragm

The K2 sandwich membrane features an ultra-light foam core sandwiched between a layer of aramid fibre and a layer of glass fibre. Iconic for its outstanding performance and instantly recognizable by its yellow color, this cone ensures great purity and precision, all without coloration. It combines the 3 key factors: rigidity / lightness / damping. It offers high-quality acoustic reproduction, whatever the style of music listened to.

Profile “M

The innovative one-piece “M” profile (without core cover) delivers exceptional rigidity. The result? Extremely linear frequency response, low distortion and improved sound dispersion.

The many advantages of the “M” profile:

• Wide bandwith, resonance control and damping;
• Reduced harmonic distortion;
• Better sound dispersion thanks to its geometry and angle of inclination;
• Reduced depth of moving parts, for a smaller driver footprint;
• Optimal power handling thanks to the possibility of integrating large coils

Combine the pleasure of listening with the pleasure of driving

FOCAL TECHNOLOGIES

TMD® suspension, progressive-profile spider, aluminum frame, optimized coil ventilation system… K2 Power kits benefit from Focal’s acoustic expertise for high power handling and precise, dynamic sound.

CUSTOM INSTALLATION

For optimum, flexible mounting, the tweeters can be mounted in one of three ways: in their original position, flush-mounted, or tilted to perfectly orientate the soundstage in your vehicle.

Optimized filters

A high-performance soundstage

Every element of a loudspeaker is important. Our engineers focus on every component, including the crossovers. These filters deliver a signal to each speaker that will allow it to work optimally over the frequency range for which it was designed. For K2 Power kits, all crossover components have been specifically selected and optimized to better control the effects of heat dissipation, and manage the channels and soundstage with reliability and performance.
