Focal Aria SR9000 (Paar)

Surround Instead of Direct Radiation

The Aria SR900 is designed as a bipolar loudspeaker for surround tasks. This means it does not aim for maximum localization precision like a front loudspeaker, but rather for a diffuse, wide sound distribution. That is exactly what is desired in home cinema when effects are meant to envelop the room. This creates a more immersive impression on the sides or rear of the setup.

Flax and TNF

The two 13 cm Flax mid-woofers deliver a natural fundamental tone with clean definition. This is complemented by the two TNF tweeters, whose waveguide controls the directivity and distributes the highs smoothly. This keeps the sound precise without feeling harsh. It pairs well with other Aria models because the tonal tuning remains consistent.

Easy to Integrate

With its slim enclosure, 5.6 kg weight, and Polyfix wall mount, the SR900 is designed for easy installation. This is especially practical when surround speakers are to be integrated into the room discreetly and cleanly. The included fabric cover further supports its understated appearance, ensuring functionality takes center stage without dominating the living space.

For Suitable Home Cinema Setups

The SR900 is ideal if the front consists of Focal Aria speakers and the surround layer should match tonally. With an amplifier recommendation of 25 to 120 watts, it can be used with many AV receivers. What matters less is raw power than a clean, balanced overall system. It then fulfills its role as a surround speaker very convincingly.
