{"product_id":"focalariaevox3blackhg","title":"Focal Aria EVO X N°3 Floorstanding Speaker, Gloss Black (Pair)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Focal Aria EVO X N°3 is a slim 3-way bass-reflex floorstanding speaker from Focal's French Aria EVO X series. Supplied as a pair.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThree 16.5 cm Flax woofers, a dedicated 16.5 cm Flax midrange driver and the inverted TAM tweeter deliver, in a cabinet only 29.4 cm wide, more cone area — and so more dynamics — than the N°2, without visually dominating the room.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy the Focal Aria EVO X N°3?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause three woofers together move a lot of air without the cabinet growing wide. The Flax cone made of French flax is light yet rigid — it accelerates fast and delivers dry, precise bass hits instead of a mushy boom. The waveguide on the TAM tweeter keeps the highs fine and focused. The result is a “wolf in sheep's clothing”: a slender build with full-grown dynamics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat you'll hear\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCrisp, controlled bass with punch, a clean midrange and refined highs — dynamic and precise, even on fast bass lines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho's the Aria EVO X N°3 for — and who isn't it for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStraight talk: the N°3 is ideal for medium to larger living rooms where dynamics matter but space is limited. It's not built for an industrial hall run flat out — it's a refined performer with muscle, not a PA speaker. And the minimum impedance of 2.8 Ω calls for a powerful, stable amplifier.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes the N°3 work as a front speaker in a home cinema?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. Thanks to the third woofer it has reserves for dynamic film scenes and pairs with the Aria EVO X Center and matching surrounds into a coherent set.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eOur verdict\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA lot of dynamics from a slim cabinet — the N°3 is the smart choice when you want floorstander power without overwhelming the room. The specialist press agrees: What Hi-Fi? and Trusted Reviews praised the N°3 in 2024 for refinement, an expressive midrange and a lot of speaker for the money (What Hi-Fi with a slight reservation on timing). At HD Zürisee in Wädenswil we sort out the right amplifier and positioning for you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical data – Focal Aria EVO X N°3\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3-way bass-reflex floorstanding speaker\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWoofers:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3× 16.5 cm Flax\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMidrange:\u003c\/strong\u003e 16.5 cm Flax\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTweeter:\u003c\/strong\u003e 25 mm Al\/Mg TAM inverted dome (M-profile)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFrequency response:\u003c\/strong\u003e 39 Hz – 30 kHz (±3 dB)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLower cutoff frequency:\u003c\/strong\u003e 32 Hz (-6 dB)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSensitivity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 92 dB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eImpedance:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8 Ω (minimum 2.8 Ω)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended amplifier power:\u003c\/strong\u003e 40 – 300 W\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions (W×H×D):\u003c\/strong\u003e 37.1 × 115 × 29.4 cm (with plinth)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 29 kg per speaker\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Gloss Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScope of delivery:\u003c\/strong\u003e pair of N°3, aluminium plinths, magnetic front grilles, fitted spikes + spare spikes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does the N°3 differ from the N°2?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe N°3 has a third woofer and a larger cabinet: more dynamics, deeper bass (32 instead of 37 Hz at -6 dB) and more reserves — at almost the same width.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat amplifier suits the N°3?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause of the minimum impedance of 2.8 Ω, one with reserves and a stable load (e.g. MOON).
