Three amplifiers are integrated inside the subwoofer--70W RMS for the bass, and 2 x 30W RMS for the speakers. Place the satellites on your desk, and set up the subwoofer beneath. Dial in the bass level to adapt to the room acoustics and proportions, and forget about it. Enjoy glorious sound, iPod charging, and plenty of style in jet black and anodized aluminum.

Listen to Your Computer Audio
Connect Focal XS to your Mac or PC through the USB mode. Switch on XS. Listen to your favorite music from iTunes with the realism of a professional monitoring sound: definition, tonal richness, specialization, and power. And all this with extreme simplicity--no set-up, thanks to Focal's USB digital-to-analog converter.

Listen to and Charge Your iPod
Choose the adapter corresponding to your iPod and put it on dock. No cable necessary; your iPod will now recharge, and you can control it with the remote control. Switch on the synchro mode at the back of the dock; your iPod automatically opens in iTunes, and the synchronization begins. Very simple.

Quality Monitoring
The XS provides a great monitoring system for multimedia applications, great for "professional amateurs," sound and video lovers who work with audio software (Garage Band, Logic Studio, etc.), or solutions for video editing (iMovie, Final Cut, etc.). Definition, specialization, and low latency mean solid sound for your applications.

The Focal XS Story
Two years ago, Gerard Chretien, managing director at Focal, brought a pair of Solo6 Be Professional Studio Monitors at home ($2,500/pair). He connected them to his Mac in his office and quickly realized that there was nothing on the market that could rival this listening experience. He quickly set Focal's R&D on a seemingly impossible mission: to design a 2.1 system that would sound as close as possible to the Solo6 Be … and cost no more than $600. On January 8, 2008, the final prototype was finally unveiled to the press, and the XS made its first loud footstep.

2-way Satellite Design with 2.5-Inch Mid-Range Driver
Most computer systems use a single driver to reproduce both mid-range and high frequencies. The result is unrealistic-sounding vocals and loss of detail and clarity in the higher frequencies. XS remedies that by including both--a paper cone driver for the mids as well as a mylar tweeter for the sizzle.

VSC Visual Sound Coincidence Concept
By elevating the satellite off the surface it sits on, early sound reflections are greatly diminished. The result is a massive improvement in clarity. Instead of bouncing back off the desk, the sound is directly going to the listener's ears.

High-End Digital-to-Analog Converter through USB Connection
Most modern audio signals are stored in digital form (e.g., MP3s and CDs) andm in order to be heard through speakers, they must be converted into an analog signal. The Focal XS bypasses the computer's soundcard completely and applies its own high-end conversion with a Burr-Brown digital-to-analog converter. This brings out every little musical detail buried in the digital code.

Auxiliary Input
Focal XS has an additional analog input (1/8-inch minijack at the back of the right satellite) to connect additional sources like your TV, game console, CD player, Apple TV, etc. In fact, many people use Focal XS as the main sound system in their living room.

Two-Year Warranty
Focal XS is covered by a 2-year parts and labor warranty--peace of mind to accompany your great sound.

Review : Amazing achievement @ $600.00 and w/ given sources
There's not a lot more to say. This system is simply excellent; there is one caveat though: make sure you put enough real estate between the 2 monitors -- they need room to breathe. Soundstage width and depth are excellent if they're given enough room. When you hear it, try to remember this is a $600.00 2.1 system; it will be difficult. BTW: my main system consists of a Musical Fidelity Tri-Vista (tube) DAC, VTL Tiny Triodes, Monitor Audio Silver Series towers, Transparent and Cardas speaker and power cabling, etc. I've wasted a lot of money on systems and this definitely ranks as one of the best values in my collection (the Monitor Audios top the list).


I believe, explains the few gripe regards Focal XS Satellite Speakers with Dock for iPod and MP3 Players not fitting or leaking.

Hope this Focal XS Satellite Speakers with Dock for iPod and MP3 Players review was usefull!
