100 ICW5

2-way coaxial speaker

Dedicated to residential use, the 100 ICW5 coaxial wall or ceiling speaker with its 13 cm driver stands out for its sound performance and discretion. Proven technology, discreet, efficient design, a host of features, easy, appropriate use: let the 100 Series surprise you and create the installation to suit your needs and desires.

POLYVALENCE

Flush-mountable in walls or ceilings from 8 to 35 mm thick, 100 ICW5 is perfect for sound diffusion in high-traffic areas (hallway, living room), for stereo use (bedroom, kitchen…) or in Home Cinema configuration (living room, dedicated installation). The tweeter level can be adjusted to match the acoustics of your room.

MOISTURE RESISTANCE

Thanks to the “tropicalization” of Polyglass midrange drivers, 100 Series products can be adapted to humid environments, such as bathrooms.

SIMPLICITY AND DISCRETION

With its shallow mounting depth and optimized mounting brackets, the loudspeaker is quick and easy to install. The unibody frame and ready-to-paint magnetic grilles ensure discreet integration in any living space.

TECHNOLOGIES

INVERTED DOME TWEETER

Optimum space dispersion

The inverted dome tweeter has been a Focal signature since 1981, offering the property of being a true micro-speaker. The curvature of the dome is much less pronounced than that of positive domes. This results in better space dispersion and very low directionality, unlike ribbon tweeters. The inverted dome tweeter therefore generates unrivalled dynamics, enabling sound engineers to precisely control the dosage of compression. The precision of the image (height, width and depth) is remarkable, making it easy to position each instrument. What’s more, a waveguide has been developed to perfect spatialization and further enhance the inverted dome’s very low directionality. In the horizontal plane, the frequency response is within +/- 0.5 dB. This performance guarantees an incredibly stable soundstage.

POLYGLASS MEMBRANE

Well-defined mids

The diaphragm, the key component of a loudspeaker, is at the heart of our acoustic engineers’ research. Polyglass technology, exclusive to Focal, consists of applying fine glass microbeads to a cellulose pulp cone. This process reconciles the excellent damping of paper with the rigidity of glass. The stiffness index is almost 10 times that of polypropylene. Adjusting the mass-rigidity-damping ratio results in a remarkably linear frequency response curve, right from the membrane design stage. This innovation also significantly increases definition in the midrange register.
