Frequently Asked Questions about Access 130AS


What are the frequency response parameters of the Access 130AS Speaker Set from Focal?

The Access 130AS Speaker Set from Focal offers a frequency response of 65 Hz to 20 kHz. This means that this speaker can cover low frequencies starting from 65 Hz up to high frequencies of 20 kHz. This range is optimal for a variety of music genres, as it allows for both deep bass and clear high-frequency reproduction. The wide frequency range ensures that all tones in the music are reproduced with precision, resulting in a detailed sound image. Especially in combination with other components, this can create a balanced and dynamic sound.

What role does the sensitivity of 90 dB play in the Focal Access 130AS?

The sensitivity of 90 dB, measured at 2.83 V/1 m, indicates how loud the speaker will get when a certain signal is applied. Higher sensitivity means more volume at the same power amplification, which is significant for the efficiency of the speaker. The Focal Access 130AS is therefore well-suited to achieve high sound performance in combination with amplifiers without significant power losses. This is particularly important when using the speakers in a setup that relies on clear and powerful music performance.

How does the nominal power handling of 50 W RMS behave during operation of the Access 130AS?

The nominal power handling of 50 watts RMS of the Access 130AS speaker indicates the continuous load of power it can handle. This means the speaker can receive 50 watts of power over an extended period without damage or distortion. This is especially important when you operate speakers continuously in an intense setup with ongoing music use, as it ensures the longevity and reliability of the speaker. Be careful not to exceed the 50 watts RMS with the amplifier to ensure stable performance.

How can the adjustable treble level of the Access 130AS be utilized?

The adjustable treble level of the Access 130AS can be varied between -3, 0, and +3 dB. This allows you to fine-tune the sound character according to your personal preferences or room acoustics. If you want to emphasize the highs, you can set the level to +3 dB, while a setting of -3 dB provides balance if the highs are too dominant. This gives you full control over the sound balance and ensures that the speaker is optimally integrated into your acoustic environment, which is especially useful for different types of music.

Specify the maximum load capacity of the Focal Access 130AS Speaker Set.

The maximum load capacity of the Focal Access 130AS Speaker is rated at 100 watts. This maximum load capacity describes the highest power peak that the speaker can handle temporarily without damage. For example, during particularly dynamic musical passages or sudden volume jumps, this short-term load can be important. Note that this value should not be used as continuous power but shows the maximum peaks that the speaker can handle. It is crucial to use a suitable Amplifier to avoid exceeding this limit over time.

What installation dimensions should be considered for the Access 130AS Speaker Set?

The installation diameter for the Access 130AS Speaker Set is 117 mm, which is compatible with many vehicles and speaker mounts. The installation depth is 54.7 mm. These dimensions are critical to ensure that the speakers are installed correctly and fit into the intended mounts. Make sure there is enough space in your vehicle to install the speaker correctly and without tension, which ensures the best possible performance and minimizes rattling or vibrations that could affect sound quality.

How does the nominal impedance of 4 Ohm affect performance?

The nominal impedance of 4 Ohm in the Access 130AS Speaker determines how the speaker presents electrical resistance in relation to the amplifier's characteristics. An impedance of 4 Ohm offers standard compatibility with most car audio amplifiers. It allows for efficient use of the amplifier's power and achieving high sound pressure levels. For installation in a car or an existing sound system, this impedance generally provides flexibility in choosing amplifiers and setups, as many market amplifiers are optimized for 4 Ohm speakers.

What is the function of the fiberglass membrane in the woofer?

The fiberglass membrane in the 130 mm woofer of the Access 130AS ensures a robust and lightweight construction that allows for improved response to rapid frequency changes. This membrane provides a balanced combination of stiffness and damping to minimize distortion at high volumes while producing powerful bass tones. Especially with complex musical pieces, the membrane-based sound output is crucial for maintaining clarity and making nuances in the bass range audible. Thus, the woofer offers a combination of durability and acoustic excellence.

Are there specific requirements for the amplifiers of the Focal Access 130AS speakers?

For the Focal Access 130AS speakers, it is advisable to use amplifiers that are compatible with their rated load of 50 W RMS and an impedance of 4 Ohm. This ensures optimal power delivery and prevents under- or overloading that could lead to distortion. An amplifier should therefore support the speakers without exceeding their load limits. Amplifiers with a power of around 50 watts per channel are ideal for maximizing sound quality while simultaneously protecting the speakers from damage due to excessive power.

How can the Access 130AS be optimally integrated into an existing car sound system?

To integrate the Access 130AS into an existing car sound system, the dimensions of the speakers are crucial: With a mounting diameter of 117 mm and a depth of 54.7 mm, they fit into many standard speaker cutouts. During installation, these dimensions often provide the necessary flexibility to place the speakers in the intended locations. Before installation, ensure compatibility with the existing system connections to mount the speakers without extensive modifications. Also, consider the proper orientation for balanced sound distribution in the vehicle.
