Chorus 706 V is the epitome of 
a reference, compact louds-
peaker: a true Focal tradition. 
Superbly balanced and neutral, 
its accuracy and definition are 
ideal for rooms near 20m
2
.
Chorus 705 V is the ideal 
loudspeaker for installation in 
rooms of modest dimensions 
(approximately 15m
2
). With a 
responsive and lively bass, it 
represents the foundations 
of a great system, especially 
when paired with the SW 700 V 
subwoofer.
The smallest of the Chorus V 
floorstanders exhibits a fine 
form with a minimal footprint. 
Elaborate yet balanced, the 
Chorus 714 V benefits from two 
5" (14cm) woofers in a 2-and-a-
half way configuration to deliver 
solid bass. Ideal for rooms of 15 
to 25m
2
.
The Chorus 716 V examines 
the 2-and-a-half way formula 
in a high-end configuration, 
with two  6
1/2
" (16.5cm) woofers 
working in tandem in the bass 
(only the higher unit also 
reproduces the midrange). 
Double the bass impact for 
rooms up to 30m
2
.
The Chorus CC 700 V is a 
centre loudspeaker that has 
been phase-optimized to offer 
an optimal directionality. Its 
qualities of dynamics, linearity 
and timbre are equally in 
phase with the ensemble of the 
Chorus 700 V line to maintain 
an excellent sonic coherence.
The Chorus 726 V is the 
accessible high-end loudspeaker 
incarnate: technically very 
advanced, its 3-way design 
marries the exceptional definition 
of the midrange with the 
power of the two 6
1/2
" (16.5cm) 
woofers. A great sound, ample, 
generous, and more… up to 40m
2
.
The same drive-units as in the 
Chorus V line, in a very flat 
and compact loudspeaker, this 
is the key to the SR 700 V. It 
is aesthetic, discrete and an 
all-out performer! Ideal to fill 
large surround spaces and to 
accompany Chorus 700 V in 
multi-channel mode.
A considerable evolution of the 
famous SW 700 S subwoofer of 
the last generation, the new 
SW 700 V uses the same motor 
(BASH
®
 amplifier and 11” 
 
Polyglass woofer) in a more 
elaborate cabinet design which 
is among other things, much 
more rigid. More depth, more 
impact.
