Focal Access Car Speakers | Crutchfield Video 

I got those focal Access and let me tell you guys that I’m impressed with the sound. I have the 3 way components in the front and the two coaxials in the back. With a 10” 600 watts sub two amps

From Italy...Focal for me just the best! No compromise

I have a whole Rockford Fosgate system in my car. 6.5 T2's in the front, dash tweeters, 3 way 6x9 in the rear deck, 2 12 P1's in the trunk. I find with Rockford that they really come alive when you're listening to rock or metal. If you listen to anything else, they sound good, but just good. I was really looking into Focal speakers as a replacement in my next car.

Btw everybody, speakers are not designed to play one type of music (rock, jazz, hip hop, etc). Good speakers are designed to reproduce ever frequency in its bandpass equally, thus creating true acoustics. If you have a good speaker, it will play everything well! You can then eq to taste.

i also bought focal acces speakers and the sound just blow your mind...!!!!! realy good choice for someone who wants good music!

The Focal won't handle as much power (300 RMS vs. 1000 RMS) as the Type-R but they are much more efficient (92.8dB vs. 84.9dB) which will make up for a lot. Both offer deep frequency response and excellent build quality. Feel free to call for additional assistance: 800.315.0030--Crutchfield

Got a set in my Magnum. Love them. I listen to everything, @ loud levels. No distortion what so ever. High quality equipment.

@82mage Please accept my apologies for the delayed response. All MP3 files are compressed. The sole purpose of the MP3 file format is to compress a large audio file to fit within a smaller memory space. The real question is: how much compression was applied? The answer lies within the bitrate (kbps) that was used to encode the file. A higher bitrate means less compression and a lower bitrate means greater compression.

Not that we’ve found. Many manufacturers have their products assembled in multiple locations. They are made to the same standards with the same materials and are covered by the same warranty. Feel free to call for additional assistance: 800.315.0030--Crutchfield

I've had the Polyglas 3 ways for almost 12 years now, they still play awesome, back in the day I used to listen a lot of Techno, Hip Hop, I would recomend this speakers, however they will sound better if you run them Active I have them pair with JL Slash amps 1 300/4 for the mids and tweets, and 1 300/2 for the mids and an Alpine 7 series, highly recomended.

@OmarRam1 I guess it all depends on what you are comparing them too. To some they might seem expensive, and to others they might seem cheap for the superior level of sound they provide. You can see their prices, customer reviews, and all the specs you can handle if you look these speakers up on the Crutchfield website. You can also find out if they fit your car right on the website, or you can call and ask one of our Advisors. Hope that helps, CrutchfieldTV, 800 315 0030

Focal number 1!!!

@crutchfieldtv What is the most clear sounding speakers? My prime concern is not base but CLARITY!

@82mage All mp3 are compressed, get atleast 320 kb/s for focal stuff else you might aswell buy cheaper stuff. Best is either flac or Apple lossless.. They are lossless codecs wich, just like winzip, compress but retain the original data.

can anyone tell me about the 12" Focal SUB P 30 DB's compared to alpine type R's? or if they are even good at all?

This is a very general question. I normally do all my own car audio installs but this time i want an expert to do it and then are trying to sell me on Focal speakers. I really havent heard of them before so I am not sure. Are they higher end speakers? Then sub he wants me to get is a 10 inch focal that is only 4ohm 200 watts. I just dont get too excited about 200 watts. Is it just low because it is that much better that this 4 ohm 200 watt speaker is going to hit hard?

In the same price range how do these compare to Infinity Kappa series and Hertz? I currently own kappa series components and have been pleased for years but I’m toying with the idea of trying something else when I change vehicles.

Which speaker sounds more alive? Sony xs-162es or Focal es 165k? Pls reply crutchfield because i'm planning to buy one of those speakers i said'

I just bought a set of 165vb for my single cab Silverado 2021. Can I run them of the deck or will I need a amp? And will I be able to run them with an amp but keeping my stock stereo?

Hertz Mille's.......Perfection

Hey Crutchfield. I'm thinking of replacing my speakers in my 09 Impala. So if I listened correctly I can replace my factory speakers without replacing the factory deck if I decided to do so right? Thanks!

Focal or morel?

@crutchfieldtv How can you tell if a MP3 is "compressed" and is there a way to un-compress it. Let's say the MP3 player is just a normal Ipod Classic.

Crutchfield. can you tell me the difference between type R 6x9's verses Focal access 6x9?

@bigmackburger i actually have the Focal polyglass and i love all types of music. mostly metal rock alteranative and sop rap and hip hop and they sound great in my little subaru legacy.even without my subs they still give the right amount of punch of bass. i highly recomend. they may be pricy but worth every penny.

I have installed 4 speakers the one you have shown here (the Twitter one) 3 years ago on my Blaupunkt car stereo and I am not happy at all with the sound....from very first day... I am thinking of throw away those speakers and like to install pioneer. Please Let me know what I did wrong?

You actually pronounce it Focal like you would Vocal not Foe Cal . Not sure why some people do this. Guessing it’s a California thing

i bought these for my car 2 in the front and 2 in the back, sounds only slightly better

Is the Focal ISU 570 same sound quality as the Focal PS 165 V1 or Focal 165FX?

No offense but this video was pretty bland. I can tell you just by text that my stock Infiniti G35 has Bose and these speakers were great back in 2003 but they're very harsh in the high-end treble, lacking in the mids, and medium in the bass. Bose are known for sounding good because they boost the high-end and it's the same trap guitarists fall into when tweaking metal guitar presets; high bass, no mids, high treble = sweet metal tones... I replaced my front speakers with Focals and just by doing that my quality went up 75% because it added more bass and mids with a decent amount of treble but they don't distort at high volume. My rear deck is still stock Bose that I'll be replacing here soon and I'm thinking about sticking with Focal 6x9s to keep it all together. I don't have experience with Polk speakers but I do have experience with Polk 12" subs and they slap greatly. Powered by a 2,000 watt amp, I have a nice blend of everything in my coupe. I still hear some fizziness coming from my rear Bose speakers but it's light years ahead of what it used to be with all Bose. For a coupe where you're limited with speaker placement and more reflections than you'd find in a sedan, I am starting to favor speakers with bigger low end and mids without so much treble due to those reflections and lack of speakers that you'd find in sedans in the back doors.

Hey Crutchfield, I've got a 2011 F150, dynamat head to toe and currently running the Infinity Kappa 682.9cf in front and Alpine SPR-68 in the rear. All four are running off the Hifonics Brutus Elite 800.4 with a 12" shallow mount Pioneer on a Performance Teknique Icbm-1200.1 all driven with a Clarion EQS746 equalizer - all purchased from you, except the mono amp. No matter how well I tune or tinker I can not get the mids I am craving. I am thinking about purchasing the Focal ISS 570 components, putting them up front, moving the Infinity's back and removing the Alpine's. But all of my current speakers have 100w RMS handling from the 800.4 and the Focal's are only rated for 60w RMS. Is it a necessity to change amps or can the Focal's take the power? Thanks for everything, past, present and future!

Somebody didnt iron their slacks.... wah wah wahhh.. lol.... good review though

Why don't you just play the speakers so we can hear them for ourselves! Also the inverted dome actually aids dispersion...quote from Focal concerning inverted dome tweeter.... "It provides better space dispersion and very low directivity". As experts in the field you should really check the facts before making a video viewed by thousands of people! Also when you are selling high end equipment you are dealing with people who know audio.

" If your like me and really want to listen deep to it" ....If your like most customers You really want something that cost less than your car. Check out E-Bay and forgo the talking and get the price upfront and get customer review ...or is that too deep?

I honestly dont see where there products are that good. I just had some out in today and they are distorted and sound horrible. And i let them tune my radio.

@bigmackburger Buy with confidence dude! I have listened to the Focals with many different types of music, including everything you mentioned, and they never faltered. Make sure you give them good clean power, and use a high quality source. No heavily compressed MP3s, these speakers are good enough to reveal how bad a bad source can be just as well as they can make good sources sound amazing. Call us for more.

FOCAL ELITE K2 and you will never use something else ;-)

I have NEVER heard speakers actually sound good with the crap 14 watt RMS every aftermarket car CD player provides...

Hear all the nuances: What a joke in a car!

he's clearly reciting shit before each cut. this guy is a joke. "if you really listen to your music... i mean... REALLY listen to your music... this is the stuff for you"

A car is not a good environment for music listening. People can wax poetic all they want about the fidelity of their car speakers but it doesn't matter. Road noise, other vehicles, glass right in front of you.
