When developed, our engineers sought to create an active digital loudspeaker for the listener who demands high resolution 24 bit / 192 kHz uncompromised audio quality. What they came up with not only surprised themselves – with its bottomlessly deep bass and incredibly realistic sound-stage, the Focus XD utterly impress, Wilfried Erhenholz, founder of Dynaudio: 

 “When our engineers presented the Focus 200 XD in a very early stage, I was sitting there and I couldn’t believe what I heard.

“The orchestra was playing in the widths and depths like if it was real. I’ve never heard this before”.

Each Focus XD driver unit is powered by its own perfectly matched and performance optimized digital amplifier with precise DSP fine-tuning ensuring the impressively low-frequency output is always delivered with precision and in harmony whether it is reproducing the aggressive impact of a kick drum or the subtleties of a viola:

“The bass is almost bottomlessly deep and can deliver anything from the sledgehammer-like impact of an aggressive kick drum to the subtle caress of a viola with equal authority and with unparalleled accuracy,” Greg Borrowman.

In the Focus XDs, the music signal stays digital as far in the chain as possible for increased consistency and a true high-resolution listening experience tailor-made for the listener wanting to explore the potential subtleties of 24 bit / 192 high-resolution audio.
