Power to Control Every Channel

Having tons of channels in your home theater is one thing, but having them all work together is what really matters. Low-powered amplification can sap the impact out of your effects. Weak processing can muddy your dialogue or special details. That’s why the Focal Astral 16 packs both amplification and processing into one powerhouse device. It gives you 16 channels of amplification with enough clean power to run even the most power-hungry theater setups.

What’s more, it gives you enough processing control over each channel to make sure everything sounds great. Dialogue sounds crisp and clear, effects sweep around your room with ease, and your music will retain all the details you love. Movie watching, music listening, and gaming just sound better when you’ve got total control over the presentation.

Experience Sound that Fits your Room

Room acoustics play a big part in how your system sounds. Walls can bounce sounds around your room. Couches and chairs can absorb certain frequencies. Speakers placed too close to a wall can overpower other channels. Room correction is just as important as having enough amplifier power. That’s why the Astral 16 is compatible with Dirac Live®. Dirac helps eliminate common room issues and creates a tighter, more consistent sound.

In addition to Dirac Live®, the Focal Astral 16 also supports Dolby Atmos, DTS, and Auro-3D processing for three-dimensional sound.  Instead of only coming from the front of your room, your soundscape expands to deliver a more immersive experience. With Dirac Live® processing and up to 200 watts of power per channel, your system has everything it needs to control the biggest movies.

Built to Power Your Complete Theater Experience

Integrating all of your components should make your system easier to use. That’s why the Focal Astral 16 comes with HDMI 2.0, HDCP 2.2, balanced XLR outputs, and multi-room audio support. These features allow you to integrate a variety of sources, amplifiers, and displays without ever feeling untidy or complicated.

As your system grows, you’ll appreciate how much room you have to grow with the Astral 16. You can use it to power surround sound setups while still allowing you to keep everything manageable under a single processor. With the Dreamedia+, you can find the right speakers, amplification, room setup, and more to keep every component working together.
