Keeping Dialogue Connected to the Action

You reach for the remote. Quiet movie suddenly becomes unbearably loud. Someone missed something you said. The explosion restarts and you flip down the volume again. Investing in a quality center channel speaker helps stop this cycle. Focal Vestia Center Speaker keeps voices attached to the screen. Dialogue remains clear and understandable without blasting out the rest of your movie’s soundtrack.

This performance comes from its dual 6.5-inch Slatefiber mid-woofers and M-shaped inverted dome tweeter. The woofers provide body to spoken voices. The tweeter accentuates the nuances that make speech seem lifelike. More importantly it ties all those details together. Musical scores and expanding sound effects don’t swallow the dialogue.

Balance Voices Against a Busy Movie Scene

Everyone knows your center speaker plays dialogue. But it also needs the depth to stand up to the rest of your movie audio. So, its bass- reflex enclosure gives the Focal Vestia Center Speaker added low-end. 91.5 dB sensitivity means it doesn’t need a monster amplifier to play confidently.

Coupled with its frequency response of 58 Hz to 30 kHz, this center speaker can handle vocals and musical scores as easily as it can effects and soundtracks. Finally, its power handling of 40–200 W RMS gives you options when matching it to your AV receiver or amplifier. When that coffee shop conversation explodes into an action sequence, your center speaker keeps up with the change in pace.

Create a Cohesive Front Soundstage

Ideally your center speaker should blend into the same soundstage as your left and right speakers. It fits seamlessly with other Focal speakers to create your front stage. Its available finish of Black High Gloss or Light Wood helps it match your décor as well.

Configuring your front three speakers is more important than buying the biggest speakers. Use our Home Theater Design Tool to map out speaker positioning and seating arrangement. Also, Dreamedia+ helps you match your speakers and design your overall system. Once you have your front soundstage set up properly, you’ll never miss another line of dialogue because its sound came from behind the screen.
