Floorstanding loudspeakers — Focal SOPRA N°3

The SOPRA N°3 is the flagship floorstanding loudspeaker within Focal's Sopra series, sitting above the SOPRA N°2 with the highest sensitivity and greatest mass within this specific product family. The SOPRA N°3 brings Focal's most accomplished current Sopra-series engineering to a substantial floorstanding format.

Key specs that matter

Rated response is 33Hz to 40,000Hz within plus-or-minus 3dB, extending marginally deeper than the SOPRA N°2. Sensitivity is a notably high 91.5dB into the standard 8 ohm load - the highest within Focal's Sopra series comparison. Recommended amplifier power spans a wide 40-400W. At 59.5 x 126.4 x 40.2cm and 70kg, the SOPRA N°3 represents Focal's most substantial current Sopra-series commitment.

Sound and use context

Expect explosive dynamic headroom reflecting the notably high 91.5dB sensitivity combined with the substantial 40-400W power tolerance and considerable 70kg mass, representing Focal's flagship-tier current Sopra-series engineering.

Pairing

The standard 8 ohm impedance and substantial 40-400W recommended range suit capable amplifiers with real power reserve.

Alternatives

Focal's own SOPRA N°2 sits below this flagship model at somewhat more moderate scale, worth considering instead if the SOPRA N°3's additional scale exceeds what a specific room requires.
