EC 165 KE
EC 165 KE
2-way coaxial kit 16.5 cm
Compact and robust, the EC 165 KE audio kit is composed of two 6.5” (16.5 cm) woofers with coaxial tweeters. It is equipped with Focal’s aramid fiber membrane. A heritage of our acoustic know-how, this iconic yellow membrane combines lightness, rigidity, damping, the ideal characteristics for obtaining a good loudspeaker. The result is a faithful, dynamic and perfectly defined sound.
SMOOTHNESS AND PRECISION
TKME coaxial tweeters deliver smooth, accurate treble. Combined with an "M" profile, their inverted domes with K2 diaphragms deliver optimum high-frequency dispersion.
FOCAL TECHNOLOGIES
K2 membrane, TMD® suspension, progressive profile spider, aluminum frame, coil ventilation system... K2 Power kits embody the very best of Focal know-how for high power handling and precise, dynamic sound.
CONVENIENCE AND COMFORT
The EC 165 KE is a compact design with a rugged, uncluttered profile, giving your Car Audio installation character and style.

TECHNOLOGIES
K2 SANDWICH MEMBRANE
Purity and precision of sound
The diaphragm, the key component of a loudspeaker, is at the heart of our acoustic engineers' research. Shape and materials are essential for high-fidelity reproduction. In 1986, our teams unveiled an aramid fibre sandwich membrane, recognizable by its unique yellow color. It has been extensively renewed over the years, while retaining the characteristics that made it such a success. Today, it consists of an ultra-light foam core sandwiched between a layer of aramid fibre and a layer of glass fibre. It combines the three key factors of a loudspeaker membrane: rigidity, lightness and damping, for a precise, dynamic and uncolored sound.
TMD SUSPENSION
Stabilized surround, eliminates vibrations
While our engineers are experts in the development of exclusive diaphragms, they also innovate in all the components that make up the loudspeakers, such as the surround that connects the diaphragm to the frame, the performance of which must be mastered. Introduced in 2015, Tuned Mass Damper (TMD) technology with harmonic damping consists of the addition of finely positioned toroidal weights to stabilize the surround for even greater sonic neutrality. This technology enhances the midrange and the erratic behavior of the surround between 1 kHz and 2 kHz.
TWEETER TKME
Harmonic balance
As specialists in loudspeaker membranes, Focal's acoustic engineers are constantly working on the creation of new cones, as well as on all associated components. Mounted on a highly resistant aluminum mounting, the TKME "M" profile tweeter extends the frequency response to 22 kHz, while further reducing distortion, for smooth, accurate high-frequency reproduction. Coupled with a push-pull motor based on IAL2 technology, it reaches very low resonance frequencies, for perfect harmonic balance.
