Focal Unveils Utopia Main 112 and Utopia Main 212 Studio Monitors

Focal is elevating its studio monitors with the introduction of the Utopia Main, a new range designed to take studios to the most demanding levels required by audio professionals with main and midfield options. Leveraging innovations from the company’s ultra high-end speaker range, the new Focal Utopia Main 112, and Utopia Main 212 are professional designs with completely new drivers, exceptional power, and advanced functionality.

Amphion announced it will be launching the One25A at NAMM 2023. This is the first active studio monitor design from the Finnish loudspeaker manufacturer, which, since its foundation, has remained faithful to passive speakers, although the company always supplied the full system, with a dedicated amplifier in a separate black box. This new 3-way reference monitor design is said to exemplify the brand’s 25-year commitment to advanced acoustic design, top-quality component selection, and pure signal path, while providing a uniquely Amphion twist to the perks of an active monitor design.

Genelec announced the 1032C two-way nearfield monitor, now upgraded with the cutting edge features and flexibility of Smart Active Monitoring (SAM) advanced monitor auto-calibration and networking software, plus significant across-the-board improvements including a digital input, higher SPL and increased low frequency extension. The 1032C monitor uses the same drivers, acoustic design and soffit-mountable classic styling, simply upgraded for the most demanding modern studios.
