🎶 Compact Subwoofer with Full-Fidelity Output
The SUB5KM is a 5-inch car subwoofer, uniquely designed for tight installations where traditional subwoofers simply won't fit. Don’t be fooled by its size—this sub brings clarity and punch, adding weight to your music without sacrificing space.
It’s tailored for use in high-end component systems, where the midbass driver plays a crucial role in filling out the bottom end. Whether you love jazz, acoustic, or electronic music, this subwoofer provides tight, rich bass extension.
🇫🇷 French Engineering Meets Audiophile Performance
Part of the acclaimed K2 Power family, the SUB5KM features Focal’s signature K2 composite sandwich cone. This aramid-fiber design is both lightweight and ultra-rigid, delivering fast transients and minimal distortion.
The cone is paired with a Tuned Mass Damper (TMD) surround, which controls cone movement and reduces resonance. This design ensures accurate, smooth bass response across a wide range of frequencies.
From dynamic percussion to soft upright bass, every note comes through with exceptional definition.
⚡ Designed for Efficiency and Control
The Focal SUB5KM supports 75 watts RMS and up to 150 watts peak power, making it ideal for well-tuned front-stage systems. Its 4-ohm single voice coil allows for flexible amplifier matching and precise crossover integration.
This subwoofer is best used in a DSP-controlled system where tuning and frequency alignment can be fine-tuned for seamless audio transitions between drivers.
When installed properly, the SUB5KM enhances your system’s realism, delivering sound that feels both powerful and natural.
🛠️ Versatile Installation Options
Thanks to its compact size, the SUB5KM installs easily in kick panels, custom doors, or pillar builds. It’s ideal for high-performance systems where space is limited but performance must remain high.
With a shallow mounting depth and sleek frame, it fits into custom enclosures or OEM factory locations with minimal modification. This makes it perfect for stealthy installs and show-quality builds alike.
