The Focal Revolution: How a French Hi-Fi Manufacturer is Revolutionizing Your Music Listening Experience

Driving change in any industry is difficult; it took Apple more than two decades to become the leading media and technology brand in the world and in the process completely changed how people consume music, movies, and television.On a much smaller scale, Focal is changing how high-end consumers listen to music outdoors, while traveling, at their desks, and in the home. Their award-winning loudspeakers and headphones can be found in every corner of the globe and their Focal Powered by Naim retail experience is winning converts across North America, Asia, and Europe. The French manufacturer took the long-term view and it is paying off.How did Focal get here?EIC Ian White sat down with Focal Marketing Product Manager, Rejean Bedel, to discuss the past, present, and where the Focal/Naim family is headed.Thank you to our sponsor Focal for the support of our programming!https://www.focal.comCredits:• Original intro music by The Arc of All. sourceoflightandpower.bandcamp.com• Voice Over Provided by Todd Harrell of SSP Unlimited. https://sspunlimited.com• Production by Mitch Anderson, Black Circle Studios. https://blackcircleradio.comKeep up-to-date with all the latest Hi-Fi, Headphone, Home Theater and Music news by visiting:https://www.ecoustics.com#hifi #ecoustics #focal #customintegrationspeakers #hometheater #breakingthesoundbarrier #focal #naim #thevaspeakers #ourdoorspeakers #frenchdesign• Original intro music by The Arc of All. https://sourceoflightandpower.bandcamp.com• Voice Over Provided by Todd Harrell of SSP Unlimited. https://sspunlimited.com• Production by Mitch Anderson, Black Circle Studios. https://mixcloud.com/blackcircleradioKeep up-to-date with all the latest news and product reviews on hi-fi, headphones, home theater, music and more. https://www.ecoustics.com
