Frequently Asked Questions - Astral 16 FOCAL
What amplifier do you recommend for the Astral 16?
An amplifier of 50 to 150 W RMS into 8 ohms is ideal. Focal amps or brands like Naim, Cambridge Audio, or Rotel are compatible.
How to wire the Astral 16 speaker?
Use a good quality cable (2.5 mm² cross-section) and connect the terminals respecting polarity (+/-). Bi-wiring possible if the amplifier allows it.
What is the ideal distance between the speakers and the wall?
Place the speakers at least 30 cm from the rear wall to avoid unwanted reflections. The spacing between the two speakers should be 2 to 3 meters.
Does the Astral 16 require a break-in period?
Yes, a break-in period of 50 to 100 hours at moderate volume allows the suspensions to loosen and achieve optimal performance.
Can I use the Astral 16 in a home theater setup?
Yes, as a main speaker. For the center channel and surrounds, pair it with other models from the same Focal range for sonic consistency.
Are the grilles removable?
Yes, the grilles are removable and held by magnets. The sound is slightly more direct without the grille.
What is the warranty for the Astral 16?
Focal offers a 5-year warranty on the drivers and cabinet. Electronic parts (filters) have a 3-year warranty.
How to clean the speaker?
Use a slightly damp microfiber cloth for the cabinet. Never spray liquid directly. For the grilles, a low-power vacuum is sufficient.
Can I replace the tweeter myself?
Yes, the tweeter is accessible after removing the grille. Use a genuine Focal part (reference: Tweeter TM16). Follow the instructions in the manual.
