Overview

Focal Aria Evo X N°4 Floorstanding Loudspeakers

The Focal Aria Evo X N°4 is the big floorstander in the Aria Evo X family, designed for listeners who want more bass, more scale, and more authority from their two-channel system.

With two 8-inch Flax woofers, a dedicated 6.5-inch Flax midrange, and Focal's TAM aluminum/magnesium tweeter, the N°4 can fill a substantial listening room while maintaining the natural midrange and detail that define the Aria Evo X series.

It's a serious full-size loudspeaker without making the jump into Focal's Kanta, Sopra, or Utopia ranges.

Dual 8-Inch Flax Woofers

The biggest difference with the Aria Evo X N°4 is easy to see.

Focal uses two 8-inch Flax woofers, giving the N°4 considerably more ability to move air than the smaller Aria Evo X models.

Bass response reaches 37Hz ±3dB, with low-frequency extension down to 31Hz at -6dB.

That gives the N°4 real weight and authority for rock, electronic music, orchestral recordings, and anything else that benefits from a larger sense of scale.

For many two-channel systems, you may not need a subwoofer at all.

Focal Flax Cone Technology

The woofers and midrange use Focal's patented Flax sandwich cone technology.

Natural French flax fiber is placed between two thin layers of fiberglass, creating a cone that combines three things Focal wants from a loudspeaker driver:

  • Low weight
  • High rigidity
  • Excellent internal damping

The result is fast, controlled bass combined with a natural midrange that doesn't add unnecessary coloration to voices and instruments.

Dedicated 6.5-Inch Midrange

The N°4 uses a dedicated 6.5-inch Flax midrange driver, allowing the two larger woofers to concentrate on reproducing bass.

Focal's TMD — Tuned Mass Damper — suspension helps stabilize the midrange driver's movement and control unwanted resonance.

That separation is important in a speaker this size.

You get the power and scale of the dual 8-inch woofers without asking those same drivers to reproduce the critical vocal range.

TAM Aluminum/Magnesium Tweeter

High frequencies are handled by Focal's 1-inch TAM inverted-dome tweeter, manufactured in Focal's workshops in France.

The aluminum/magnesium dome uses Focal's distinctive "M" profile for increased rigidity and wide dispersion.

A decompression chamber behind the tweeter helps control the rear wave and reduce distortion.

The result is clean, detailed treble with a wide listening area—something that's particularly useful when the system is in a living room or entertainment space rather than a dedicated single-chair listening room.

92.5dB Sensitivity

With 92.5dB sensitivity, Aria Evo X N°4 is relatively efficient for a loudspeaker of this size.

Focal recommends amplification between 40 and 350 watts per channel.

But don't let the sensitivity number make amplifier selection an afterthought. The N°4 drops to 2.5 ohms minimum impedance, so a quality amplifier with good current capability will get considerably more from the speaker.

This is where proper system matching matters.

Made in France

The Aria Evo X N°4 is made in France, continuing Focal's long history of developing and manufacturing its own loudspeaker technologies.

The cabinet uses ultra-rigid MDF construction to control unwanted vibration, while an aluminum-alloy base provides stability and proper mechanical grounding.

Available finishes include:

  • Black High Gloss
  • Prime Walnut
  • Moss Green High Gloss

The leather-effect front panel gives the N°4 a more finished, furniture-quality appearance that works well outside a dedicated listening room.

Focal + Naim

Focal recommends the Naim Uniti Nova PE and Uniti Star as partners for the Aria Evo X N°4.

The Uniti Nova PE is an especially interesting combination when you want a powerful but extremely clean system.

Streaming, DAC, preamplification, and amplification are all handled by the Naim, leaving you with a simple system consisting of the Nova PE and a pair of Aria Evo X N°4s.

That's one of the advantages of shopping at The Grid HiFi as a Focal Powered by Naim store.

We can build and demonstrate Focal and Naim as a complete system rather than treating the speaker and electronics as unrelated products.

Two-Channel or Home Theater

Aria Evo X N°4 can anchor a serious two-channel listening system, but it can also become the front left and right speakers of a complete Focal home theater.

Combine it with matching Aria Evo X center and surround speakers, properly selected subwoofers, and quality theater electronics and you have a system capable of delivering both excellent music reproduction and high-impact movie sound.

And that's an area where The Grid can take the project much further than simply selling the speakers.

We can design the complete theater or media room, including the processor, amplification, subwoofers, television or projection system, acoustic treatment, lighting, networking, and Control4 automation.
