The 165 VR is a 6.5-inch, two-way speaker kit from Focal's Polyglass VR line. Included are the 6 VR woofer, an Aluminum/Magnesium inverted dome tweeter and a separate crossover. The 6 VR offers extremely high efficiency, and its 94.5dB sensitivity reveals the smallest details--transcendent on drums and percussion. The tweeters deliver smooth and precise sound, with a surprisingly large center. A great replacement for your OEM components.  | About the Polyglass Line Focal's Polyglass line combines advanced technologies, quality manufacturing, and serious know-how to provide solid performance at an affordable price. The Polyglass cone uses glass for reinforcement, with an even covering of micro glass spheres over the entire cellulose pulp paper cone, greatly increasing its rigidity without adding significant weight. The Polyglass tweeter and woofer conspire for a neutral sound with excellent detail, perfect for your music. |

Polyglass Technology
Polyglass, a Focal specialty, refers to the controlled deposit of hollow silica micro-spheres over a cellulose pulp cone. The objective is to combine cellulose the damping properties of pulp paper with the rigidity of glass, without increasing the overall mass of the cone. Aluminum Phase Plug
Phase plug designs control midrange out of the listening axis, for added accuracy. 85mm (3-1/3") Magnet
High sensitivity where everything begins. Zamac Chassis
This strong, rigid zinc alloy chassis is non-magnetic and nonresonant. The TNB Tweeter Aluminum inverted dome tweeter technology offers significant rigidity and lowers distortion. Inverted Dome Design
The inverted dome tweeter is a Focal specialty that has been developed to precisely optimize dome and coil coupling in order to transform the electrical energy into an acoustical wave with minimal loss in comparison with a conventional raised dome. The inverted dome supports itself evenly on its entire surface, which provides a much more improved three-dimensional radiation, which during listening, translates into a surprisingly large soundstage. Flush/Angle Mount
Hardware and tools are included for both flush and angle tweeter mounting. Polyglass Crossover The Polyglass series crossovers feature refined audiophile components, for perfect integration into most any vehicle. Adjustable Tweeter Level
Adjust the tweeter level control according to location (3 level settings) with a simple switch.

About Focal Innovation is key to the Focal sound. For 25 years, through the pursuit of constant new advances in technology, Focal has been able to develop a harmonious research and production system that enables us to continuously improve our products and introduce new ones, all with the same goal: the most faithful reproduction of music. The latest example of this philosophy has been the introduction of Beryllium in our top products, which has become a new reference worldwide. Constantly pursuing innovation is the embodiment of Focal's corporate strategy and that goal involves every facet of the company. From R&D to production to quality control, all our teams are fully involved and focused on this one objective: continual progress through innovation. In today's world, where globalization and the pursuit of chasing cheaper production methods have tempted most companies to splinter their organizations, Focal has opted to be different. Though we have grown tremendously through the years, our R & D, headquarters and manufacturing facilities remain based in Saint-Etienne (France). We have learned that true innovation is not simply work carried out at the research department, but is also a question of comprehensive management and the direct control of the different production phases. The example of Beryllium is a significant one. Only three years ago no one was capable of producing tweeters with a pure Beryllium foil dome. Focal innovated a solution based on research and the invention of specific in-house industrial processes. Such an approach has given us an important advantage over our competitors: we develop our own technology, which allows us to consistently provide true quality production using our own methods. In 2008, the Focal Car range gets richer with a new amplifier line: Solid. This perfectly sums up Focal's commitment for high musical quality from the entry-level contrary to the general tendency that consists in looking for the cheapest prices in priority instead of performance.The result is music standardization and trivialization, which is highly prejudicial to sound quality. Focal cultivates this difference. This is the core strength of our brand and our company. This is the Spirit of Sound. We want to share this with you... It is our Utopia
