The Focal TRIO6 Be 3-Way Near-Field Monitor innovates upon the concept of a professional near-field studio monitor by combining the company's famous 1" inverted Beryllium dome tweeter, a dual bass reflex ported 5" composite sandwich cone woofer in an isolated chamber, and a ported 8" composite sandwich cone subwoofer in a selectable 3-way or 2-way configuration, when set to "FOCUS" mode. The "FOCUS" mode can be activated by connecting a standard 1/4" foot pedal and is useful for when you want focus your attention on the mid and high frequencies of your mix. The drivers are contained within a 22mm MDF cabinet.

To allow both vertical and horizontal orientations of the speaker box, the tweeter and woofer are mounted in a rotating baffle which is capable of rotating 360 degrees in 90 degree increments. Using 450W of total power through a combination of one Class A/B (tweeter) and two Class G amplifiers (woofer and subwoofer), the monitors can deliver a frequency response of 35 to 40,000 Hz (in three-way mode) at up to 115 dB peak output with low, high, and 160 Hz notch filter adjustment controls.
