Focal SM9R Active Studio Monitor – Right

Every studio speaker you could need, large main 3-way monitor and standard 2-way nearfield speaker in one. Further tuning is possible with extensive EQ options for tailoring the SM9 to your listening environment. All this is underpinned by some of the finest speaker design available from award winning, masters of audio Focal.

The Focal SM9 garnered a glowing review in Sound On Sound

There is no doubt in my mind that the Focal SM9 is one of the finest monitors in its class available today. The level of performance packed into its modestly sized cabinet is extremely high and more than justifies its asking price. If you are in the fortunate position of being in search of a nearfield monitor at anywhere around or above its price point, the SM9 is a monitor that you really have to audition. For my part, I’ve started saving already!
