Focal Kanta Centre Speaker
The Focal Kanta Centre Speaker is an excellent addition when combined with Kanta N°1 floor standing loudspeakers or the bookshelf loudspeaker, whatever the front and back configuration.
The extreme definition of the higher mid-range register and its tonal balance make this a formidable weapon in any Home Cinema set-up. Film fans will be surprised by the sound clarity and speech intelligibility, which are far superior to the norm. The remarkable neutrality lends itself to thrilling emotion for an unparalleled Home Cinema experience.
The Sub 1000F subwoofer is the complementary solution to make an ultra high level Home Cinema configuration. And, when it is then linked with the 300 ICW 4 in-ceiling loudspeakers, even the most exacting film fans will enjoy an incredible 3D audio experience in Dolby Atmos, DTS X or Auro-3D.
Optional stand available for optimal integration under the screen.

DISRUPTIVE DESIGN
Kanta’s design team dared to do it! We have really proved ourself when it comes to freshening things up. The look of this loudspeaker is highly original, whilst remaining true to its values: revisited Focus Time, a fantastic silhouette… Give your music a makeover!
AN IMMERSIVE HOME CINEMA EXPERIENCE
Kanta’s expertise comes into its own in a Home Cinema set-up: a set of classic loudspeakers, linked with Kanta Center, whose dialogue playback is incredible, and the Sub 1000 F… Combine this with the 300 ICW 4 ceiling speakers, and even the most exacting film fans will be blown away by an incredible 3D audio experience in Dolby Atmos, DTS X or Auro-3D.
BERYLLIUM AND FLAX
For the very first time, a Flax sandwich cone speaker has been combined with a Beryllium tweeter.
Flax is the answer to the low mass/rigidity/damping equation, leading to sound clarity and precision.
This unique Flax/Beryllium combination gives music incredible warmth and musicality. Made in France, this patented flax cone has already proven itself in Focal home and in-car speakers. The midrange speaker uses TMD (Tuned Mass Damping) suspension, and every Kanta speaker is also equipped with an NIC (Neutral Inductance Circuit) motor, which stabilises the magnetic field for perfectly defined sound and better controlled bass.
STYLE AND THAT’S ALL…
Focal’s engineers have revisited their choice of ‘Focus Time’, which corrects speaker alignment, making them the same distance from the ear.
The cabinet is made in one-piece integrally moulded wood. The Zamac base also brings out masses of character. With its spikes and cups, the base provides great stability from a very small footprint. Final details: the glass-covered top and magnetic grilles. When these are removed, they reveal the speakers’ flax cones, the final design touch that gives Kanta its unique look.
FINISHES
The Focal Kanta Centre Speaker is offered with a matte front panel combined with a body in Black High Gloss, White High Gloss, Walnut High Gloss or Matte Walnut, providing a broad choice of contemporary combinations. The sophisticated, matte finish absorbs light instead of reflecting it, which enhances the colours.
