As their name suggests, the Focal Sub Evo is an evolution of Apple’s compact home cinema speakers, which have been the French manufacturer’s best-sellers for many years. Their main innovation is compatibility with 3D sound formats, thanks to the height channels with which both fronts are equipped with satellites, and retain the spacious design and competitive price that made their predecessors a success. A winning cocktail?

With this Sib Evo kit, Focal offers a successful evolution of its most popular home cinema kit, and a very good entry point into the world of “real” 3D sound at a reasonable price. Even if sound projection soundbars are making impressive progress in offering convincing localization and pleasing rendering, they are still far from the naturalness and authenticity of sound that such a combination can achieve. . It’s a shame that the somewhat disappointing subwoofer tarnishes the picture a bit.
