Focal Chora 826 (Light Wood)
Speakers Per Pair
In stock
FREE Cyrus soundKey USB DAC/headphone amp
£1,299
The flagship Focal Chora 826 produces a big, powerful sound for a thrilling experience.
Ideal for cinematic and big-scale stereo sound
With the largest cabinet in the Chora range, plus an impressive array of drivers, the 826 punches hard. The size makes it ideal for larger rooms and effortless performance at high volume levels. Thanks to its front-facing bass port, this stylish Focal speaker works well placed closer to a rear wall than usual.
Twin woofers for thumping bass
This 3-way Focal speaker has not one but two woofers dedicated to bass; in each speaker. Delivering bass response to match many a subwoofer, the Chora 826 digs deeper and goes louder. Ideal for under-pinning all-action soundtracks or stadium music alike, the Chora 826 delivers expansive, powerful bass.
Time alignment gives enhanced cohesion
The Chora 826 features a time alignment stand. This tilts the speaker upwards, meaning the sound from the tweeter and woofer is aligned in the time it takes to reach your ears. Time alignment provides better interaction between treble and mid-range, making the music sound more cohesive and ‘together’ across the frequency response.
Slatefiber cone for balanced sound
The three characteristics required for smooth, natural sound from a speaker driver are rigidity, lightness and damping. Focal’s impressive new Slatefiber cone hits all three targets – and then some. Using non-woven, carbon fibres, sandwiched between layers of thermoplastic polymer, the woofer cone provides the perfect composition for smooth, precise sound – whatever the type of music.
TNF tweeters for smooth precision
Derived from the reference Focal Utopia’s Beryllium tweeter, the TNF tweeters use aluminium and magnesium with Poron suspension for an exceptionally smooth yet detailed sound. The Poron surround reduces distortion at a point critical to human hearing, giving silky-smooth treble. The classic Focal inverted dome is also present – helping to give a broader spread of sound in your room.
Sleek style – just choose your colour
Crisp, contemporary design makes these speakers stand out, without jarring. The crisp edges contrast with the magnetically attached, rounded grille. Choose between black, dark wood and light wood finishes for a style that best suits your room.
Immerse yourself in the music, with the enveloping sound from the Focal Chora 826.

Amazingly transparent
I had just completed building my own pre-amp and power-amp and was going to build my own speakers, but didn't want to wait any longer. I'm glad I didn't!! These speakers are amazing! Put on a track like "Wake me up" by Ed Sheeran, and it's like he's sitting there in front of you. You can point to the position of every instrument being played. Very happy. The only imperfect thing, is that the bass response doesn't go quite as low as I'd like, but what is there is great, and if you get a track with plenty of bass, like reggae, ska or dance, there will be plenty of physical "thump".

Great sounding Focal 826 Floor standing Speakers
I bought these Focal 826 speakers for my Hi Fi system wishing to upgrade from my current Bookshelf speakers. A read several reviews which gave the Focal product excellent rating. As I have a relatively small room I wanted a Floor Standing speaker with a front port so I can use the full extent of my limited space. The Focal speakers have a very unique appearance with a very striking front showing off the unique to Focal Slate drivers. They have a unique stand which tilts the speaker slightly upwards to focus the sound of the drivers. The sound was very detailed of the bat with the two bass driver offering a solid bass without over whelming my room. Surprisingly the Focal speakers were easier to drive the my previous Monitor Audio Silver RX-1's. I only have a 50W per channel amp but am only playing at -30dB so plenty of headroom. I am still in the process of running my speakers but so far I am truly impressed. It is great to see a European company design & manufacture their products the EU, these speaks are still manufactured in France.
