Focal PC 165F Performance / Expert Series pair of 2-way 165 mm coaxial speakers with exclusive Flax cone. Grilles included in the package.

The PC 165F coaxial pair are an excellent choice as Hi-Fi car coaxial speakers thanks to the exclusive Flax linen cone made in Focal (also present in the models: PS 165F, PS 165FX, PS 165F3 or PS 130F). They can be used in combination with front speakers having the same linen cone to obtain a perfectly balanced sound, or they can be installed to replace other coaxial kits. The PC 165F coaxials are supplied with dedicated protective grilles.

Strengths of PC 165F coaxials

  • High sensitivity
  • High-tech design solutions and quality
  • Unique and patented LINEN cone (No. 1.350.116)
  • A new 100% made in Focal sound
  • Exponential cone
  • More compact tweeter support
  • Integrated crossover

Flax Cone Characteristics

Linen cones produce a natural, very dynamic sound without distortion. Composed of a layer of linen sandwiched between two layers of fiberglass, it combines lightness, rigidity and damping for optimal acoustics.

The tweeter renowned for its smooth and precise sound, mounted on a reinforced lower frame, benefits from the inverted aluminum and magnesium dome, and the Poron suspension.

To make installation easier and to optimize sound response, the basket has an integrated passive crossover. The shape of this aluminum basket has been optimized to improve coil cooling, which makes the difference during listening sessions.

FLAX (Linen)

FLAX, given its characteristics, soon became a valid candidate and at the end of tests, analysis and comparisons it turned out to be the ideal material for the core of a "popular" cost sandwich membrane. Essentially we found the solution around home, since France is the world's largest producer of linen considered among the best quality. But there are other reasons that made us prefer it.

The unique qualities of FLAX
Composite materials have properties suitable in applications where rigidity and low specific weight are required. They have, however, a serious drawback which is the lack of damping that leads to poor vibration control.
For this reason it is often necessary to add damping material for the absorption of the intrinsic vibrations of the material. FLAX is twice as light as fiberglass, as the fiber has cavities. It also has very low elasticity which is ideal for increasing the rigidity of the sandwich. Furthermore, it can be obtained in "non-woven" bundles of considerable diameters and thus produce the thickness required by the sandwich.


Flax then combines the 3 key factors required by the core of the sandwich material of speakers:

  • Low density
  • High resistance
  • Excellent internal damping
