Sib XL: user manual
Thank you for choosing the Sib XXL loudspeakers. We are pleased to share
our philosophy : "the Spirit of Sound". Sib XL has been especially designed
to hang on walls and match with Plasma or LCD on-wall flat screens. Sib
XL fits right into the Focal tradition and, as such, benefits from outstanding
technological expertise in stereo and home theater.
In order to get optimal performance, we invite you to read carefully these
instructions and keep that booklet handy so that you can refer to it later on.
Features
Aluminum dome tweeter with OAL (Optimum Acoustic Loading) phase plug: exceptional bandwidth up to 35kHz
for wide dispersion, smooth and dynamic treble, compatible with new high performances audio format.
Polyflex
®
cone woofers: high performance synthetic cone for high dynamic bass impact and detailed mid-range.
OPC
®
(optimum phase crossover): phase optimization for a precise, natural and stable soundstage.

"On wall/free standing" switch: optimize the frequency response for "On wall" or "Free standing" use.
Adjustable logo: for horizontal or vertical positionning.
High rigidity ABS cabinets: rigid cabinet without any internal resonance.
Twin aerodynamic port: for a vigorous bass reproduction.
Magnetic shielded: Sib XL can be placed near a CRT without distorting the picture.
Splash proof: can be used in a kitchen or bathroom, outside to shelter from the rain.
Optional Hop and Bop stands.
Run-in period
The speakers are complex mechanical devices and require an run-in period before they deliver their best performance.
They must get adapted to the temperature and humidity conditions of their environment.
This run-in period depends on the encountered conditions and can last several weeks.
In order to shorten this period, we advise you to let your loudspeakers operate for about twenty hours at medium
level, playing standard musical programmes, but with a large amount of bass.
Once the components of the loudspeakers are completely stabilized, it is possible to enjoy the real performance of
your loudspeakers.
The Focal-JMlab guarantee only applies if the enclosed guarantee card is returned to us within 10 days of purchase.
