Focal At CES 2026: Redefining Home Audio From Compact Systems To Flagship Hi-Fi

CES 2026 provided a prime opportunity to experience Focal’s latest innovations, and the brand did not disappoint. From compact, immersive all-in-one systems to flagship wireless loudspeakers, Focal demonstrated how high-fidelity audio can be both powerful and effortlessly accessible.

Mu-so Hekla: Compact, Immersive Home Cinema

The Mu-so Hekla is a masterclass in compact power. Measuring just 4.65 x 39.37 x 11.61 inches and weighing 15.5 kg, it fits elegantly on furniture while delivering Dolby Atmos® sound for fully immersive 7.1.2-channel playback. Fifteen speaker drivers—7 on the front, 2 per side, and 4 on top—work in harmony to fill rooms up to 40m² with deep bass, crystal-clear dialogue, and expansive soundstage.

Powering the system is 660W of Class D amplification from Naim Audio, ensuring rich detail at any volume. Focal’s ADAPT room calibration technology and custom Sphere audio modes use Beamforming and Crosstalk Cancellation to create precise, high-fidelity spatialization tailored to the listener’s space.

Connectivity options are extensive: HDMI eARC, optical TOSLINK, RCA output for an optional subwoofer, Wi-Fi 6, AirPlay, Google Cast, UPnP™, Bluetooth 5.1, and access to major streaming services such as TIDAL, Qobuz, Spotify, and QQ Music. Multiroom capabilities allow synchronization across up to 32 Focal & Naim devices. The tactile rotary volume dial and brushed anodised aluminum finish complete the package, balancing luxury design with effortless control.

Diva Mezza Utopia: Wireless High-Fidelity Elevated

On the other end of the spectrum, the Diva Mezza Utopia represents the pinnacle of wireless home Hi-Fi. Designed for rooms up to 100m², it features a 3-way design: a pure beryllium ‘M’-shaped tweeter, a 6.5” ‘W’ cone midrange, and four 8” ‘W’ bass woofers in push-push configuration. This combination delivers articulate, impactful bass, transparent midrange, and precise high frequencies, all with minimal distortion.

Each speaker houses 500W of Class AB amplification (280W LF, 130W MF, 90W HF) and Naim Pulse Platform electronics, providing unrivalled dynamics and accuracy. Wireless Ultra Wideband (UWB) technology allows lossless, high-resolution streaming at 96kHz/24-bit, with optional 192kHz/24-bit wired connectivity. ADAPT personal tuning further customizes sound to the listener and room, while multiroom support and compatibility with AirPlay 2, Google Cast, UPnP™, and major streaming services extend flexibility.

Built with high-density polymer, structural reinforcement, and luxury ivory felt panels, the Diva Mezza Utopia balances acoustics, durability, and elegance. At 127 x 46 x 62 cm and 192 lbs per speaker, it’s a commanding presence—but one engineered for precise, neutral performance. Control is intuitive via the Focal & Naim app, remote control, or voice assistant, with multiple input options including HDMI eARC, optical, RCA, USB, and speaker link connections.

A CES Showcase for Retailers and Audiophiles

Experiencing Focal’s CES showcase underscored the brand’s ability to offer products for both ends of the high-fidelity spectrum. The Mu-so Hekla, priced at $3,600 USD, brings immersive home cinema to a wide audience in a compact, elegant package. The Diva Mezza Utopia, at $69,000 USD, represents ultimate audiophile ambition—wireless, powerful, and uncompromising in fidelity. Both demonstrate Focal and Naim’s philosophy: audio experiences that are precise, immersive, and emotionally engaging.

For retailers, distributors, and manufacturers, these products are more than technology—they are compelling opportunities to offer customers premium, differentiated audio solutions that combine design, innovation, and performance. Focal’s CES presence confirms that the future of home audio is both high-fidelity and effortlessly enjoyable.
