Focal 3 KM | 3″ (80 mm) Mid-Range Driver – K2 Power M Series
Performance Meets Precision in Compact Form
The 3 KM is a specialised 3-inch (80 mm) mid-range driver built for serious car audio systems that demand clarity and fidelity in tight installation spaces. As part of the K2 Power M series, it brings Focal’s premium acoustic technologies into a compact format
Why Use It?
If you’re building a custom high-fidelity car audio system, the 3 KM allows precise mid-range reproduction with high accuracy. Its compact size makes it suitable for limited spaces while maintaining premium acoustic performance. The use of the “M” profile cone ensures better dispersion and reduced installation depth — ideal for demanding installs.
Installation & System Considerations
-
Because this is a dedicated mid-range driver, you’ll need appropriate crossover filters (often active crossovers) to ensure proper integration with tweeters and woofers.
-
Its compact depth (~27 mm) allows for flush or near-flush mounting in constrained spaces.
-
Should be paired with other components from the K2 Power M line to maintain tonal match and performance (e.g., 6.5 KM woofer, FRAK tweeter).
-
Ensure your amplifier and system power levels align with the RMS/peak specs to avoid under- or over-driving.
Summary
The Focal 3 KM mid-range driver brings audiophile-grade mid-range clarity into a compact form, leveraging top-tier technologies like the K2 sandwich cone, TMD surround, and M-profile design. If you’re seeking to elevate your car audio build with precision and performance — this is a strong choice.
