ES 165 KX2E | 6.5″ (165mm) 2-Way Component Kit with FRAK Tweeter – Focal K2 Power Series
The Evolution of Power and Precision
The Focal ES 165 KX2E represents the next stage in the legendary K2 Power lineage — fusing cutting-edge acoustic technologies with Focal’s unmistakable design DNA.
Hand-crafted in France, this 6.5″ 2-way component kit delivers exceptional energy, detail, and tonal balance, combining the renowned K2 aramid fibre cone with Focal’s revolutionary FRAK tweeter for an uncompromising high-fidelity experience.
K2 Aramid Fibre Cone – Precision Meets Power
The heart of the system, Focal’s aramid fibre K2 cone, uses a tri-layer composite structure designed for rigidity, damping, and lightness.
This engineering excellence allows the ES 165 KX2E to reproduce midbass frequencies with stunning accuracy, delivering fast transients, deep extension, and a naturally dynamic sound signature.
Every note carries the energy and texture of a live performance — tight, controlled, and full of life.
FRAK Tweeter – Treble Reinvented
Borrowed from the flagship K2 Power M Series, the FRAK tweeter is a breakthrough in acoustic innovation.
Its aluminium/magnesium ‘M’-profile dome extends frequency response well beyond 40 kHz, achieving unmatched clarity, openness, and spatial detail.
The result is a soundstage that feels expansive and lifelike — where every nuance and harmonic breathes naturally.
Flexible mounting options (factory location, flush, or angled) make it suitable for a wide range of vehicles and custom installations.
Engineered for Linear, Dynamic Control
The ES 165 KX2E incorporates several Focal signature technologies to ensure ultimate fidelity:
-
TMD® (Tuned Mass Damper) surround – patented Focal innovation for lower distortion and smoother midrange reproduction.
-
Progressive-profile spider – enhances linear excursion and control at high volumes.
-
Vented voice-coil system – ensures effective cooling and consistent output.
-
Rigid aluminium chassis – maintains stability and reduces unwanted resonance.
Together, these elements deliver powerful, precise sound with superb control across the full dynamic range.
Audiophile Crossover for Absolute Tuning Flexibility
The included bi-amplifiable audiophile crossover features adjustable slopes (0 / +3 / –3 dB/oct), allowing you to fine-tune tonal balance and tweeter response to match your acoustic environment.
This versatility gives installers and enthusiasts total control over system character — from crystal-clear studio precision to rich, immersive warmth.
The Flagship of Fidelity
Combining Focal’s iconic K2 Power cone with the next-generation FRAK tweeter, the ES 165 KX2E redefines what’s possible from a 6.5″ component kit.
It’s more than an upgrade — it’s a transformation of your entire in-car sound experience.
