Focal Alpha 50 Evo (single speaker - buy two)
An enthusiast French-made 5-inch powered reference monitor sold singly (buy two), built around Focal's Slatefiber woofer. Its 5-inch driver and small footprint suit desk and small-room near-field work. The spec is clear on the limit: with a 45 Hz-22 kHz response, sub-45 Hz low end calls for a subwoofer, so bass-heavy genres may want to add one.
