Deep, Precise Bass
ES 165 KX3E is an in-car audio kit consisting of two 6 1/2” (165mm) woofers and two 3” (80mm) midranges that cover a wide frequency spectrum, from a rich, dynamic midrange to deep, precise bass. The speaker drivers are fitted with Focal’s iconic K2 cone in aramid fiber, an exclusive, performance focused cone for deep, powerful and perfectly defined sound. For perfect reproduction of the treble and midrange, the kit includes Focal’s FRAK tweeters, made from aluminum/magnesium and with an exclusive ‘M’-shaped profile. They deliver ultra-realistic, crystal-clear sound. Coupled with bi-amplifiable audiophile crossovers and angled brackets, the tweeters will fit seamlessly into the passenger compartment, for perfect in-car sound immersion.

K2 Sandwich Cone
The aramid fiber cone inherits all of Focal’s unique know-how. Composed of an ultralight foam core, sandwiched between a thin layer of aramid fiber and a layer of fiberglass, it combines 3 key factors when it comes to acoustics: rigidity, lightness and damping, for sound that is as precise and dynamic as it can get.
TMD® Surround
The speaker drivers benefit from TMD (Tuned Mass Damper) technology, a patented innovation. This surround has a special profile, designed to better control the effect of resonance and reduce the distortion associated with deformations of the cone. The midranges are perfectly defined and very realistic.
FRAK Tweeter
The ES 165 KX2E and ES 165 KX3E kits are equipped with Focal's ‘M’-shaped FRAK tweeter. A revolution in Car Audio, it combines aluminum and magnesium for good frequency lowering and superb damping. Its lightness helps it shine in the high treble.
More Linearity and Precision
The progressive spider on the K2 Power speaker drivers is built around a progressive section to reproduce all the impact of the bass and increase the linearity, precision and dynamics of the sound.
Increased SPL
The Radial VC cooling system for the speaker driver coil expels hot air from the coil towards the bottom of the motor through 6 holes. This improves control over the coil temperature, limiting the effects of heat compression and improving reliability. This improves the dynamics of the speaker driver and generates a powerful sound.
Optimized Crossovers
All the components used for the K2 Power crossovers have been specially selected and optimized to better control the effects of heat dissipation. These components are essential for managing the various channels and the soundstage reliably and efficiently.
