About the Focal XS Book® Music System
Slim speakers that fit on any desk
Slim speakers that fit on any desk
Focal's XS Book Music System fits on even the most space-challenged desks and brings your music to life with crystal-clear accuracy and involving dynamics. We're a big fan of Focal's "sound quality comes first" approach, not to mention their cool design aesthetic. These chic speakers are a perfect example: you get surprisingly big sound from a pair of speakers that look right at home next to today's slim laptops and monitors.
Impressive audio performance
Despite their tiny footprint and slim upright design, these speakers have the power to fill your medium-sized room with sound. They each feature a 4" Polyglass woofer and 3/4" aluminum dome tweeter to deliver detailed highs and surprisingly robust bass. Focal even points out that you can use the XS Book away from your desktop, too — like alongside your flat-panel TV for better sound from your movies and shows, or as a sweet-sounding bookshelf music system for playing tunes from your iPod® or smartphone.
A simple and quick set up
Setting up these speakers is simple and straightforward, and you'll be listening to music before you know it. The system comes with the cables you need to hook up your computer or other audio source of choice. Also, the power supply is housed inside the right speaker, so you don't have to worry about finding a place for a brick on your desk or on your floor.
