Focal PS 130 V1 speakers are a two-way component set for a car audio system. Separately installed drivers, three tweeter crossover frequency options and an adjustable tweeter level allow the sound to be tailored to the vehicle interior. The Polyglass cone supports natural sound reproduction, while the phase plug improves sound dispersion.
Focal PS 130 V1 speakers are a two-way component speaker set designed for car audio systems. The tweeters offer three integration options, but the dimensions and mounting arrangements of the vehicle’s installation locations must be checked before purchase. An adjustable tweeter level helps tailor the sound to the chosen installation.
This component car speaker set is suitable for listeners who want control over more than speaker placement alone. Three crossover frequency options provide greater flexibility when matching the tweeters to the rest of the system. The final sound can be adjusted to suit the vehicle interior and the listening position.
Construction and materials
The low-frequency driver features an aluminium chassis, a chrome-plated magnet and a butyl surround. The butyl surround allows the cone to move, while the aluminium chassis provides a rigid foundation for the driver.
The Polyglass cone is designed to deliver a natural, uncoloured sound. A phase plug at its centre improves sound dispersion. This is particularly useful inside a car because the listener is not normally seated at an equal distance from both speakers.
High-frequency reproduction
The TNP tweeter has a smooth, clearly defined and minimally directional sound. Its low directivity helps maintain more consistent high-frequency perception from different seating positions.
Partial horn loading forms part of the tweeter’s design. Three mounting or integration methods are available, making it easier to match the tweeter position to the vehicle’s interior trim and the preferred listening direction.
Connections and crossovers
These are not coaxial speakers. The low-frequency drivers and tweeters are installed separately, while the crossovers divide the audio signal between them.
The separate crossover units make installation planning and access to the settings easier. When connecting the system, the circuits for the two frequency bands must remain separate. It is also important to maintain consistent polarity in both channels.
Sound adjustment and installation
Install the low-frequency drivers in the vehicle locations intended for them. For the tweeters, choose one of the three integration methods according to the interior trim and desired listening direction. Before securing them permanently, compare the possible positions from the driver’s seat, paying attention to vocal clarity and the balance between the left and right channels.
Change only one setting at a time. Begin with the tweeter level: select a lower setting if the high frequencies dominate, or a higher setting if they are lacking. This allows the level to be corrected without changing the selected mounting position.
Next, compare the three crossover frequency positions from the driver’s normal listening position. This setting changes the frequency range from which the tweeter begins to operate. Choose the option that provides the desired and most even transition between the low- and high-frequency drivers.

FAQ
What is this speaker set designed for?
It is designed for a car audio system in which the low-frequency drivers and tweeters are installed separately. This arrangement provides greater flexibility for speaker placement and sound adjustment.
How should the separate speakers be connected?
The audio signal must first be fed into the crossovers. They distribute the appropriate frequency ranges to the low-frequency drivers and tweeters. Maintain consistent polarity in both channels.
Which settings can be adjusted to suit the vehicle interior?
You can adjust the tweeter level, select one of three crossover frequencies and choose one of three tweeter integration methods. Compare both the settings and the possible positions from the driver’s normal listening position.
Are installation accessories included?
The available information does not confirm which installation accessories are included in the package. Before purchasing, check the package contents as well as the dimensions and mounting arrangements of the vehicle’s installation locations.
