Flax Evo 6.5" component with flax woofer and inverted tweeter
Focal PS 165 FE Flax Evo Series delivers premium engineering with flax fiber woofer cones and an aluminum/magnesium inverted-dome tweeter. The 6.5-inch component set includes dual crossovers for precise 2-way or bi-amped integration, and the 4-ohm impedance is suited to a range of aftermarket amplifiers. The flax woofer design provides a light, rigid structure for controlled bass and fast transient response, while the inverted dome tweeter contributes to wide, airy highs with improved dispersion. This kit is aimed at serious enthusiasts who want a refined, stage-like sound in the car, with strong midrange presence and articulate high frequencies. Availability at Crutchfield in 2025 confirms ongoing stock for premium upgrades, though it sits at a higher price point reflecting its flax technology and performance heritage.
