Stocked with Focal's exclusive, French-manufactured Slatefiber woofer, the Focal 50 EVO provides an excellent presentation of dynamic range. You'll also notice that the speakers are quite balanced. You'll get the same sonic picture throughout your monitoring environment, not just in the sweetspot. And, the monitors have been engineered to give you the same frequency balance at any loudness.
This monitor is built to be used in a variety of ways. Mount it on a stand, in a traditional nearfield setup, or use the built-in insert to mount the speaker to a wall for immersive formats, such as Dolby Atmos.
Dedicated XLR, 1/4" TRS and RCA inputs are on hand, so you're covered for pretty much any professional or high-end consumer analog connection.
Adjust the low midrange or the high end to better suit your environment. You'll note a filter adjustable between 0 and 300 Hz (±6 dB), as well as a treble-centric one selectable between 4.5 and 22 kHz (±3 dB).

Q: 5. Frequency range and frequency response are...unpublished? I'd really appreciate info/ comment about these characteristics - what are the pros/cons, using the Roland CM-30 Cube as studio monitor(s)? Are they flat? & will I need a separate sub?
A: Unfortunately, the manufacturer does not list those specifications. The Roland CM-30 was designed with the traveling musician in mind, and not the studio engineer necessarily, though in a pinch, it can be used for monitoring in the studio. You would be better served with a pair of JBL LSR 305's nonetheless; B&H# JBLSR305. With the use of two monitors, one can have a better stereo image of a stereo mix. The use of a sub is optional and not necessary; though having one is good for reference.
