The Focal Electra 1028 Be is a flagship three-way vented floorstanding speaker from Focal's Electra 1000 Be series, succeeding the 1027 Be model. It employs a dual Powerflow port system (front laminar port and rear port) for superior bass extension and dynamics, matching the renowned midrange-treble definition. Key drivers include a 1.1-inch (27mm) pure beryllium IAL inverted dome tweeter for extended response up to 40kHz, a 6.5-inch (16.5cm) 'W' composite sandwich midrange, and dual 6.5-inch (16.5cm) 'W' woofers. The 'W' cone design optimizes lightness, rigidity, and damping for precise frequency response. The tweeter features Infinite Acoustic Loading (IAL) for low resonant frequency and smooth crossover integration. Available finishes include Basalt, Champagne, and Slate Gray. This model is no longer manufactured, with remaining stock from close-out sales.
