Focal 100 OD6 black

The Focal 100 OD6 embodies the pinnacle of French acoustic expertise adapted to outdoor environments. This speaker combines high-level sound performance with exceptional durability, offering an audiophile solution for soundscaping terraces, gardens, and outdoor commercial spaces.

A design tailored for the outdoors

The 100 OD6 features an elegant and discreet silhouette, designed to blend harmoniously into various outdoor settings. Its high-density polypropylene casing, treated with UV protection, ensures optimal protection of internal components against weather conditions. The aluminum grille, available in white or black, can be painted for seamless integration into your decor.

The compact dimensions of the speaker (224 × 256 × 319 mm with its bracket) make it easy to install in tight spaces, while its weight of 4.1 kg ensures optimal stability once mounted. Attention to detail is evident even in the Focal logo, which can rotate to match the speaker’s orientation.

Focal expertise dedicated to outdoor audio

Focal has adapted its flagship audiophile technologies to create an uncompromising outdoor speaker. The 100 OD6 features a 25 mm inverted aluminum dome tweeter, a signature of the brand, delivering wide and precise sound dispersion. The 165 mm midrange/woofer benefits from Polyglass treatment, combining the rigidity of glass with the lightness of polypropylene, for dynamic and detailed sound reproduction.

This two-way configuration allows the 100 OD6 to cover an extended frequency range, from 65 Hz to 23 kHz (±3 dB), with a low cut-off at 55 Hz. The crossover, set at 2800 Hz, ensures a smooth transition between registers, preserving the sound coherence that Focal is known for.

Sound performance suited for the outdoors

Despite the acoustic challenges of open environments, the 100 OD6 delivers a rich and balanced sound experience. Its sensitivity of 87 dB (2.83 V / 1 m) allows for comfortable listening levels, even in large spaces, without overburdening the amplification.

The nominal impedance of 8 ohms (with a minimum of 6.7 ohms) makes it compatible with a wide range of amplifiers. Focal recommends an amplification power between 20 and 120 watts, providing ample flexibility to suit different listening setups and space sizes.

Flexible installation and orientation

The reinforced and notched aluminum mounting bracket is a major asset of the 100 OD6. It allows the speaker to rotate 180 degrees, enabling precise positioning for optimal sound coverage. Whether mounted on a wall, ceiling, or beam, this flexibility proves invaluable for adapting to the architectural and acoustic constraints of each location.

The robust mounting system ensures long-term stability, even in the face of vibrations or harsh weather conditions. This installation versatility makes the 100 OD6 suitable for both residential terraces and outdoor commercial spaces.

Proven weather resistance

The 100 OD6’s IP66 certification demonstrates its ability to withstand the elements. The “6” for solid protection ensures total dust resistance, while the second “6” guarantees resistance to powerful water jets from all directions.

This exceptional durability allows the speaker to be installed in demanding environments: by the sea, near a pool, or in areas with significant temperature fluctuations. The UV-treated casing prevents discoloration and material degradation over years of sun exposure.

Versatile use cases

The versatility of the 100 OD6 makes it suitable for numerous scenarios:

• Soundscaping residential terraces and gardens for outdoor music evenings
• Audio equipment for restaurants and bars with outdoor spaces
• Ambient sound for outdoor pools and spas
• Sound systems for hotels and resorts
• Audio solutions for open commercial spaces (shopping centers, pedestrian zones)

In each of these contexts, the 100 OD6 offers a balance of sound quality, durability, and visual discretion.
