Looks like Focal dropped an updated version of the Alphas - looks like a slight waveguiding of the tweeter(?), a new woofer ("slatefiber" unwoven carbon fiber vs the polyglass on the original), and class D amps, plus a slightly different cab design. Less power than the original Alphas, though (55W+25W for the 65 Evo vs 70+35 on the 65)... 55w is little enough that I'd be worried about the amp running out of steam before the driver. Either way, looks interesting.Still no word on whether or not it's DSP or just a plain old analog active crossover UPDATE: Still analog active crossovers - I guess Focal's design philosophy is "design the drivers properly so we don't need to compensate in the electronics too much".
