Focal Theva Surround Speakers
The Focal Theva Surround Speakers uses a 6.5-inch Slatefiber bass/midrange driver and a 1-inch Aluminium/Magnesium TNF inverted dome tweeter in a sealed 2-way cabinet. As a result, it delivers clear effects, smooth channel movement, and strong tonal matching with other Focal Theva speakers.
At Rapallo, the Focal Theva Surround is the speaker we would use to complete a matching Theva home theatre system.
Surround speakers are often overlooked. However, they play a major role in how immersive a cinema system feels. They handle ambience, movement, background effects, and off-screen action. Therefore, using a proper matching surround speaker helps the whole system sound more convincing.
The Theva Surround is a wall-mount speaker, which makes it easier to place in living rooms and media rooms. It sits neatly on the wall and does not need speaker stands. Plus, the sealed cabinet makes placement more flexible than a rear-ported speaker.
We also like the tonal match. The Slatefiber driver and TNF tweeter are shared across the Theva range. As a result, effects move more naturally between the front, centre, and surround speakers.
For NZ customers building a 5.1, 5.1.2, 7.1, or 7.1.4 Theva cinema system, the Theva Surround is the right choice. It keeps the system cohesive, tidy, and genuinely immersive.

Dedicated Theva Surround Speaker
The Theva Surround is designed to complete a Focal Theva home cinema system. Therefore, it is the natural surround-channel match for Theva N°1, N°2, N°3, N°3-D, and Theva Centre speakers.
Wall-Mount Design
This speaker is made for wall mounting. As a result, it keeps the room tidy and avoids the need for rear speaker stands. It is ideal for side or rear surround placement.
2-Way Sealed Cabinet
The sealed cabinet makes placement easier. It also avoids rear-port clearance issues. So, the speaker can sit closer to the wall while still delivering clean surround performance.
Slatefiber Bass/Midrange Driver
The 6.5-inch Slatefiber bass/midrange driver gives the speaker clarity, body, and dynamic response. This helps surround effects sound more realistic and better connected to the front stage.
Aluminium/Magnesium TNF Tweeter
The 1-inch TNF inverted dome tweeter delivers clear and detailed high frequencies. Therefore, ambient effects, soundtrack cues, and movie details remain easy to hear.
Strong Tonal Matching
Because the Theva Surround uses the same core Focal technologies as the rest of the Theva range, it blends well in a full Theva cinema package. This helps create smooth movement between channels.
Compact On-Wall Profile
The slim cabinet is only around 10.7cm deep. So, it sits neatly against the wall without looking bulky.
Made in France
The Theva range is designed and made in France. This keeps the speaker closely tied to Focal’s acoustic engineering and manufacturing heritage.
