This is a buyer’s market for the Alpha 50 right now, and €150 looks like a strong deal for a working pair. New pricing landed around €500 for the pair in reviews, so this ask is well below normal used territory and should attract attention quickly if the speakers are healthy.
What makes it worth a look is the Alpha 50’s reputation for clean balance, clear mids, punchy bass for the size, and easy imaging—it’s a well-liked nearfield monitor that has long been treated as a sensible step up from budget desktop speakers. At this price, the main job is simply to confirm both units power up cleanly, play without hiss or distortion, and that the inputs and rear amp sections are behaving; if those check out, this is exactly the kind of used buy enthusiasts jump on.

Focal traces its roots to 1979 in Saint-Étienne, France, where engineer and hi-fi enthusiast Jacques Mahul founded the company in a small workshop within his father's precision engineering firm. Initially operating as JMlab, it began crafting bespoke speaker drivers, with early models like the DB13 earning acclaim for their compact yet dynamic bass performance. This heritage of acoustic innovation and French craftsmanship propelled Focal's evolution, marked by pivotal 1990s expansions under Gérard Chrétien's leadership, yielding iconic references such as the Vega and Grande Utopia loudspeakers that redefined audiophile standards.
The brand's core focus remains high-fidelity loudspeakers, where it excels through in-house driver design featuring breakthroughs like inverted-dome tweeters, Polyglass cones, flax diaphragms, and beryllium tweeters in its Utopia line. Focal has diversified into professional studio monitors, premium headphones, car audio systems, and select accessories, all emphasizing noble materials and meticulous engineering. While not delving into amplifiers, turntables, DACs, or cables, its speaker-centric portfolio spans home, mobile, and pro applications with unwavering commitment to purity of sound.
Positioned firmly in the high-end market, Focal commands respect as a world leader among discerning hi-fi buyers for its benchmark performance, international awards, and "Made in France" prestige. No longer a niche boutique, it blends heritage appeal with cutting-edge technology, attracting serious audiophiles who prioritize transparency, dynamics, and emotional depth over mass-market compromises.
