Focal Utopia headphones
 

Has anyone had a chance to audition the new Utopia headphones?

Very nice indeed!

Focal Utopia: This Is What It's Like to Listen to $4,000 Headphones | GQ

My Focal dealer/friend was at the house yesterday and mentioned these. It was the first I had heard of them. $3999? Beryllium drivers? Carbon Fiber yoke? Sign me up!! http://www.technobuffalo.com/wp-cont...utopia-13.jpeg

These look to be fantastic. Tyll's review of them was outstanding, calling them perhaps the world's best headphone. Not sure how I can get a pair to audition, but these are worth searching out.

I'm gonna have to get some, I won't be complete until I do.

:) The ideal amount of headphones to own is always N+1!

Seriously, though, if you do get them, I would love to hear your thoughts on them.

I sure will. I will probably get them and a pair HiFiman 1000's before the end of the year.

So far, the Abyss sound the best of the conventional headphones, but after about an hour of listening, it feels like I have a dumbbell on my head.........

It's 2 in 1.

1) listening of Music
2) training the muscles of neck. :D

These are magnificent HP's....to my ears the only competition is the wonderful Audeze LCD-4's

Don't overlook the Elears as well. They sound really really good too.
