These are the focal utopia 2022 headphones. I started my journey with the sennheiser hd800s. They sounded great of course but I realized I wanted something that didn’t focus so much on one thing (soundstage) and wanted more bass. I tried the fostex th900x and they were great I loved them but I saw a pair of open box Stellia’s for 2k so I grabbed them instead. I’m more of a bass head so that’s why I switched to closed back and they were great but the open box had bad rattling when bass would kick in at low and high frequencies so I returned them and got my refund and just said f*cK it saved up a bit more and got these.

They are just great. Don’t know what to say. They are everything I wanted really and they are open back. Amazing sound, awesome meaty bass. The build quality is superb. These are endgame. I’m done. My search is finally over.

I’m using these with the RME ADI-2 DAC FS. it’s totally overkill but that’s how I am lmao. I have G.A.S. Gear acquisition syndrome.

I have proper macro pics taken on the a7rV and Sony GM 90mm macro that I uploading soon.

If anyone has any other questions about them let me know and I’ll try my best to a answer 🫡

I’ve been to SC a couple times. One time while getting an Uber, the driver was talking to us about politics and history and then all of a sudden he said “….your president” and we were like what is he talking about lmao. Then it clicked that he was saying Lincoln was our president and not his. That was a trip. Also I couldn’t believe they have the confederate flag on their license plates. I legit thought it was a joke plate or something but nope, it’s official. Also a shit ton of churches literally every mile
