FOCAL Utopia 2022 Headphones

HI-FI OPEN-BACK HEADPHONES FOR THE HOME

Experience sensational listening quality at home with Utopia, the exceptional headphones made in France by Focal, and the fruit of over 40 years of sound innovation. Unveiled in 2016, it returns in 2022 with a reworked design and improvements to the sound for even more music-inspired emotion.

Its exclusive cutting-edge technology, such as full-range speaker drivers with pure Beryllium ‘M’-shaped dome, completely open at the back, offers a listening experience with striking realism, neutrality, dynamics, and transparency. Focal engineers have also developed a copper and aluminum voice coil for a revamped sound signature and incredible reliability.

The listening experience is enhanced by a sleek design and exceptional materials. Combining comfort and sophistication, Utopia is made from genuine leather, aluminum, forged recycled carbon, ‘honeycomb ’-design grilles, and Black Chrome-coloured rings – an array of details lending these French headphones a unique look and sound. Like the symbolic Yin and yang on the ear-cups, Utopia embodies beautiful design and high-performing sound in perfect harmony. More than just headphones, this is a sound icon.

Utopia are the ultimate Focal headphones. They are the brand's flagship product, combining the best of our technologies with assertive design, to enhance your listening experience. Their full-range, Beryllium, ‘M’-shaped speaker drivers are fully open-backed and run with no passive or active correction, from 5 Hz to over 50 kHz! The listening experience they deliver is authentic, precise, and dynamic, with a wide and deep soundstage: close your eyes and feel the musicians beside you. Combining comfort and aesthetics, Utopia delivers uncompromising design and conception. The forged, recycled carbon yokes are modern and sophisticated in style, whilst providing more lightness. The honeycomb grille and Black Chrome ring showcase subtle design details, like the Yin and yang on the outer case, the black and red double grille on the speaker driver, and more. So many elements that fiercely embody Utopia: the perfect balance between technology and design!
