Focal Professional Headphones

FOCAL’S CORE EXPERTISE

The speaker driver has been given a 100% Mylar suspension, whereas the central dome is composed of a Mylar-titanium alloy to provide more rigidity and extended frequency response in the upper end of the spectrum. Thus, the moving part is extremely light, enabling the transducer to exceed 40kHz on a flat baffle. The reproduction of the bass and sub-bass registers also received a great deal of attention. The team of engineers managed to combine two factors which are hardly compatible: a tuning frequency which is as low as possible and extremely low distortion (0.3% at 1kHz – 100dB).

EAR CUSHIONS: THE IDEAL ACOUSTICS

The size of the ear cushions (height, width and depth) gives them a volume which makes it possible to achieve a great tonal balance. Microfiber provides a more linear bass response providing a better acoustic output, whereas the acoustic tissue, which is closer to the speaker driver, offers great absorption and linearity in the 3-9kHz register. The bass and lower mid-range sections benefit from remarkable tonal balance and excellent articulation: where compression and frequency response generally suffer on closed-back headphones.

FOR A FREQUENT AND INTENSIVE USE

Listen Professional is also equipped with a headband boasting a unique design to ensure comfort and durability. Its curve remains consistent, regardless of the shape or size of the user’s head. Combined with the layer of silicone underneath the headband, this ensures that the weight is spread out evenly over the head, preventing the user from feeling any pressure in certain areas, which can be very uncomfortable during long working sessions. The horizontal and vertical rotation of the ear cups operate thanks to one single part: a joint integrated into each one. The ear cups also feature a black structured covering, making them resistant to impacts and scratching.

    Great sounding, BUT...
    4 Stars
    Great sounding, BUT...
    These headphones can be quite uncomfortable even after a short period. I was able to jerry-rig a pad affixed to the top which immediately and completely fixed this, but know your own limits and whether you can see to the same task. As for the cushions on each side, they emit this pinkish dye latently. My pillow cases are slightly stained pink now after my hair transferred it. Immediately see to purchasing after-market cushions to avoid a similar fate. Or don't, maybe that won't be an issue. Pictured is a white napkin after having wiped the ear cushion.
