Does the bass spill over into the mids at all? And how is the treble and bass extension?

The bass in spirit one S has a very deep extension. I never felt it bleeding into the mids. The mids are clear and treble is a little more than smooth.
Is the treble analytical? Is it fatiguing or bright?
I used to be a bass head before buying these headphones. After listening to these I should say I am a treble guy too. There are no peaks in the treble scale and they present smoothly. I have been playing these headphones with LG g2 and Viper4Android driver settings. I never heard my music so engaging on any other headphones I have owned (BOSE QC 15, Sony xba4 IP, sennheiser momentum, amperior). I stopped listening to mp3's and am collecting lossless audio after buying these headphones. They are so clear, that one of my friend after listening to them for 30 minutes said I am going to order one right away.
Just a small note... don't come to conclusion on these headphones listening to them on the first time. They need atleast 60 hours of burn in to properly settle down (in terms of music and comfort as well).
interested in how the new focal spirit one S sounds and feels
just got a pair of the old spirit ones, very good looking indeed without any gaudiness or being overly attention grabbing
Where did you bought them? Iam going crazy about finding a decent all around over ear headphone.... All the focals before this have small pads, i had and lover the sound of the momentums but the pads were too small resulting in bad fit and seal, mdr 1r the sound is not very good, they are mostly plastic and my ears touched the drivers a tiny bit.... This focals seem like a perfect match to my 6.5 cm ears (height)....
They are on the focals site for a long time but amazon never got them.... At least in europe...

From the looks of it the cavity for the ear is still tiny.
Could you measure the inside of the cups in mm please.
Hello Guys,
Tested my device for 3 days and I should say I love it (with few gripes).
Dimensions for the ear cups are
9.5cmx7.5cm (outer)
5.5cmx4.5cm (Inner)
I have them, two thumbs up for sound, 1 thumb up for comfort... are the pads not removable... who thought this was a good idea -_-
they dont suck but the pads def need to be softer if its going to only cover 3/4 of your ear and sit on 1/4.... clamping force is pretty uncomfortable i wish you could change the god damn pads... I would use some velour ones
