    AirPods Max

    For what its worth, I'll throw in my two cents. I've had the APM for a few weeks. In a word: Brilliant I have what I consider to be golden ears. I have a splendid $30,000 speaker rig (Audio Note amp & speakers fed by Auralic Vega G2). I have a pair of Focal Utopias and ÆON 2 Closed that I have...

    AirPods Max

    I have to say that the APM are, for me at least, the perfect blend of design, quality and convenience. So much so, that the Utopias are official on the market...

    Chord 2Go & 2Yu Wired/Wireless Network streamer and S/PDIF adaptor - Official thread

    Calling this a review is misleading at best. I saw that statement and stopped reading. Drivel.

    AURALiC owners unite!

    Thanks for your thoughts. I'm curious to hear whether the headphones output is any good or just there for convenience.

    AEON, MrSpeakers' New Closed Back Planar Magnetic Headphone

    Sell your 2Qute and Mojo (which I did) and buy the Hugo 2? Perfect work setup with my AEON C.

    Hey, just got my mom a pair of Nighthawk Carbons. Any recommendation for relatively inexpensive 15ft cable?

    Focal Utopia General Discussion

    I just bought Lazuli Reference cables for my Hugo2→Utopia combo. I have to say that I am nervous spending that kind of money on cables. Anyone using this particular combo?

    Chord Electronics - Hugo 2 - The Official Thread

    I'll weigh in, only because I own the Hugo 2 and have recently bought a few things based on Vlad's glowing recommendations...only to be confused why anyone with ears would turn to him for buying advice, but that's me. I've learned my lesson with Vlad. I will start by saying that I echo some of...

    AEON, MrSpeakers' New Closed Back Planar Magnetic Headphone

    I really hate to call the AFCs forgiving, but I honestly can't think of another word. There are songs, which I happen to love, that I can't listen to on my Utopias without wincing. They just reveal too much, which means for some recordings, a lot of crap. The same songs on my AFCs sound great on...

    Focal Utopia General Discussion

    Hey dude! Nice to meet you on familiar turf. My few interactions on reddit always end up going in unexpected, sometimes confrontational directions. I just assumed that's where it was headed, so I ignored your last post. Does my explanation make more sense?

    AEON, MrSpeakers' New Closed Back Planar Magnetic Headphone

    I posted the following thoughts on the Utopia thread, but thought it might be of interest/value to those perusing the AFC thread, so here it is... Some guy tried to start a debate with me on reddit yesterday when I asserted that while I believe my Utopias are the better headphone, the AFC have...

    Focal Utopia General Discussion

    Some guy tried to start a debate with me on reddit yesterday when I asserted that while I believe my Utopias are the better headphone, the AFC have fewer "strings" attached, which allow me to enjoy them just a little bit more than the Utopias. I wasn't trying to take anything away from the...
