Interesting - where did you hear this?? I thought Focal were going to leave the headphone market.

Get off those pain meds mate and onto THC/CBD - best thing I ever did. I found big pharma meds to have too many side effects. I wish you well and a speedy recovery.

Got a pair of Fostex TR-X00 Ebony's back in 2019 for metal - listening to them today and they still hold up - very bloody well. Melodic and Black. RME ADI 2 and Jotunheim 2.

For how much??

I was once quoted 450.00 AUD for a pair of pads for the Radiance - I sold my Radiance!! The prices that Focal charge for their OEM pads are outrageous and ridiculous - they charge this price because no 3rd party pads sound the same. I have kept my Clear MG Pro as it came with a spare set of...

Clear MG, Fostex TRX-00, Tygr 300R and the Beyerdynamic DT770 80Ohm. Sold my Focal Radiance.

It's just a feeling I have and could be wrong.

I don't think Focal will be releasing a new headphone anytime soon - my prediction is never.

Audiophile forums in general if you ask me.

Waaay too late mate - this has been happening in this industry for some time now and it's not just the manufacturers who are at fault either. Sites like this and others would have us believe that these prices are reasonable and you must also add a 3k cable to it as well to enhance the sound of...

IMHO The Jotunheim 2 is the pick for the MG - with the RME ADI-2 FS it is endgame for me.

Well my battery was completely gone as in no lights when charging so I was going to buy a replacement battery but just out of curiosity I plugged in the supplied quick charger and nothing. I left it connected and came back an hour later it had started to charge to my surprise. Not only that but...

The distributor here was selling the Celestee @ $599 AUD - that's $382.00 USD - why is the North America distributor dragging the chain on the discounts. At least our guy said screw it - out they go at cost. I'd be waiting on further discounts if anybody here is going to buy Focal in North America.

I'm not Robinson Crusoe with regard to being pissed off at Focal. Not to mention those here who paid full retail only to see them go for half of that and even less on some models not long after effectively trashing the brand here in Oz. At one stage it was only 250 more for the Radiance...

Are there any new Focal headphones on the horizon or is this the end of Focal headphones?? If not please change your cheap crappy headband mechanism as I know your markups after witnessing the fire sale here in Australia.

Just a hunch but I bet my balls I'm 100% on the money knowing Focal.

Sorry mate but no. Besides, I'm going out on a limb here and say that Focal will not be releasing a new headphone anytime soon if ever. Read into that what you will.

I am.

I don't think Headphones.com got any exclusivity from Focal; https://addictedtoaudio.com.au/collections/focal-naim-clearance-sale-2023/products/focal-clear-open-back-headphones Radiance also still available...

In what looks like a very bad breakup between the Australian distributor and reseller of Focal and Naim there has been a fire sale of sorts here in Australia with prices of Focal headphones being just ridiculous thus trashing the brand here in Australia and ruining any resale value for those who...

I had my MG's up for sale recently to "upgrade" till it dawned on me that there was no logical reason as I had my endgame cans. Driving them with a RME ADI DAC plus Jot 2. A satisfying feeling it is and I got them for 40% off RRP here in AU.

Actually the headphone amp ain't too shabby. I'm driving Focal and Fostex Headphones. The IEM jack is very handy indeed. Drives my AKT8IE MK II's beautifully. I do have a Jot 2 attached to at as well but it wasn't needed.
