This is the best sounding record I've heard on the Radiance. Clean vocals combined with great dynamics and tight bass. Doesn't hurt that there isn't a bad track from start to finish.

Addicted to Audio, the same place that is doing the Focal firesale right now.

I'll say buying the HD800 for $1300aud in 2013 is up there too. 10 years late and it still works perfectly outside of a few pad changes and still regarded as well as it was back then. I've bought and sold quite a few other headphones but that has stayed.

Also got the Radiance at $699AUD, hard to beat that.

Ending up just buying a Geekria one for $10 since it was available locally and it does the job. Covers the Bentley logo too which is a nice bonus.

Speaking of which, does anyone have a recommendation for a headband cover for these?

HD800 plus this is the perfect match:

These things really excel when it comes to low volume listening.

In this case it's because A2A are just gettung rid of what they have and no longer stocking Focal products.

Also noticed the Radiance has jumped up in price at A2A since I bought it, it's back up to $1000AUD. Looks like it's scaling based on how many they have left. Interestingly the Clear and Bathys haven't moved from their original price yet.

Had these for almost a month now and they've been almost a perfect complement to my HD800 which is what I was initially looking for. A high end pair of closed back cans with great bass response, "musical" timbre and forgiving when used on lower quality recordings. Based on that criteria I would...

Looks like the price for the Radiance just went up $100 at A2A.

Are these actually associated with Dune or just a nickname due to the colour scheme?

Watching Tron Legacy with the Focal Radiance.

Pretty sure this is only true for the console itself, they make a lot of money on accessories. Why would they bother selling a headset at a loss?

Interesting that their recently announced wireless headset for PS5 is using planar magnetic drivers and only priced at $150.

Yeah I paid $450usd for the Radiance from them which is a ridiculous price even with warranty concerns in the future.

1 year is pathetic for something as expensive as the Utopias.

With A2A not selling Focal anymore after this is there any concern with warranty claims later down the line? I see in the page it only says 1 year too which seems low.

Already fed up with the stock cable after 1 day so I ordered a custom one Sky Audio last night. It's up there with one of the best deals I've seen, but also goes to show much markup these things have retail price. $2000aud to $700aud within a few years when they're highly regarded review wise.

Thanks, is that this one? https://skyaudiocables.co.uk/products/2-x-3-5mm-headphone-cable-sleeved?variant=44712862023982

Sorry I meant the Hart Audio cable.

Any direct link to the ones you're using?

I'm definitely going to replace it but don't feel like spending much on a cable right now. How much was yours and are their any decent options for around $50?
