It is generally 2 years with the retailer in Australia. To be exact, there is no defined end date for high valued item. Not sure if Focal will be honouring the warranty if the 'rumours' are true. Also Utopia 2022's clearance price was $3,499 AUD but appears to be have been increased to $3,999.

True, Focal/A2A has been very aggressive with pricing to clear in the past. I bought my first Focal Clear during an Easter sale few years ago. But this time, it is a rare exception. They appear to be clearing out the brand for good so I thought it is rare opportunity to own a high-end pair of...

Yeah I noticed it is already sold out now. I also have IEMs for when I need something low key but headphones are still more comfortable. Do you apply only on the top headband? I figured it is not wise to apply on the cups since residue may get stuck in between the stainless steel. Is this the...

So glad I finally pulled the trigger on a pair of Stellia. I tried it 2 years ago but couldn't swallow the price. That is until Addicted to Audio in Australia did a fire sale on them this week. Got them for $1155 USD including taxes and delivered ($1799 AUD) - basically over 60% off. The Utopia...

I have something similar too but it only happens with Apple Music so I think its app related. There is a split second jitter when it switches to Lossless presumably from buffering.

Yeah sometimes it is better to just aim for one TOTL and be done with it rather than to buy multiple midfis and be stuck in the never ending blackhole of cash. However, I understand not everybody wants to go all in too quickly. After all this process is also part of the hobby. My experience in...

I am so happy that I pulled the trigger on the U12Ts. It is going to complement my Nios. I can definitely understand why some would prefer U4s now. But man, this is how TOTL iems sound like? I am believer now. I still want to explore headphones but these 2 pair will keep me happy for some time now.

Alright, I'll do that. Thanks.

Hey guys, I would appreciate some guidance on how to close a sale listing if the item was sold outside of Headfi. As I cannot indicate the item was sold because the person does not exist on Headfi, should I use the 'withdraw' option instead? However if I do this, does that mean I won't have a...

I heard a lot about the RS6 and AMP13 too. Am wondering if I should just get the 5K for my 64 Audio when I am at work or one of the 2 DAPs but using them as DAC/AMP. Seems overkill to me but I am curious about the sounds.

Congrats on the trade! Would you say the Qudelix 5K is a good pairing for the U12T? How did you find the bass quantity with the various Apex modules? I see you're on the MX module now.

Thanks for the recommendation. However isn't the Trio featuring a bright tuning? I am quite sensitive to the highs. For example I found IE 600 a little hot on the treble.
