Lets see ive got: Utopia 2022, HE1000se, Stellia, Clear MG, HD660s2, HD6xx, HD58x, Bathys, ie 600 I haven't gone crazy with source chains. Everything runs through Singxer SA-1 with DX7 Pro as a DAC only.

I do not recommend buying from Adorama regardless of sale price. I received a used / open box Utopia 2022 from their July sale, even though the product page said it was new. It was a hastle to return and get my refund and required a bunch of calls to their customer service.

For the record I had already registered the utopia with focal and was given the 24 months warranty letter.

Shipped price 😀

Update: was offered a $50 "partial refund" to keep my unit. I'll likely return as I have a custom offer from another shop new in box for 3400

My adorama order was also open box / likely pre-owned. I called customer service on Thursday and they asked for asked for photos, then cited 2 business days to figure out how to respond lol. Suggest you do the same.

Adorama shipment came in today. Manufacturers box was unsealed? Hope it wasn't a returned unit. Otherwise the cans look pristine. Listened to "Thriller" and "Get Lucky". Looking forward to many more hours! For those who received their cans new, how is the clamp force? Mine are surprisingly...

Order shipped. Can't wait to enjoy a new set of cans!

The reddit post seems like BS to me. My order is in processing and credit card still shows a temporary auth. Will update if / when there is a shipping notification

This is the Harman target fyi

What's your source chain? Switching to a class A amp has this effect on all my cans

Focal Utopia 2020 version on sale at Adorama.com for $3399.00 https://www.adorama.com/foutopia2020.html

Does the btd 600 work with the S22 ultra? It's on the way and my primary use case is to get aptX adaptive with the Bathys to my phone. BTW the DAC mode works flawlessly with my phone. You just need to set the headphones to DAC mode before using it.

I was going for the lcd-4 as well. Sale page had a 404 for a full 10 minutes after the hour. Not a great customer experience

lcd-4 already sold out
