    I purchased the 2022 Utopia from Missha1981 and I'm completely satisfied.

    btw I've also listened to Cardas Clear cable on Utopia. Silver Dragon sounded much better. It seems like silver is a better match on Utopia than copper.

      There are five things: 1) Soundstage 2) Clarity 3) Resolution 4) Imaging 5) Bass   1) Soundstage: I always hoped Utopia's soundstage to be wider. The Complement 4 solves that. The most significant improvement.   2) Clarity: Feels clearer than before.   3) Resolution: Same as...

    I used Silver Dragon before. I can't justify the cost and wait time for the improvement, but I can say for sure that the Silver Complement 4 is better than Silver Dragon. I'm not returning to Silver Dragon :)

    Much respect to your passion for headphones. I think it's just a matter of where you're coming from. Compared to HD800S that I had, Utopia has plenty of bass for me.

    yea, more bass than HD800/s for sure

    and unlike HD800 and most open-back headphones, Utopia sounds as full and rich as closed-back headphones.

    I enjoy J-pop and EDM with Th-X00. The Utopia takes the listening experience to a different level. I'm sure you'll find Utopia appealing in these genres from intense clarity, dynamic, and texture.

    Right, and Utopia will sound more enjoyable in comparison.

    I should do that in the future. Thanks for the advice, I really appreciate it :)

    Maybe I need the HD800S back to appreciate Utopia better.

    I like the sound signature of Utopia. It's just that the headphones don't sound as dynamic and resolute as before.

    Now I'm contemplating whether to get the Black Dragon or not. Maybe the Silver Dragon is a mismatch? But this doesn't make sense, because Utopia sounded phonomenal with Silver Dragon as well. Recently I don't find the Utopia as hard hitting as before. I don't have that "instruments sounding so...

    I've had the Utopia for 3 weeks with approximately 150 hours of burn-in.

    Not a helpful review though. It doesn't have much insight.

    Focal Utopia General Discussion

    I've been having an issue with Utopia recently. Utopia doesn't sound as amazing as when I first got these headphones. It's probably because I became familiar with its sound and performance. I also sold the HD800S, so I don't have a decent headphone to compare with the Utopia. For these reasons...

    I'm waiting on my DHC Spore4. I wonder how it will compare with Moon Audio Silver Dragon.

    I see, so I assume Sennheiser gotta work hard to beat Utopia with their next flagship.

    btw if Orpheus sounds better than Utopia, it must sound damn good.

    Focal Elear and Utopia Review / Preview With Measurements - Head-Fi TV

    With two years of using HD800/s as main, I can say for sure that Utopia is in a different league. It's about time Sennheiser releases a new flagship. If HD800/s feels like headphones, Utopia feels more like earspeakers. I believe there should be a new term to categorize headphones like Utopia...
