Thanks... Sent Focal the same question earlier just to double check, but they haven´t replied.
Guess what headphone I just brought home 30 minutes ago?
Damn, even the carrying case is built like a tank. This is how you build high end headphones. Just burning them in right now, but couldn´t resist listening at the same time. They still sound a bit muted, but they´ll open up to sound just like the ones in the store.
By the way if anyone is worried about the ergonomics (most of the weight sits directly on top of your head), here is a modification I can see becoming quite popular: just attach one or two Sennheiser HD 650 headband paddings (~10 euros) with something that doesn´t damage the headphones. Problem fixed - no more hotspot. You can then also extend the headphones more which results in more clamp if that´s something you like (I do). I´ll post some pictures of this setup later.
