@Rob49 how are you enjoying the HD800S? Are you using balanced with stovk cable?

I didn't like them, such a terrible signature.

I purchased the 2020 Utopia to try an original utopia, as i found the 2022 version more for Rock, rap, pop and jazz. I can say i love these 2020 utopias a lot. I'm using balanced with stock cable as i patiently wait for the snail mail to deliver my defective lavri Grand for repair.

Hi, I am interested in purchasing it, but it is only available used from Japan. Can I change the menu to English?
They are available used in many places but I guess some retailers may have new stock still. Yes. You can change menu to English.

@gerelmx1986 i haven’t been using them for the last couple of weeks. I was at my partner’s last week & didn’t want the bulk of taking them, but i am going to try them out again this evening. Yes, I use the stock cable.

I know how much you’re liking the Utopia’s. I don’t know if it’s still on, but audio affair, where i now buy most of my headphones had a trade in & i was thinking about the Stellia’s, but it was just a brief thought & not enquired how the trade in works / applies ??

I’ve actually just checked on audio affair & it’s gone from a trade in, to an actual code off offer £600 off the Stellia’s & £1.000 off the Utopia 2022 edition. I always wanted the Stellia’s, of course, not to know there would be any offers. In fact it’s the first time I’ve seen them ever reduced.

Someone posted not long ago, that they were told there was going to be a new line of Focal headphones, perhaps there is & they want to clear stock ??

For sure will be interesting to hear the 2 side by side, have to burn in the ZM2 for a few hundred hours before that, not that the DMP will be replaced. One for desk the other for traveling and bedside.
