CES 2019 is as usual with a noisy whirlwind, as I wrote about the latest Atmos Soundbar and real wireless headphones, mainly with a measured sprint from the booth to the booth and a quick keystroke tap It was full. But every year at a time I go to Venetian to hear something special, and this year, Focal's 3000 dollar private jewel known as Stellia has stolen my heart.
Stellia headphones officially announced today as part of this year 's CanJam show to be held in New York is a luxurious audio mania of a French headphone maker wrapped in luxury even before turning volume head clockwise. Regarding the style, it is drawn largely from the predecessor of Focal such as Elegia and Utopia. This helps the can naturally match the shape of the head by the mechanical function of the same "yoke" contained in the headband.
Imagine improving your commuting with this kind of performance.
Inside Stellia's earpiece with dimples, a smooth foam pad is covered with smooth leather. On the other hand, the finish of cognac and mocha is elegant and unique like the picture. It is worth noting that the earpad is designed for separation as it is not used to seeing a pair of headphones here. A sound is heard on the go.
Even for accessories such as knitted cable with 3.5 mm jack and cable with XLR connection for dedicated headphone amplifier, everything that is suitable for carrying in Europe is complete. To be able to hold a briefing session for the next G8 summit.
Speaking of headphone amp, Stellia arrived at CanJam in parallel with Focal 's first ever DAC / amplifier. This was adopted by a Focal agency at a short audition.
As far as the sound is concerned, Stellia is clearly as expected, detailed and beautiful, but they are also spectacularly open, helping to dispel the idea that closed-back headphones are tightly closed I will. I could only listen to just a few tracks, but here there is sweetness instantaneously, a wonderfully clean resonance and a fast transient response mix together, giving impressive results.
Stellia is incredibly comfortable and at the same time has a quality of sturdy and luxurious make-up.
By keeping Stellia's listening experience closer back design more intimate while keeping the sound stage expanded and dynamically, both world best scenarios that I was dreaming of joining from the beginning It will be possible. It is incredibly comfortable with Stellia, and at the same time it does not hurt even with sturdy and luxurious shaping quality. I do not know if thousands of users are planning to use a pair of $ 3,000 headphones on the street, but this kind of performance will help you improve your commuting as an escape from the outside world please imagine.
Of course, at 3000 dollars, you can easily park your car in downtown instead of getting on a train, or buy a used car if you do not have it yet. Still, this year Stellia emerges and looks forward to (as always) the next thing from Focal.
Focal should immediately add Stellia for purchase on its website while headphones were not shown as live on that site at the time of publication. If you are in the New York area, you may just want to swing by CanJam and give them a try.
