The honeycomb grills aren't just an aesthetic choice, though. The more open holes of the honeycomb pattern help the headphones to achieve a more open sound. The Utopia 2022 uses black and red double speaker grilles, and the pop of red is visible through the outer grilles. A new yin-yang pattern surrounds the center rings on the circum-aural ear cups to symbolize the intersection of craftsmanship and technology.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe carbon fiber yoke, made from forged, recycled carbon, is an elegant touch, helping to keep the headphones lightweight and distributing their weight evenly on the head. Because forged carbon is from scraps, the finished product has a marbled appearance, and each headphone will have a slightly different look. The genuine lambskin leather headband and perforated memory foam ear pads—also leather-bound—provide unparalleled comfort and softness with minimal clamping. Finally, exceptional high-end headphones merit top-of-the-range accessories: The new Utopia comes in faux-leather packaging with a black fabric thermoformed carrying case and two high-fidelity cables (10ft and 5ft \/ 3m and 1.5m with 4-point XLR connectors) for using the wired headphones at home with an amplifier or on the go with Lemo® connectors and a Jack adapter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"builder-column css-zy4j2t\"\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"builder-blocks builder-blocks-child css-h47494\" builder-type=\"blocks\" builder-parent-id=\"builder-bfd16969548c45d9846a45bfb1777bf6\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"builder-block builder-dd4a9be6744d4190823ae1c8a9ef3a29 builder-has-component css-hgfgng\" builder-id=\"builder-dd4a9be6744d4190823ae1c8a9ef3a29\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"builder-text css-1qggkls\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSame Driver, With Acoustic Enhancements\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"builder-block builder-3363bf9bfca243fa821608f3eb2e68ff builder-has-component css-hgfgng\" builder-id=\"builder-3363bf9bfca243fa821608f3eb2e68ff\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"builder-text css-1qggkls\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Focal Utopia 2022 Headphones use \u003cs\u003euses\u003c\/s\u003e the same dynamic 40mm loudspeaker with an M-shaped beryllium dome as its predecessor. This dynamic driver is fully open-backed and runs with no passive or active correction, with a frequency response from 5Hz to over 50kHz! The listening experience they deliver is strikingly real, precise and dynamic, with a soundstage that is both wide and deep. You can close your eyes and feel the musicians beside you. One thing that has been updated is the composition of the voice coil, which previously was 100% aluminum. Focal engineers opted for a new voice coil made up of 30% copper (to improve reliability) and 70% aluminum (to make it more lightweight). This alloy provides a rejuvenated sound signature, that lends even greater neutrality, with powerful bass and more mellow treble. What’s more, the grilles inside the ear cups are now M-shaped, following the curves of the speaker drivers, to give improved linearity and even more precision.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"builder-block builder-d68ea6d0188b409795a376e65df008d5 css-ur9nhf\" builder-id=\"builder-d68ea6d0188b409795a376e65df008d5\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cstyle data-emotion-css=\"44qkma\"\u003e\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"builder-block builder-287988cf9f6e4641b6b0ecd1d9303f61 builder-has-component css-44qkma\" builder-id=\"builder-287988cf9f6e4641b6b0ecd1d9303f61\"\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"builder-columns css-1840m1q\"\u003e\n\u003cstyle data-emotion-css=\"2keume\"\u003e\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"builder-column css-2keume\"\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"builder-blocks builder-blocks-child css-h47494\" builder-type=\"blocks\" builder-parent-id=\"builder-287988cf9f6e4641b6b0ecd1d9303f61\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"builder-block builder-9976ec50b12647949c11e129dcb1c73b builder-has-component css-hgfgng\" builder-id=\"builder-9976ec50b12647949c11e129dcb1c73b\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"builder-text css-1qggkls\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"builder-block builder-44fb13fffd9940c693fb90c85f56fae7 builder-has-component css-hgfgng\" builder-id=\"builder-44fb13fffd9940c693fb90c85f56fae7\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"builder-text css-1qggkls\"\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-end, open-back, audiophile headphones; for home use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFull-range speaker driver with pure Beryllium M-shaped dome: pure, dynamic and perfectly balanced sound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade in France in the Focal workshops\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesign that adapts to all head morphologies: optimum comfort\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePremium materials and sophisticated finishes: genuine leather, forged, recycled carbon, aluminum, etc.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cstyle data-emotion-css=\"bst442\"\u003e\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"builder-column css-bst442\"\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"builder-blocks builder-blocks-child css-h47494\" builder-type=\"blocks\" builder-parent-id=\"builder-287988cf9f6e4641b6b0ecd1d9303f61\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"builder-block builder-e90d22aa70664f04a2fb2f881b5aa884 builder-has-component css-hgfgng\" builder-id=\"builder-e90d22aa70664f04a2fb2f881b5aa884\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"builder-text css-1qggkls\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat's in the Box?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"builder-block builder-34249991b7e04ebbb195fb63e68b2d14 builder-has-component css-hgfgng\" builder-id=\"builder-34249991b7e04ebbb195fb63e68b2d14\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"builder-text css-1qggkls\"\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFocal Utopia 2022 Headphones\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCarrying Case\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1x 5 ft.
