My first Focal product. I was in NYC a couple of months ago and went over to J&R with every intention of buying the Parrot Zik's.
Well I tried about 20 pair of headphones on in the store, and gave these a listen. Did not buy, but rather read up all over on review sites.
I bought them finally on Amazon around Thanksgiving time. I really do enjoy them!
They sound spectacular, fit very well on my head, and do not hurt my ears like others. I used them on a 10 hour flight and was very happy with the build quality, the noise canceling, and the overall comfort.
Really, they are a quality product for the price. Quite frankly; as much as I looked around, for the price and quality of product- I have yet to see a better set of cans at his price point.
Granted, I got them on Amazon (open box, like new) for 139.00.
I am not an audiofile (professional reviewer), but I like my music and know my "feel" for the sound. These won hands down.
My son who has the Seinheiser HD-25-II, and is a "snob" for his headphones
- even found these outstanding. I could see the jealousy in his eyes.
Give them a listen if you have an opportunity, I think you may be rather pleased.
Comes with a real nice hard zip case
excellent iphone cord (braided cloth covered) with an aluminum control mic
will take an additional straight cord- non mic, from any standard set. I had an extra beats cord from my wife's I use with them, as the cans have a jack to plug into (not permanent cable).
well, that went a little on now ..... sorry for the lengthy post.
tldr- love em.
