About the Focal Listen
Everyday headphones with a rich pedigree
Everyday headphones with a rich pedigree
The Focal Listen over-ear headphones feature a one-button in-line remote that controls most phones.
Few names ring out in the world of speakers like Focal. Both their car and home speakers earn high marks from our customers. And if you want to enjoy sound crafted by the French audio experts while you're at work, on the train, or going about your day, grab a pair of these Focal Listen headphones.
Chrome-plated, closed-back earcups help keep the bass tight and punchy. They house mylar and titanium drivers that are based on the ones in Focal's heavy-hitter Utopia and Elear headphones, for lively yet well-balanced sound.
Comfortable and stylish
Since these ‘phones are made for listening on the go, comfort is key. Their large earcups are padded with memory foam. A “soft touch” headband rests on your head, rather than clamping down on it. When you're wearing them, the solid Listen headphones seem smaller than they actually are. They feel sturdy and lightweight, and the streamlined industrial design combines curves and sharp angles for a striking look.
Remote/mic cable and other accessories
On the detachable cable, you'll find a one-button "universal" remote, which offers music and call controls for just about any smartphone, including Apple® and Android™ models. There's a built-in microphone further up the cable, helping ensure the caller on the other end can hear you. Focal also included a soft travel bag and airplane adapter for in-flight entertainment systems.
