About the Focal Listen Wireless
Premium Focal sound — without the wires
Premium Focal sound — without the wires
Focal has earned a lot of praise for their deluxe headphones, designed for at-home listening. But they've kept those of us who use headphones on the go in mind, too. The Listen Wireless headphones play music wirelessly from your phone via Bluetooth, and serve up well-balanced sound with a slight emphasis on the low-end.
These headphones house mylar and titanium drivers that are based on the ones inside Focal's heavy-hitter Utopia, Clear, and Elegia headphones. And the closed-back earcups help keep the bass tight and punchy.
Form-fitting design
These headphones are designed to stay put on your head, so that they don't fall off when you're listening on the go. Clamping force out of the box was bit much for my taste, but I know some people — like my wife — prefer a snug headphone fit. The good news is that the "soft touch" headband is flexible and durable enough that you can actually twist it. So I could stretch it out and loosen up the fit a little. Plus the memory foam earpads are thick and soft.

They offer the same acoustic characteristics of the wired version, including the closed-back design and excellent noise isolation. The Listen Wireless comes with a 4' audio cable to use if you can't go wireless, and a USB charging cable. The ear cups fold in to make them compact for traveling, and come with a padded Neoprene storage pouch.
Drivers: The Listen Wireless features large diaphragm (40mm) Electro-dynamic Mylar/Titanium transducers that hold their shape, delivering tight bass, balanced sound, and superb dynamic range.
Ear Cups: The circum-aural ear cups and headband are made with heat-sensitive memory foam to give you comfort for hours of listening. The outer ear cup covers feature a high-gloss black finish. The closed back design and 22mm thick ear pads provide excellent isolation from outside noise.

Bluetooth: The headphones are equipped with Bluetooth 4.1 with apt-X and SBC for high quality performance and reliability. Supported profiles include HSP, HFP, A2DP, and AVRCP. The wireless operating radius is up to 65 feet (20 meters) without obstacles, depending upon the Bluetooth device used.
Battery: The Listen Wireless headphones are powered by a 500mAh Lithium-polymer rechargeable battery. The battery charges in 3 hours, giving you up to 20 hours of constant use, or up to 240 hours in standby.
