Focal Say….
With its exclusive drivers, Stellia pushes the boundaries of acoustics. It offers uncompromising sound performance, for top-quality listening at home and on the move. This innovation is highlighted by the use of high-quality materials and refined aesthetics.
Stellia is equipped with exceptional speaker drivers – pure Beryllium M-dome – combined with innovative technologies, delivering remarkable sound dynamics for closed-back headphones. The reproduction of the tiniest sound nuances is assured, and vocals are strikingly realistic.
Every Stellia component is developed with excellence in mind. With its acoustic processing system, Stellia delivers extremely precise sound. Its unsupported coil, combined with the properties of beryllium, provides a moving element of incomparable lightness. The result is reproduction of the finest detail, unconditional respect for dynamics and uncompromising tonal balance. Stellia pushes back the acoustic limits of the best closed-back headphones, setting a new benchmark.
Like the full-grain leather and its two distinguished finishes (cognac and mocha), the design of the Stellia headphones is also a benchmark. It incorporates the headband and yoke mechanics developed for Utopia. The constant curvature between these two elements offers flawless comfort, whatever the size of the head or shape of the face. This comfort is further enhanced by the shape-memory ear pads, full-grain leather headband and solid aluminum yoke.
These headphones need a running-in period to reach full performance. This will happen naturally after several hours of listening. If you wish to accelerate the process, we recommend that you play them for at least 24 hours at a relatively high volume level, on tracks rich in low frequencies. This will stabilize the loudspeakers and enable you to enjoy your headphones to the full.
