To celebrate its 40th anniversary, Focal, the French manufacturer, has developed a collection of some special products. The final ‘wonder’ of this special and limited collection is the Symphonie 40th, which is a luxury case that comes complete with the high-end Made in France Utopia and Stellia headphones.

Also included with the Symphonie 40th are electronics for “a unique personal listening experience”.

Utopia and Stellia Headphones

Symphonie 40th is designed to offer two listening experiences. The range-topping Utopia open-back headphones can be used with the Focal Arche DAC & amplifier, both of which are made in France, and designed to offer the very best home audio listening experience. For listening on-the-go, the Stellia closed-back headphones, manufactured in Focal’s workshops, can be partnered with the Questyle QPM high-definition audio player.

Cables 

For total user convenience and to take full advantage of the products’ performance, specific cables for each listening type are included: a 4-pin balanced Litz XLR cable to connect the Utopia to the Arche, whilst a 03/16” (4.4mm) jack cable links the Stellia’s to the Questyle player. Two other cables are included, allowing users to connect the Utopia’s to the player (mini jack adapter) and the Stellia’s to the Arche (XLR cable). To keep the headphones safe, a carrying case is also included, so you can take your headphones with you wherever you go in total safety.

A Special And Limited Edition Case

These audiophile solutions and components nestle within the elegant and numbered case, available in a very limited edition: 40 years = only 40 cases available world-wide. Focal has adorned the box with Macassar ebony veneer, a noble variety of wood with a gleaming, satin finish. The inside of the case is lined with beige microfibre. The metal clasps and side handles round off this luxury piece.
