The closed-back Focal Azurys and open-back Focal Hadenys bring Focal's flagship made-in-France engineering to a more affordable, more compact platform. We take a close look at the Azurys and Hadenys, including measurements and MDAQS.

Focal needs to make their earpads cheaper and more available

@EdTheNerd 3 ай бұрын

Really wish they kept the sprung earcups of their other models. Its a small thing but having their cups angled nicely every time you hang them up was a nice touch. Tiny gripe aside I'll be grabbing the Hadenys for sure.

OMG, so excited for these, I have the Clear MG and want these

Keep feeding the addiction. I currently have the Bathys, Celestee, Elear, Elegia, Clear OG and Radiance. Still plan on buying the Clear MG, MG Pro, Stellia and Utopia's. Had to take a break from the headphones to buy guitar equipment. Looks I'll be adding these to the list.

Always enjoy your first looks, Jude! My Focal Bathys and Clear MGs are my pairs of choice on the go and home. Very interesting that Focal is releasing these at an awesome price point. I guess they will compete primarily with the Sennheiser HD6xx line?

Based on price, I don't think that's an unfair assertion (what you said about the Sennheiser HD6XX line). That is, I think someone considering any of the Sennheiser HD6XX headphones should also audition these (especially the open-back Hadenys).

I’m actually loving the colour way and design language on both these headphones using the Bathys platform. The lighter weight of the headphones and smaller form factor of the carry case is a definite plus. My question now is: Where do the Hadenyz and Azurys fit in the Focal lineup? Are they supposed to replace older models or complement the existing ones?

@Q-BMS 4 ай бұрын

I assume compliment, fitting at lower price points than their current lineup.

Seems like a response to MM100/MM500 from Audeze. Also wow, Jude prefers the Bathys over the Lyric 2 and DCA E3 👀

@Maver1ck911, I do love the Bathys for what it is, but where did you pick up that I prefer the Bathys over the Lyric 2 and Dan Clark Audio E3?

@headfi was merely inference by omission. Seems your comment was not all inclusive 🫣

What's the point of the Azurys when you can get the Bathys at a very small price premium, apart from the Pro work you mentioned?

@residentzero 4 ай бұрын

He just said they sound better

@dbean5174 4 ай бұрын

Frequency Response and usability with other dacs and amps. Azurys measures more closely to a harman and audiophile like tuning compared to the slightly consumer-ish Bathys. Bathys is meant to be used with its dac mode and kinda ruins the dacs function if it’s used with another since you would be putting a dac on top of another.

@Vince96711 4 ай бұрын

Better tuning/sound in general.

@gwapster13 4 ай бұрын

Because they sound different maybe?

@halimj7 4 ай бұрын

I wish he did a comparison between the two. I imagine that the sound signature is bassier and warmer on the Bathys with less resolution and separation.

@ANiCKiN 4 ай бұрын

Had to return Bathys. They are way smaller than then Elegia.

Lovely set of headphones

Yea, give me something lightweight for the office and balanced setting. Hmmm. But audio-technica msr7b Sennheiser 620s Are interesting competitors for the office at cheaper prices.
