Focal makes some good headphones. No doubt about that. But $3000 for a closed-back? That’s gettin’ right up there isn’t it? Especially when you think that you can pick up a Focal Elegia for $300, or a Celestee for $600 (on the used market). The Stellia is good, but how does it compare to its brethren? Is it that much better?
Here’s some affiliate links to some of the accessories I mentioned in the video:
