“… the Focal Utopia certainly ranks overall as the finest dynamic headphone I’ve experienced to date. It is among the most comfortable, sonically neutral, and well-built headphones I’ve ever reviewed.”

— STEVEN STONE, THE ABSOLUTE SOUND

“The Utopia has an extraordinarily refined top end and a carefully detailed midrange that equals or beats that of any headphone or speaker I’ve heard. Bass is deep and unexaggerated.”

— MARK FLEISCHMANN, SOUND&VISION, JULY 2017

“The Focal Utopia is a sexy beast with rock-solid build quality; … and sound quality to die for. I love this headphone.”

— TYLL HERTSENS, INNER FIDELITY, AUGUST 2016
