Product details
The Bathys is a wireless headphone featuring Bluetooth 5.1 and active noise cancellation. With two noise cancellation modes – a "Silent" mode for traveling in noisy environments and a "Soft" mode that enhances concentration – this technology provides perfect sound isolation. Additionally, a "Transparency" mode allows you to hear ambient sounds when needed.
The patented speakers with M-dome made of aluminum/magnesium are manufactured in the Focal workshops in France and deliver a detailed, dynamic, and pure high-fidelity sound. Furthermore, the integrated USB DAC mode offers a resolution of up to 24-bit, 192 kHz, ensuring unparalleled sound quality in mobile headphones.
In terms of design, the Bathys inherits the open and closed headphones from Focal. It features premium materials, an elegant black silver finish, and refined details such as the activatable, backlit flame in the center of the ear cup. The battery life of this mobile headphone exceeds 30 hours when using Bluetooth and active noise cancellation. It is the perfect companion for all your travels, whether by land or air.

Very good100/100

The Focal Bathys is anything but cheap - but worth the price. The workmanship and material quality are excellent, and the appearance is something different, especially the view of the ear cups from the outside. With very effective active noise cancellation, divided into three sensible modes, an EQ also for custom settings and a distinctly cultivated acoustics in neutral setting, the Bathys is suitable...
