Offered is „Utopia 2022 - Excellent Condition - Warranty“ by Focal as second-hand device from the category „Wire bound Headphone“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 5440405006 ends on 02.01.2027 at 11:57 o'clock.
This is a buyer's market for this category: €2,850 is a strong deal, sitting below the €2,916 25th-percentile comparable and well under the €2,982 median. It is also €166 below the recent comparable range’s midpoint, making this unusually attractive for a clean 2022 example.
The Utopia remains a serious reference headphone, offering superb resolution, precise imaging, natural mids, and exceptionally controlled, punchy dynamics. The 2022 revision is relatively easy to drive at 80 ohms and works with a wider range of amplifiers than the original. Confirm that the hard case, both LEMO cables, and adapter are included; with those present and the stated good condition accurate, this is a compelling enthusiast buy rather than merely a fair listing.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Focal traces its roots to 1979 in Saint-Étienne, France, where engineer and hi-fi enthusiast Jacques Mahul founded the company in a small workshop within his father's precision engineering firm. Initially operating as JMlab, it began crafting bespoke speaker drivers, with early models like the DB13 earning acclaim for their compact yet dynamic bass performance. This heritage of acoustic innovation and French craftsmanship propelled Focal's evolution, marked by pivotal 1990s expansions under Gérard Chrétien's leadership, yielding iconic references such as the Vega and Grande Utopia loudspeakers that redefined audiophile standards.
The brand's core focus remains high-fidelity loudspeakers, where it excels through in-house driver design featuring breakthroughs like inverted-dome tweeters, Polyglass cones, flax diaphragms, and beryllium tweeters in its Utopia line. Focal has diversified into professional studio monitors, premium headphones, car audio systems, and select accessories, all emphasizing noble materials and meticulous engineering. While not delving into amplifiers, turntables, DACs, or cables, its speaker-centric portfolio spans home, mobile, and pro applications with unwavering commitment to purity of sound.
Positioned firmly in the high-end market, Focal commands respect as a world leader among discerning hi-fi buyers for its benchmark performance, international awards, and "Made in France" prestige. No longer a niche boutique, it blends heritage appeal with cutting-edge technology, attracting serious audiophiles who prioritize transparency, dynamics, and emotional depth over mass-market compromises.
