Description
Designed for audiophiles who demand studio-grade sound on the move, the Focal BATHYS pairs premium wireless convenience with the brand's signature driver technology. Built in France, these over-ear ANC headphones deliver deep bass, smooth treble, and clear vocals through Focal's patented 40 mm Aluminium/Magnesium 'M'-shaped dome drivers — an alloy that increases dome rigidity while magnesium provides damping for reduced distortion.
Three listening modes — Silent, Soft, and Transparent — let users shape their noise-cancelling experience from full isolation to ambient awareness. The integrated USB-DAC mode supports PCM up to 24-bit/192 kHz for lossless wired playback, while Bluetooth 5.1 Multipoint handles AAC, aptX™, aptX™ Adaptive, and SBC wirelessly. Head-Fi reviewers describe the Bathys as delivering quality sound, reliable ANC, and wireless flexibility in a stylish package, and TechRadar has called them among the best-sounding wireless headphones available.
With 30 hours of battery life in Bluetooth + ANC mode, 15-minute quick charge delivering 5 additional hours, and a hard carrying case included, the BATHYS is engineered for long travel days and extended listening sessions.
