Description

The Focal for Bentley Radiance high-end headphones are a special edition manufactured in France in honour of the prestigious partnership between FocalNaim Audio and the luxury car manufacturer Bentley Motors.

Their teams of engineers and designers have worked together to develop the Radiance headphones, selecting quality materials: full-grain leather, solid aluminium… An authentic, refined Bentley touch is added with Copper finishes and Diamond motifs.

FOCAL RADIANCE: DRIVERS

The Radiance headphones include the last generation of Focal full-range drivers. They were designed to operate in an enclosed volume, while ensuring exceptional dynamics, as well as accurate and low colouration sound reproduction.

Radiance’s drivers are a powerhouse of innovations. The copper coil is frameless and provides a dedicated 110-micron surround.

The membrane is an “M”-shaped inverted dome. This diaphragm, manufactured in the Focal factory of Saint-Étienne, is made of 40 mm aluminium/magnesium! This worldwide exclusive was patented by the brand.

FOCAL RADIANCE: HEADBAND

The aluminium headband of the Radiance headphones perfectly moulds to the head while providing excellent grip.

The 20 mm thick earpads and the headband are made of full-grain leather. The headband includes “Diamond” motifs on its lower part.

The materials used; leather and solid aluminium for the yoke, are all of outstanding quality.

FOCAL RADIANCE: EARCUPS

The Focal Radiance insulates perfectly from outside noise and the environment without the need to use active noise cancellation (and that’s a good thing!).

The earcups have undergone specific acoustic treatment to restrict resonance and achieve uncompromising audio quality.

FOCAL RADIANCE: CABLE AND ACCESSORIES

The 24 AWG OFC high-purity copper cable is 1.20 m long (portable applications oblige!). It’s completely detachable.

Regarding the earcups, one end is connected via two 3.5 mm mono jacks. On the other end, Focal chose a 3.5 mm stereo jack, but they provided a 6.33 mm stereo adapter as well.

The set is delivered inside a beautiful carrying case in Copper finish. Its solidity enables perfect protection of the headphones.

FOCAL RADIANCE: TESTING AND LISTENING

Like all headphones or Hi-Fi speakers, musicality depends on the source quality and the medium used.

Moreover, these headphones require a period of run-in before they can offer their full performance. This run-in happens naturally after several hours of listening. If you wish to speed up the process, we recommend you play music with lots of low frequencies for at least 24 hours at relatively high volume.

The Focal Celestee headphones are pretty easy to operate. Even with a music player, it achieves excellent sound level.

There are all the sound qualities of the Focal Celestee headphones: a precise and clear sound across the entire spectrum with wide and very spacious reproduction. Bass is deep, powerful but very nuanced and articulated as well.

The very good noise insulation allows the listener to be quickly immersed in music. The timbres are beautiful, precise and of outstanding richness.

Like usual, no aggressiveness is present in mid-range or treble. The balance is very nice.

The Focal Radiance Hi-Fi headphones are both efficient and magnificent! They're one of the best closed-back headphones we had the privilege to listen to. If you’re searching for high-end portable headphones with a refined finish, the Focal Radiance seems to be unrivalled.

Would recommend!
