Focal and Bentley Motors have collaborated on a new closed-back headphone to be called the Focal Radiance and priced at $1,290 USD. The Radiance is actually thanks to an automotive partnership between Naim and Bentley. If you haven't configured a new Bentley recently, premium audio systems by Naim are available. (Focal and Naim share the same ownership).
The Radiance has been described as a warmer version of the Focal Elegia with higher quality materials and the plush leather pads of the Focal Stellia. Comparisons to both Focal headphones are expected. Given Focal's quality and attention to detail, we don't expect this luxury collaboration to disappoint. Ultimately, what will matter to most is the sound, and we're still waiting to receive our shipment. See our Focal Radiance page for the latest ordering and stock status.
