Focal

Celestee Headphones

£899

New for autumn 2021, Focal Celestee are high-end, over-ear and rather luxurious headphones that combine style and quality in equal measure.

Celestee are extremely comfortable with really striking design and aesthetics – we love the Navy Blue colour scheme. But they sacrifice nothing in performance, which is detailed and energetic with very good bass response. These are great all-rounders.

HIGH-END CLOSED-BACK HEADPHONES – REVEAL THE INTENSITY OF EVERY MOMENT
Celestee combines modern design, luxurious finishes and impressive sound performance. Their exclusive Focal speaker drivers guarantee excellent dynamics and high precision sound. The earcups have undergone acoustic treatment to restrict resonance and achieve uncompromising audio quality: the sound is clean, precise and with good bass extension.

COMFORT AND HIGH-GRADE MATERIALS
The headphones are further enhanced with the use of high quality materials and crafted with the semi-aniline leather on the earpads, headband and earcups. Celestee’s design is a masterclass in Focal’s craftsmanship: the earcups are covered in leather and overlaid with a stainless steel grille; the headband combines leather on the outside with microfiber on the inside whilst the earpads are in semi-aniline leather. The high-quality materials are a key feature of the product’s design, aesthetics and comfort. The aluminium yoke has controlled geometry to mould perfectly to the head while providing excellent grip and even greater comfort.

NAVY IS THE NEW BLACK
Navy Blue is a modern, timeless and sophisticated choice for Celestee. It is the first time this blue has made an appearance in the Focal collection. It blends harmoniously with the Soft Copper finish found on the rings of the earcups, internal grilles, logo and cable connections.

FOCAL SPEAKER DRIVERS
Celestee are closed-back circum-aural headphones that include 40mm aluminium/magnesium electrodynamic full-range speaker drivers. These deliver exceptional dynamics and a linear frequency response that extends to 23 kHz. The sound reproduction is incredibly precise. The ‘M’-shaped inverted dome speaker drivers and their larger emissive surface area vastly increases listening clarity.

SOUND INSULATION
Designed for use at home and on the go, Celestee are the ideal headphones for using around the house or when out and about. Their low impedance (35 Ohms) ensures uncompromising sound when used with a portable audio player. The semi-aniline leather earpads combined with the design of the earcups are big contributors to both the comfort and soundproofing of the headphones.

RUNNING-IN PERIOD
These headphones require a running-in period in order to operate at their best. They will run themselves in naturally after several hours of listening time. If you want to speed up the process, we recommend playing very bassy music through them for at least 24 hours at a relatively high volume. This will stabilise the speaker drivers and allow you to get the very best out of your headphones.
