Flat Sound Signature

A Flat sound signature offers an accurate presentation of sounds without adding colour to your music. Simply put, this sound signature presents audio without boosting any frequencies. As a result, it’s the most natural-sounding signature and provides the closest reproduction of how a track was recorded and produced. Due to their accurate sound reproduction, flat sound signature headphones are preferred by Music professionals, Sound Engineers and used in professional studios for mixing and mastering music tracks and are also loved by audiophiles for immersive listening sessions. You can listen to Classical, Rock, Jazz, Blues, Folk & possibly every genre in music.

Ideal for Audiophiles

These headphones are designed for discerning music lovers. If you are someone who cares about audio quality "deeply," you'll want a pair of headphones like these.

You can expect them to present a refined listening experience. The audio quality exhibited by these headphones is a beautiful mix of musicality, technical brilliance and high precision.

These headphones deliver a spacious and open soundstage with utmost clarity and detail. Delve into pure sonic bliss with these headphones!

Closed-Back Design

Headphones with a Closed-Back design are completely sealed around the ear cup, allowing the sound to travel directly into your ears. This means that closed-back headphones block out outside noise, giving much better isolation, and minimising sound leakage to those around you.

Replaceable Cables

A pair of headphones with a replaceable cable has many benefits, and one of them is if the connecting cable has a problem, it doesn’t mean that you have to buy a new one. If the connecting cable gets pulled or damaged, you can replace it and keep using your good-old headphones or IEMs. This way, your headphones will be protected and will last longer. With the advancements in cable manufacturing, you now get a variety of replacement cables with various termination options, lengths and quality.

Needs Amplification

Headphones and IEMs require a certain level of power to sound their best and work at their full potential. When your headphones or IEMs are underpowered, they can sound thin or muffled.

Amplifiers are required to provide adequate power to your headphone or IEMs to perform at their best. Simply put, amplifiers allow a weak audio signal to be boosted to a powerful one.

To put it into perspective, devices such as your phones and laptops come with an amplifier, but they offer very limited output power. This output may not be sufficient to power headphones and IEMs to shine at their best. This is where a dedicated amplifier is required to deliver adequate power to hear your music in all its glory.

Focal Stellia is designed masterfully to look stunning. To add to it, these headphones pack a powerful punch in terms of audio quality. If you’re an audiophile who wants the best of the best and prefers a closed-back design, then these are the way to go.

Description

Focal has been known for producing pure acoustic sound for 40 years and the Stellia is one of them. An exceptional headphone, these are equipped with an ‘M’-shaped pure Beryllium dome and new surround, frameless 100% copper voice coil that ensures stunning dynamics for this closed-back headphone. The Stellia reveals the tiniest details and realistic audio reproduction.

The Focal Stellia produce the purest sound. Its 40mm electrodynamic speaker drivers offer a frequency range of 5Hz - 40kHz even at low volume levels. The Vents, EVA foam behind the speaker driver, absorb the high frequencies while the acoustic diffusers break up standing waves resulting in interference-free sound.

The high-resilience memory foam earpads on Stellia make it incredibly comfy. The headband's and Yoke's continuous curve ensures a perfect fit regardless of the size and shape of your ears. Cognac and mocha are the two finishes available for the Stellia. This headphone is incredibly stylish thanks to the full-grain leather headband.

The Stellia amazingly isolates unwanted outside sound as it has been created with a closed-back design. 50% of the earpads' height is designed to diffuse sound through non-perforated full-grain leather. The other 50% absorbs the audio signal through an acoustic cloth which covers the memory foam and produces the perfect sound isolation.

The Stellia uses technology developed exclusively by Focal in France. To ensure that every product is high-performance, it has to feature a 100% Focal design. This allows complete control over the design and quality control processes to guarantee high-quality loudspeakers, headphones and earphones that offer enduring value.

Sound

FREQUENCY GRAPH

CHEAT SHEET

Regions of the frequency spectrum

SUB BASS
(20Hz - 80 Hz)

The first section of the frequency spectrum is the sub-bass. Everything below 80Hz is sub-bass, so generally, you need a subwoofer or a good pair of headphones (open-back headphones, for example) to hear this region. This region comprises instruments like the Kick Drum and the Bass Guitar. You should be able to hear Sub-Bass if you’re listening on monitors or headphones. But if you’re listening on a laptop or a phone, there’s no way you will hear that.

MID BASS
(80 Hz - 300 kHz)

After the Sub-Bass region, we get into the region known as the Bass or Mid-Bass. This region consists of everything between 80 and 300 hertz. In this area, we’ve got instruments like bass guitar and the low end of a snare. Lots of the low-end vocals as well, because male vocals are going to have the fundamental below 200Hz in most cases.

LOWER MIDRANGE
(300 Hz - 1000 kHz)

Next, if you go from 300 Hz up to 1000 kHz, this is known as the Lower Midrange, and this is a crucial region for music because this is where you get a lot of buildup with guitars, vocals, and even the top-end of the bass guitar especially. Lower Midrange is an area guilty of adding mud to a mix and clarity in this region lifts a track exponentially.

UPPER MIDRANGE
(1 kHz - 6 kHz)

Human hearing focuses inherently on this frequency range. So it’s crucial to get this range right. This region consists of the main focus of the track (e.g. vocals) and synths. Be aware that this is also where you can start to get into harshness and aggressive tones.

TREBLE
(6 kHz - 10 kHz)

After the Upper Midrange, we’ve got the Treble region between 6kHz and 8 kHz, and this is where things start to get harsh. This region is where we have brittleness from instruments like the Hi-Hats and Cymbals. This is also a crucial range for clarity and aggression, especially for female vocals.

AIR
(10 kHz - 20 kHz)

At the end of the frequency spectrum, we get to the Air region or the Top End. This region consists of everything above 10 kHz. This is where we have air and this is where we get a sense of shine and sparkle in our music.

"The Stellia are closed-back in design, and their impedance has been reduced to 35 Ohms to make them friendly to portable audio sources."

"These are much more likely to be used on the move with portable music players and DACs, so attention has been given to making them easier to drive ."

"You might have experienced the feeling of sitting in a high-end luxury car and being overwhelmed with a sense of luxury and craftsmanship. It’s a similar."

"These sound absolutely fantastic. Their wide-open soundstage and detailed, accurate sound treatment means they make any genre sound brilliant."

"The copper-and-cognac colored headphones boast real leather and premium components – as well as the love-it-or-hate it aesthetics audio freaks have come to associate with the iconic French brand."

"While I raved about the level of packaging quality for a mainstream-priced headphone like the Cleer Flow, the Stellia is in another league."

" If you’re an audiophile who really wants the best of the best and prefer a closed-back design, then these are the way to go. It is an absolute joy — but, of course, they’re not for everyone."

"The Focal Stellia closed-back headphones cost a small fortune but they are the best dynamic closed-back headphones I’ve heard to date. The build quality of these headphones is exceptional."

The best closed-back. Period!

Queen Stellia is so absolutely good-looking, it will rock your world! It's not just a pretty face, however. The sound quality is phenomenal: the bass is outstanding and is perfectly textured; the dynamic beryllium driver is capable of brutal slam and punch when called for; vocals, surprisingly, are extremely good; the treble region is slightly subdued compared to its bass and mids though. Stellia is a somewhat warmer and bassier version of the Utopia, which many consider the best headphone in the world. Stellia is certainly more fun to listen to. Though a closed-back, its soundstage is better than the Utopia's. For genres such as EDM, rock, trance, R&B and pop, this could be end-game, if affordability is not an issue. Note that you might want to get some fancier cables for the headphones: the stock ones just don't cut it imo. Packaging is luxurious; the unboxing experience has a sense of occasion. Stellia is very easy to drive, but scales well with better amplification and electronics. Delivery was very prompt. I take this opportunity to thank the headphonezone team, particularly Samiksha, for patiently bearing with my insistent questions and demands on her time. Cheers!
