Frequently Asked Questions

The Focals offer a more refined and detailed sound, but the DT 770s have a more powerful low end and are more versatile for casual listening.
While the closed-back design offers good isolation, the weight and cable length might be cumbersome for extensive field work; shorter cables are recommended.
The acoustic sealing is quite good for a closed-back, minimizing sound leakage, but very loud volumes will still be audible to those nearby.
