Another standout feature of Bathys is its elegant and timeless Black Silver colourway.
SPEAKER DRIVERS MANUFACTURED IN FRANCE
In terms of sound, the Aluminium/Magnesium ‘M’-shaped dome speaker drivers – made in France in our ateliers – give the headphones an audio quality that’s unrivalled in its category. Our speaker drivers, equipped with patented Focal technology, have been slightly revamped to adapt to the constraints of a portable set of headphones – they are now lighter with a smaller volume. The result is a clear, dynamic and very precise sound, while retaining a sound signature that is optimised for use on the move: a present, ever-controlled bass.
ADDITIONAL FEATURES
- A dedicated Focal & Naim application will enable access to an EQ that will adapt the sound to your musical preferences and other settings.
- Bathys incorporates Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa voice assistants to stay connected at all times. It is also compatible with Google Fast Pair for a faster, more intuitive connection!
- The headphones are supplied with a Jack cable and a USB-C® cable to serve frequent travellers who want to watch films on the plane. Their compact, rigid carrying case also means they can be taken anywhere!
