Styled in a cognac and mocha finish, the Focal Stellia are over-ear, closed-back headphones designed to provide audiophiles, musicians, producers, and music enthusiasts with a nuanced, richly detailed, high-fidelity monitoring solution and a luxuriously comfortable wearing experience. What's more, the headphone features low-acoustic-load electrodynamic drivers that can be easily powered from a wide variety of devices—making them well suited to studio, home, and travel use.

The Stellia's M-shaped Beryllium-dome drivers are specifically engineered to deliver outstanding sound in a user-friendly, closed-back design that can be enjoyed in a wide variety of listening environments. The rigidity of the material offers exceptionally low distortion, while its ultra-light weight allows the drivers to move extremely rapidly, allowing them to accurately reproduce high frequencies up to 40 kHz. In addition, the dome's damping characteristics are markedly better than comparable titanium drivers, reducing resonances for sonically accurate results with outstanding dynamics, even in the challengingly small acoustic spaces available in closed-back earcups.

On-the-Go Audiophile Sound    Low Impedance for Phone or Mobile Device    40mm M-Shaped Pure Beryllium Dome Driver    5 Hz to 40 kHz Frequency Response    All-Day Comfort, Sound-Isolating Earcups    3.5mm and 4-Pin XLR Cables Included

  • The Stellia uses the advanced headband and yoke features originally developed for the Utopia headphones to provide a comfortable fit, regardless of the shape and size of the listener's face and head.
  • The leather-upholstered earpads use high-resilience memory foam for additional comfort and isolation from outside sound.

  • The M-shaped pure-Beryllium dome, frameless 100% copper voice coil, and specially-engineered earcups offer exceptional dynamics for closed-back headphones—resulting in super-accurate reproduction of the even the tiniest details and nuances at both high and low frequencies.
  • Integrated vents extend the speaker driver’s frequency response.
  • EVA foam positioned behind the speaker driver absorbs high frequencies.
  • Acoustic diffusers break up standing waves and eliminate acoustic interference.

  • With an impedance of only 32 ohms, Stellia can be used with a wide variety of equipment, ranging from high-end headphone amps and studio gear to popular consumer and mobile devices.
  • The closed-back, circumaural design helps to isolate the listener from outside sound while reducing the amount of sound leaking out for other people to hear.
  • For connection to common audio and mobile devices, a 4-foot, 24-AWG cable with oxygen-free copper wiring and a 3.5mm connector is included; a 3.5mm to 1/4" adapter is also included.
  • A 10' cable with a balanced 4-pin XLR connector is supplied for use with high-end headphone amplifiers and DAC units such as the Focal Arche.
  • A rigid travel case with a woven cognac and mocha shell is included.

This is one of the best headphones I have ever had the pleasure of owning. The refined sound signature is something that really agrees with my listening preference, practically no listening fatigue with them at all. At the same time, it's very involving with a wide and tall soundstage, rich textural mids and vocals and great bass and sub-bass extension, when called for. Perfect for any music genre really.

The design and comfort is absolutely top notch as well.

Note, if you prefer headphones with very strong highs/treble, these are not for you. The treble is accurate, yet laid back compared to other headphones which seem to need to shoot the treble in to your ears in the guise of being 'high resolution'.

Sony really stepped it up in all respects with their Z1R headphones. They're made in an in-house artisan department within Sony as well, not mass produced.

Comprehensive but not complete list of all headphones I own and have owned:

Sony MDR-Z1R
Audioquest Nighthawk
Shozy Zero earbuds
Bose QC-25
Apple Ear Pods (hate them for music, only use for phone calls/podcasts)

It is my pleasure to be the first person on B&H to write a review for such amazing product from SONY. I am using this headphone with the NW-WM1Z and the TA-TH1ES. The sound quality is out of this world good packed with more bass and treble than any other headphone that I have used. The bass and clear and deep. The mid is very clear and vibrant. The high is strong and clear, but it is sometimes too sharp (might be my music). If you are not sure how good this product is or if you want to try out this headphone, simply order it, if you don't like it, return as soon as possible. If you are in the market for a headphone for this price, this is the best choice PERIOD. B&HNW-WM1ZTA-TH1ES CMA0802

I've owned several other headphones including AKG K601, Sennheiser HD 598, Sony MDR-1A and Sony MDR-Z7, and in my opinion this pair of Z1R is the best so far for pop music, the sound is rich and well balanced, I just wanna listen to every song I have for once more. I really appreciate the use of the newly designed acoustic filter. However, I'm not happy with was the plastic housing, the metal housing used on the Z7 model seems to be much more durable and scratch-resisting. Also, the coating on the hanger is easy to wear off and get tin point too if you are not careful enough. These are well solved problems on the older Z7 and I don't know why Sony didn't adopt the merits from their old model.
