Focal Listen Wireless Chic
Listen Wireless Chic is equipped with Bluetooth 4.1 wireless technology and are compatible with Bluetooth aptX. As well as going wireless you can also hook up using a traditional audio cable. Furthermore, the wired connection enables you to plug in to a DAC. In doing so, the headphones will then deliver all the power and scale worthy of a high-end hi-fi product.
The Focal Listen is already known for their comfort. Additionally, the ultra-flexible headband makes them light, reduces pressure on the head and increases durability. The memory foam ear cushions, made from fabric and leatherette, provide excellent isolation, a key feature of Listen Wireless Chic.
Chic on the go
The headphones fold which also makes them easy to use on the go and carry around. Also, the scratch-resistant non-conductive metallisation finish is durable for a long-lasting perfect finish.
The Listen Wireless Chic offer twenty hours of listening time after a charging time of less than three hours. The automatic standby feature means they can be left on for up to 240 hours between charges.
During Bluetooth use, the Listen Wireless Chic has a reception range of up to 15 metres, giving you complete freedom of movement around the source.
Chic control
They are equipped with a dual omnidirectional microphone system which utilises Clear Voice Capture software for improved voice clarity whilst talking, even in noisy environments. They also include NFC technology for easy connectivity to smartphones equipped with an NFC module.
The controls are located on the ear-pieces, making the Listen Wireless Chic even more ergonomic. They have been strategically positioned to enable users to control the functions effortlessly, quickly and easily and are grouped into three areas: the on/off and Bluetooth buttons in one area, music and call controls in another and a volume control. The controls are simple and intuitive and are controlled by short or long presses.
Additional features
Voice notifications and different LED colours indicate the status of the headphones, the battery level and pairing, etc.
Up to eight different devices can be stored in the memory of Listen Wireless Chic and two devices can be connected simultaneously. This means users can listen to music from a tablet and answer a call from a smartphone at the same time.
Listen Wireless Chic is supplied with a USB cable and an audio cable for wired use, or for when Bluetooth connectivity isn’t possible. A soft carry case allows users to transport the headphones around in complete safety.
Carry your music anywhere, in style and total freedom!
