Creaky headband, Humdrum low frequency response, Lacklustre overall performance,
Focal is more than capable of making stunning pairs of headphones, but the Listen Wireless don't quite meet the company's usual high standards.They're not, overall, an especially bad pair of cans - but at their price, the lack of transparency, dynamism, a...

Vocal tracks have best potential, good sound isolation without active cancellation, comfortable to wear
Design feels plasticky, neutral profile ultimately lacks bass and sounds too thin and without drive, no Bluetooth or noise-cancellation
That's the long and the short of the Focal Listen. If you're looking for wired-only headphones that are comfortable and affordable then these cans tick both boxes.However, the sound profile is a little thin for our tastes, lacking in bass, which makes the...
Clear and balanced sound, Very comfy to wear, Good noise isolation, Killer battery life
We could've used a little more bass, No multipoint Bluetooth
Yes. For the balanced sound they provide, they are a good buy for the more discerning ear. That's especially true if you love genres like jazz, acoustic, and rock, which will be music to your ears when wearing them...

The Focal Listen Wireless has a sturdy design, fits comfortably and snugly, and sounds excellent for a Bluetooth headphone. It folds up to fit in an included neoprene case and comes with a cable for wired listening. It also works well for making calls
The sound is a tad bright, which can make some music sound harsh. Heavier than some competing models. Lacks active noise cancellation
Focal's Listen Wireless is well-built Bluetooth headphone with rich, refined sound imbued with a lot of presence -- perhaps too much for some people...

Balanced, audiophile sound, Good noise isolation, 20-hour battery life
No multipoint Bluetooth or ANC, Disappointing value, Fingerprint and dust magnet
The Focal Listen Wireless are an excellent sounding pair of wireless headphones but its lack of features and high price point make it difficult to recommend.For $299 (£220, about AU$374), there are better values out there and you'll have to be in love wit...
The Focal Listen offer wonderfully balanced sound and great noise isolation. They're made of plastic but that doesn't do much to detract from them feeling durable and premium, Focal did an amazing job with the Listens and I highly recommend them for those
One of the largest snags I hit while testing the Listens was when they got a little uncomfortable after long listening sessions with its rubber headband putting pressure on the top of my head. Clearly leather was the way to go here, Its remote is also pla
Overall, the Focal Listen offer a thoroughly enjoyable listening experience. I love their balance, build quality and understated design – they may not be as high resolution as the Pioneer SE-MHR5 and other headphones capable of High-Res Audio playback, bu...
Solid build, Rich bass, Smooth treble, Good amount of detail,
Need more punch and aggression, Not as comfortable as other headphones,
So if you're looking for a pair of on-the-go over-ear headphones, the Focal Listens are a smart choice.They're detailed, with a strong sound that can compete with the busy street, and their smoothness makes them well-suited for music streaming.While there...
The Focal Listen has a sturdy design and a comfortable and snug fit, and it sounds excellent for the price. Detachable cable includes an integrated one-button remote. The headphone folds up to fit in an included neoprene case
Headphone is a tad heavy, may fit a little too snugly for some folks, and may not have enough bass for some listeners
French company Focal's closed-back, over-ear headphone is designed for mobile use and delivers excellent sound for $250...
Excellent balanced audio, Good bass, without pushing too far, Great comfort around ears, Easy to pack along
A little bulky and weighted, Inline controls lack volume button
The lack of boosted bass in the Focal Listen is actually addition by subtraction. Some listeners will probably feel the lows don't pulsate enough, whereas others, especially audiophiles, will feel the balance is more in tune with what the artists intended...
