They are the result of 35 years of innovation, development and manufacturing of high-end speaker drivers and loudspeakers. Equipped with exclusive technology, they offer striking realism, neutrality, dynamics and clarity, for sound with unrivaled purity. Utopia are unique they are the world’s first audiophile headphones to be equipped with totally open-backed full-range speaker drivers with pure Beryllium ’M’-shaped domes. They meet all the requirements expected of high-end headphones due to their sophisticated and elegant design and to purposeful materiality, such as the carbon fibre yoke and true lambskin leather ear cushions.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eTHE PURITY OF SOUND AT ITS APOGEE\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eUtopia are equipped with totally open-backed full-range speaker drivers with pure Beryllium ‘M’-shaped domes. Once more, the engineers at Focal have pushed back the limits of acoustic innovation and have succeeded in providing a listening experience worthy of the best Focal loudspeakers. The result: a transducer with a frequency response ranging from 5Hz to more than 50kHz without any crossover or passive filtering! You’ll completely forget you are wearing these headphones, and the reproduction of the audio signal is of unrivaled purity.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eREMARKABLE DESIGN AND COMFORT\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eParticular attention has been paid to the design of Utopia, in terms of use, comfort and overall aesthetics. These audiophile headphones feature elegant, high-quality materials, and comfort has been greatly enhanced thanks to the mechanical design which has been optimized to the smallest detail: the constant bend of the headband, an even distribution of weight, the design of the yoke and the memory foam ear-pieces.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eACOUSTIC TRANSPARENCY AND EASY CUSTOMIZATION\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe cable supplied with Utopia was specifically selected for its capability to respect the original audio signal, such as its very low impedance (\u0026lt; 90 mΩ\/meter). It is totally symmetrical in order to offer extremely low crosstalk (\u0026lt; 70 picofarads). The shielding protects it from electromagnetic interference and allows for a longer cable (4 m\/13 ft.). Finally, the 9.5mm Lemo® connector and the 6.35mm Neutrik® stereo jack enable easy customization.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eREMARKABLE DESIGN AND COMFORT\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eParticular attention has been paid to the design of Utopia, in terms of use, comfort and overall aesthetics.

To address these shortcomings, Rupert and his team at Rupert Neve Designs have developed the RNHP.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBased on the headphone output circuit in the 5060 Centerpiece Desktop Mixer, the RNHP is a dedicated 24 V reference-quality headphone amplifier with specifically-calibrated +4 dBu balanced line, unbalanced RCA and 3.5 mm (1\/8”) inputs, housed in a rugged VESA-mountable steel chassis. With effortless, wide-open sonic performance and the ability to drive any pair of headphones without compromise, the RNHP allows you to perform, mix and enjoy your music with a new level of clarity.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDEDICATED VS INTEGRATED AMPLIFIERS\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eFor much equipment, the headphone output is an afterthought. Most products with integrated headphone amps have large feature sets, small footprints, and relatively low price points. This leads to comprised power and audio quality of the headphone amplifier itself, which can lead to a number of issues in real world usage such as low headroom, unreliable performance, and a lack of focus.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe RNHP was made to accomplish one simple purpose: making any headphones sound their best. As a dedicated design, the RNHP is tailored to deliver extremely high quality, powerful amplification, with precise calibration for any source input. This exceptional level of quality can be the difference that inspires an artist to give their best performance, lets an engineer make better choices in mic and placement, gives a mix engineer reliable translation of EQ and dynamics adjustments, or lets a music listener appreciate the full depth and detail of a recording.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eSPECIALLY-CALIBRATED INPUTS FOR ALL OF YOUR DEVICES\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn addition to being able to drive a wide variety of headphones without sacrificing performance, the RNHP is also capable of receiving a wide array of signals with its 3 inputs, calibrated for optimum level and impedance.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eHere are some common device examples: \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInput A: +4dBu Line (XLR or TRS) Devices\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eStudio Audio Interfaces (Line or Monitor Out) * Headphone Mixers (Line Output or HP Out)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eMixing Consoles (Line, Aux or Monitor Out) * Professional Turntable Mixers (Line or Monitor)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eProfessional Stereo Digital to Analog Converter\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eProfessional Cameras * Studio Monitor Controllers\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInput B: RCA Devices\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eCD \/ DVD Players * Stereo Tuners\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePreamplified Turntables * Prosumer Recording Devices \/ Cameras\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInput C: 3.5 mm (1\/8”) Stereo Devices\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eMobile Phones * Portable Music Players\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eComputers * DSLR Cameras\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eHandheld Recording Devices\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAny 3.5 mm headphone output\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003ch3\u003eVESA-MOUNTABLE DESIGN\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe RNHP is designed for mounting with any VESA 100 compatible mount. These may include pole mounts, wall mounts, table mounts, or articulating arm mounts. These mounts can help to ensure the RNHP is always in the perfect position.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eMULTIPLE-LINE FEED\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn some situations where you only have one set of outputs but need to simultaneously feed the RNHP and another device such as speakers, a second headphone amplifier, or a 2-track recorder, we recommend using splitter cables from the Left and Right line outputs to feed both devices from the same stereo pair.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003chr\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWaves NX Head Tracker and NX Virtual Mix Room\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Nx Head Tracker for Headphones is a small Bluetooth device that latches onto your headphones and tracks your head movements in order to augment the immersive 3D audio experience created by Nx technology.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUse the Nx Head Tracker along with the Nx 3D audio apps to experience the music, movies and games you love in 3D audio – on your computer, tablet or mobile device, using any set of headphones.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUse the Nx Head Tracker along with the Nx Virtual Mix Room plugin in order to recreate on headphones the ideal spatial acoustics of a high-end room, improving your headphone mixing and recording experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWaves Nx Virtual Mix Room lets you hear, on headphones, the same natural depth, natural reflections, and panoramic stereo image you would be hearing from speakers in an actual room.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWaves Nx turns your headphones into a more reliable mixing and monitoring tool by letting you hear everything with real-world dimension, rather than flat in your head. Insert the plugin on your master buss, and hear all the elements of your mix accurately laid out in space, just as you would in the sweet spot of a great-sounding professional mix room.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWaves Nx finally bridges the gap between monitoring on speakers and monitoring on headphones. By letting you hear the depth and stereo spread you would be hearing on external monitors, Nx gives you an accurate representation of how your headphone mix will translate to loudspeakers. By delivering the natural listening experience of a physical room, Waves Nx also makes the headphone experience more comfortable and ear-friendly over long periods of time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWant to mix for 5.1 or 5.0 surround on your regular stereo headphones?
