About this item
Styled in modern Deep Black, the Bathys Noise-Canceling Wireless Over-Ear Headphones from Focal continues their tradition of offering high-fidelity sound, now in a portable package. These compact headphones use 40mm aluminum-magnesium M-shaped dome drivers and proprietary Focal technology to deliver precise and dynamic wireless sound. When going wireless, you will enjoy your music in silence thanks to active noise cancellation. You can easily stay connected via hands-free calls that use Qualcomm Clear Voice Capture technology for crystal-clear conversations.
Three Noise Canceling Modes
Silent: Provides the most cancellation and is ideal for noisy environments and settings, such as when on a plane or subway
Soft: Cancellation is minimized for quieter environments and settings, such as when you're at home
Transparency: Cancellation is turned off and sounds are let back in so you can have conversations without removing your headphones
Two Wired Listening Options
While designed to be a wireless pair of headphones, you can connect the included 3.5mm audio cable and go wired if needed. You can even connect the included USB-C cable to utilize the built-in DAC and amplifier, which supports up to 24-bit/192 kHz high-resolution playback. Please note that both wired listening modes require battery power to power the active amplification circuit.
Refined Design
Matching the Bathys' high-quality sound is Focal's high-end construction, which uses a refined design and premium materials. The yokes showcase magnesium accents, while the aluminum headband is wrapped in real leather. The exterior of each earcup sports Focal's signature grille with their flame symbol emblazoned in the center. A white backlight can be turned on to add additional vibrance, or off to reduce any distraction to others.
Long Battery Life
On a full charge, the Bathys can provide over 30 hours of playback with Bluetooth and ANC enabled, 35 hours via the 3.5mm jack, and 42 hours in USB-DAC mode. A full charge takes only 90 minutes, but if you're in a rush, you can charge for just 15 minutes and enjoy an additional 5 hours of use.
Voice Control
Supporting both Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant, you can conveniently control your audio playback using voice commands.
Google Fast Pair
When paired with a Google Fast Pair-compatible mobile device, an on-screen pop-up lets you easily pair your headphones with just a tap.
