Uncompromising Audio, Fully Wireless, Zero Disruptions
Focal’s mastery of the aural arts stems from its French traditions, spotlighting an intersection of form and function that undergirds a fundamental belief that the highest quality of musical listening is as much a question of situational context as it is technological prowess. Innovation has defined Focal’s decades-long history, with this hallmark of audio engineering being their first wireless headphones with active noise canceling, uncompromising in fidelity: Bathys MG.

French finesse, Focal fidelity
From car audio and home theaters to yachts and high art, Focal has seamlessly integrated high-fidelity audio with elegant aesthetics. The Bathys MG headphones continue this trend of stylized engineering with their microfiber and genuine leather headband and earpads, delivering unrivaled comfort. Innovative construction includes the use of magnesium at critical points to ensure an enduring design that is robust, lightweight, and travel-friendly. Moreover, the 49-foot Bluetooth range makes for excellent use of its 5.1 Multipoint capabilities, allowing you to connect to multiple devices simultaneously. Additional ergonomic designs include side-mounted buttons for navigating different listening modes, keeping ports out of the way for charging or wired listening. Plus, the Focal flame logo is backlit to indicate use to yourself and others, cleverly masked as a design flourish.
Audio clarity in both directions
With the Bathys MG headphones, you get two optimized, active noise-canceling modes, alongside a transparency mode, allowing you to maintain an ideal equilibrium with your environment. Focal’s complimentary app gives you even greater control over your sonic indulgences, allowing you to fine-tune your sound controls, access equalizer settings, and more. Patented speaker driver technology ensures crystalline clarity with your audio, supporting SBC, AAC, aptXTM Adaptive, and aptXTM codecs.

Listen at your leisure
Unlike most wireless headphones, Focal pulls no punches with the functionality of the Bathys MG headphones: when they say 30 hours of active noise canceling over wireless playback, they mean it. Of course, this can be extended to 35 hours when using the 3.5mm jack for its wired mode, and 42 hours with USB DAC. The USB-C port accommodates a fast-charging mode, netting you five hours of listening time in just 15 minutes of charging. Plus, Bathys headphones come with a sturdy carrying case exclusive to this colorway, promising wide-spectrum, ultra-low-distortion, and high-fidelity audio that can be safely and easily stored for travel.
