    Freedom of Movement and Superb Performance

    Sphear Wireless in-ear headphone is the wireless evolution of Focal Audio's Sphear S. Sphear Wireless massively increases freedom of movement while heightening emotions with superb performance. It delivers precise sound, characterized by excellent treble handling, a realistic bass, and plenty of dynamics.

    Sphear Wireless boasts an innovative spherical design, which provides unrivalled comfort for hours of undisturbed listening. And although this headphone may be wireless, it will definitely meet all your connected listening needs thanks, to its aptX-compatible Bluetooth capability that lets you enjoy quality sound wherever and whenever you want.

    Precise, High Quality Sound

    As the wireless evolution of the acclaimed Sphear S headphone, the Sphear Wireless delivers precise and beautiful sound. Its innovative mylar and polyurethane sandwich diaphragm driver reproduces a sound that is extremely faithful to your source material. The bass-reflex system is explosive, reproducing a controlled and realistic bass.

    Praise for the Original Sphear

    "Focal’s first foray into the in-ear headphones market is off to a smashing start," notes England's What Hi-fi? magazine , which honored the original Sphear with a top rating of Five Stars. "That full-bodied sound and excellent design have won us over."

    "The Focal Sphear is a lightweight, comfortable in-ear headphone that stays in your ears and sounds impressive for the price, with full bass and pleasantly crisp treble," reports David Carnoy and Steve Guttenberg, CNET.com, November 6, 2105.

    "Rivals with two-way balanced armatures at the price of Sphear just don’t sound as good as Sphear," says Alan Sircom, HiFi+ magazine, October 30, 2015. "Most importantly, Sphear sounds enjoyable… and that’s what music is supposed to be about after all."

    A Choice of Two Listening Modes

    The Sphear Wireless gives you two listening equalization modes to choose from. You can select Natural mode, which is true to the original artistic work. Or select the Loudness mode, which lets you adjust to noisier settings or is a good option when listening at very low volumes.

    Comfort and Sound Insulation

    Sphear Wireless is faithful to the original Sphear S design, with an ergonomic spherical shape that facilitates long listening sessions with zero discomfort. With their innovative shape, the ear-buds are small, discreet, and comfortable. Both silicone and memory foam are included. Both types are soft and provide effective insulation against external noise. A carrying case is included.

    Four Finishes to Choose From

    In addition to the timeless black finish model, Sphear Wireless is also available in blue, olive, and purple. These soft and expressive finishes add an extra touch of modernity to the look.

    Praise for the Original Sphear

    Five Stars - What Hi-fi? Magazine

    "Focal’s first foray into the in-ear headphones market is off to a smashing start… That full-bodied sound and excellent design have won us over."

    - What Hi-fi? magazine


    "What I like most about Focal’s Sphear is it’s an ‘honest’ product. It’s keenly priced – if it were twice the price, it would go up against two-way designs with balanced armatures and more far-reaching treble. But rivals with two-way balanced armatures at the price of Sphear just don’t sound as good as Sphear. Bass boost aside, Sphear’s few sins are those of omission rather than commission, and that’s a rare gem at this price, whether from headphones, earphones, or loudspeakers. But most importantly, Sphere sounds enjoyable… and that’s what music is supposed to be about after all."

    - Alan Sircom, HiFi+ magazine, October 3, 215


    "The Focal Sphear is a lightweight, comfortable in-ear headphone that stays in your ears and sounds impressive for the price, with full bass and pleasantly crisp treble. There's an inline one-button remote and microphone for cell phone use and a carry case is included."
