Celestee combines modern design, refined finishes, and exceptional sound performance. Its exclusive Focal speakers guarantee excellent dynamics and precise sound reproduction. Acoustic treatment has been applied inside the earcups to avoid resonance and achieve uncompromising audio quality: the sound is accurate, pure, with impressive depth in the low end.
Celestee also stands out for the elegance of its Navy Blue and Soft Copper colors, offering unique and timeless hues. Moreover, the choice of premium materials, such as the semi-aniline leather covering the earpads, headband, and earcups, elevates the headphones into a truly beautiful object. Finally, the aluminum yoke features a perfectly controlled geometry to fit the head while providing optimal clamping force for even greater comfort.
With Celestee, reveal the intensity of every listening moment, at home and on the go.
Celestee is a closed-back, over-ear headphone that incorporates 40mm Aluminum/Magnesium full-range electrodynamic drivers. These drivers deliver exceptional dynamics and an extended linear frequency response up to 23 kHz. The sound reproduction is exceptionally precise. The inverted “M”-shaped domes of the speakers and their larger emissive surface area significantly enhance listening clarity.
As a headphone designed for home and portable use, Celestee can be used at home or on the go. Its low impedance (35 ohms) allows for uncompromising use with a portable audio player. The semi-aniline leather earpads combined with the earcup design contribute to both the comfort and isolation of the headphones.

It's difficult to find the slightest flaw in the Focal Celestee. This headphone deserves all the superlatives: it's beautiful, it's comfortable, the sound is magnificent... Apart from the soundstage that lacks a bit of width, I can hardly see what could hold back a purchase. The Celestee is capable of going anywhere with great French flair.

Well-balanced sound and a fairly wide spectrum... An improvement over the Focal Listen... But hot on the ears in summer...

Very good value for money.
Excellent Focal build quality.
Good sound quality that doesn’t reach the best HiFi headphones (very balanced but, in my view, lacking dynamism and precision), though at a much lower price as well.
Only downside: Focal could include a 4.4 mm unbalanced cable as standard. You can’t even buy this cable from Focal anymore...
