Truth be told, I don't used closed-back headphones often. Versus open-backs, they typically compromise sound quality for conveniences, and if those conveniences are a priority for me -- well I'll just grab the even-more-convenient Bluetooth Bathys. But does Focal's new Azurys headphone change things? It's closed-back, but -- and I'll spoil this now -- it sounds even better than the Bathys. And that's not its only advantage...
