The new Utopia is an open-back dynamic driver headphone. Most people won't notice it if they only took a passing glance because it looks mostly like its predecessor. However, they are tell-tale signs if you know where to look.
The yoke is recycled forged carbon fibre, so it has a distinctive marbled pattern. The grilles, both inside over the drivers and outside of the housing, are also different. The driver grille is now shaped like an M to follow the curve of the speaker driver - the first-generation Utopia has a flat grille. This, according to Focal, results in a more linear treble.
