Headphoneus Supremus
The VC is a really good closed-back headphone, but still. I presonally prefer the Focal Stellia, but I wouldn't mind owning both. The VC has a more colorful signature which is very enjoyable. I would not recommend either one unless you specifically want a closed-back.
Although I get that perspective, as open headphones have several advantages (soundstage, clarity, etc).. I would just also point out that the VCs (somewhat similar to the L3000s) have a more intimate sound and presence, especially in the lower region. If the Stellia is similar to the Utopia, then you'll also get some of that with them.. just mentioning from a general comparison to other headphones standpoint.
