Recently got the Focal Clear MG, the last Focal I had to buy other than Radiance. Yes I have issues, but have sold everything apart from Utopia.
Had the MG 10 days now. impressions are, these are my second favourite Focal, after the Utopia. I prefer them to Stellia.
I know people prefer the OG but I think the MG presentation is more enjoyable, they have more body, and I believe are slightly more detailed. They close that gap to Utopia/Stellia a bit. They're a big threat to Stellia imo, ofc it's closed back vs open so it's apples to oranges...
These are insanely good cans, and I do believe most people could stop at MG and be happy they're missing very little from the flagships of the world. I got mine for 520 on ebay and consider it daylight robbery. The are worlds better than their closed back equivalent, Celstee, imo.
Laid back go Focal? Man, Focals are some of the most in your face, demanding cans. There's a sharpness and edginess that just demands attention imo.
