Can this headphone use a balanced cable even though it's only connected on one side?

Nope. I ordered a custom cable from Norne for my Hadenys and Lensys. Trevor checked and unfortunately they can only do 3.5mm TRS to 3.5mm TRS single ended / single sided (no breakout of course).

Small price to pay for such great headphones.

Hello everyone! I have the occasion to buy a used - very good condition - Focal Clear OG, at more or less the same price of a new pair of Hadenys.

Sadly these days I do not have time to go and try both. Before the Clear OG goes, is there someone that tried both that can give me a good description of the differences between the two?

Yeah I guess it's not a deal breaker. I was just looking at a used set of these on CAM. Get either those or a set of HD490 Pro.

I'm in an internal struggle here. Should I go for either the Azurys/Hadenys, or go for the Celestee since it's about the same price as the Hadenys? For comparison the only Focal headphones I have is the Elegia, and I don't particularly like how "far" away they sound on my head. It doesn't seem intimate enough for my liking.
