Focal Clear headphones
Yes, sometimes I get barely audible cracking sound on my LCD-X right cup and it also goes away after I start playing music 🤔 the only headphone in my collection that does not have any issues is my 15 years old HD650 and I still love it a lot 😁- Ben86

Focal Clear headphones
I also own Clear OG for 3 years now. These are in my top favourite headphones along with HD650, LCD-X and Elegia.

XDUoo XD05PRO
Talking about ESS and CS dacs - it is very hard for me to hear difference in filters. Talking about AKM - I can hear a slightly noticeable, very subtle difference beetween filters, especially Slow Roll Off and Sharp Roll Off filters, my favourite AKM filter for all AKM dacs (4493, 4497, 4499) is...- Ben86

Focal Clear headphones
I'm looking to replace my old worn out Focal Clear OG pads with Dekoni pads. Which one would be a better choice: "Dekoni Elite Fenestrated Sheepskin" or "Dekoni Custom Stellia" pads? Any advice would be very helpful 👍- Ben86

Burson V7 Classic Pro and V7 Vivid Pro - Hi-Fi audiophile solid-state op-amps
It also depends on music genres that you're listening for the most. For vocal, jazz, blues, symphonic/melodic rock, some old tracks and similar music V7C all the way! But for some agressive modern hard rock/metal, fast pace electronic and similar music V7V will suit better.- Ben86
