Hey guys, I have the Focal Elear which I bought in the year it has been released and I am still very happy with it. I originally tested it with Naim CD player and Chord Hugo TT and it sounded great in all areas, treble, mids, bass, soundstage, dynamics. I was happy with all aspects important to...

Dear Focal Elear experts, I have the Focal Elear, bought it in the year of release and I am still happy with it. I would like to ask you something regarding pairing with electronics because here I am struggling. Of course, what I need to do is to go to a good shop and simply test it. But I...

I read somewhere that the Clear would sound a bit bass-light and less dynamic with the ADI2-DAC. Is that true? What would you say? Best regards Dirk

Hello, when I read here in this very very good and interesting and very helpful forum :) I am always surprised what differences between headphones people are hearing :). I do not have the Clear, I have the Elear from the first production year and luckily still do not have any technical issues...

When I read that the HD 800s sound more resolving I wonder if this is really true or if this impression is only their because it has that treble spike pronouncing a certain area of the upper frequency range, like some Beyerdynamic HPs have. I also listend to the HD800s with Hugo TT and it took...

Dear Warrenk, just read that you are using a rme unit. Which one you are using? The rme DAC fs? I am asking because I read about it and being interested in it. Wanted the skim through the 500 pages here and the rme thread. I do not have the Clear but the Elear which I currently mainly use...

yes, I would agree to it. When I was looking for a new headphone I checked from Beyerdynamic the T1, 1990, 1970 and the cheaper 990. Personally I would have preferred the 1990 from the Beyer's. The T1 is very bright, like the Sennheiser HD800(s) but has more punch than the famous Sennheiser. But...

With respect to 1990 I answered to your question in the Clear thread already :). Few additions: when I was searching for a new headphone, after being disappointed from the 1770, which I bought from amazon, I compared a lot of headphones, all of them with Chord Hugo TT1 and Naim CD-Player. I also...

I only compared to 1990, with Chord HugoTT1 and Naim CD-Player. With this set-up the soundstage of the Clear was clearly wider but strangely I read posts where people claiming that it was the other way round. I read posts where people sold the Cler/Elear and bought a 1990. I intensively compared...

Well, I do not have a lot experience as well and have "only" the Elear, but my Elear sounds wonderful when plugged into Hugo TT, Marantz DAC, my old Acer Notebook and even my Samsung Galaxy but it sounds as it would be broken across the frequency range when plugged into Naim Uniti Star/Nova and...
