    Focal Clear headphones

    It happened! My 1000€ headphones' left driver tapped out. I happened a few weeks ago but I've been in denial until now. I know it has happened to a lot of you before. My warranty finished 6 months ago. What should I do?? Is there a chance I can fix it by myself if I open it up?

    Focal Clear headphones

    I have had no time for listening with my full equipment for a while, but the last few days I've had a few listening sessions. My eyes started watering up when listening to the new James Blake album with my Clears. Big love for these cans <3 :)

    Bass Cannons, Looking for some realistic recommendations

    I had a pair of Cascades for 4 months. Good quality and good isolation as well. I didn't like them because they ruined anything that wasn't EDM and Hip Hop. But they did that really well. I found them very focused on the mid and high bass. Maybe lacking in sub bass if that is your priority. If...

    Best classical recordings...ever!

    Can someone help me!? I'm looking for the very best versions of a piece. It's the Polonaise fantasie Op. 61 from Chopin. It's by far my favorite piece. I've listened to lots of different recordings, but something always seems to be missing. My favorite recording so far is by Sviatoslav Richter...

    Need advice for a home/ portable rig!

    They are very good headphones with a really nice slam. https://www.auriculares-hifi.com/foro/index.php?topic=13231.0 It's in Spanish but if you text him in english maybe he'll understand. In fact someone put an aeon closed back up for 400€ too. Different sounds so choose according to what style...

    Recommendations to advance from AudioQuest Nighthawks?

    I have tried The 3 older brothers of the Denon 2000. I really liked them. I would guess the D2000 keeps the same signature. That would be my choice but I’ve also tried the big fostex TH900. Beautiful sound with a lot but enjoyable bass. I don’t have any experience with audio-técnica so I can’t...

    Recommendations to advance from AudioQuest Nighthawks?

    Yeah. Probably look for something warm. It doesn't mean that it can't have good treble though. The sound of a headphone is a mixture of everything. I remember thinking the same as you so i thought that the campfire audio Cascades would be awesome, but boy was i wrong :') Way too much bass. I...

    Recommendations to advance from AudioQuest Nighthawks?

    It's a good question. There's no definition of what a warm sound is, but i'll give it a try. If a headphone has a lot of bass emphasis, it will sound like all the sounds come from a cozy room, and if it's cold (and analytical) it sounds like you are just listening to the intrument very clearly...

    Recommendations to advance from AudioQuest Nighthawks?

    My first headphone was a night owl, and after 6 months I sold them because I was curious to try other sounds. I swear, the sound signature of the owls is The one I’ve loved the most. i Haven’t found a headphone that’s as nice and intimate with recordings as those. unles you’re actually curious...

    Need advice for a home/ portable rig!

    Did you consider the elegias? It's a very dynamic headphone and not very planar like, but its such a joy to listen to, and the prices are going down. It's a little big to wear outside every day, and not that portable but personally I just love the sound. It's very sensitive so you can run it...

    Need advice for a home/ portable rig!

    Sounds to me like you're looking for the oppo pm-3. Portable planar. Their sound should be very good compared to their portability. I haven't tried them, since I went for the nightowl, and I would recommend them if they weren't too big for going around.

    Tidal Lossless Streaming

    Anyone has problems with opening tidal on windows 10? It happens quite often that the window doesn't open. I try to close the task on windows, and it has worked before but not all the time. Anyone has the same problem or know a solution?

    Focal Clear headphones

    While the A2O is a bit more relaxed and giving you everything behind a small veil, the clear just gives you the clear truth right in you face but with the best tonality in any high end headphone. The A2O is great to relax but the Clear is just amazing to listen to. also, this is a Clear thread...

    Topping A30 Headphone Amplifier

    I have the focal clear. Is there any reason to pick the A50 over the A30. It seems like the A50 has way more power than anyone ever need.

    Focal Clear headphones

    am I the only one who thinks the squeaking can get really annoying when using the clears for watching something? i use them A LOT for music, and I don’t notice it enough to really think about it, but now I’ve used them twice to watch series, and when it’s quiet, I keep hearing the headphones...

    Schiit Magni 3+ and Magni Heresy - Impressions Thread

    I have a doubt about the 3+ and heresy. I'm about to buy one of them to be able to listen to my turntable with my headphones. My normal amplifier is the Chord Mojo, and i can't bypass the DAC si i can't listen to my vinyls normally. My headphones are the Focal Clear. Will they do well together...

    Focal Clear headphones

    I normally use my Focal Clear with a Chord Mojo, which I'm very pleased with. The problem is that i have a turntable that i want to plug my headphones into. And you can't bypass the Mojo DAC and just use the amp. I'll need a seperate headphone amplifier to do that. Anyone has a good suggestion...

    Is "Burn-In" Real?

    So would you say that when we say that some headphones are more detailed than others, it's just subjective? That if you took a cheap headphone and an hd800, then you could not perceive the difference in the detail by measurements? I'm sure that just by looking at driver/voice coil material and...

    Is "Burn-In" Real?

    Thank you for the response. It makes sense. I've been thinking if it's possible with pure measurements to see it there's a change in detail. Do you know that and do you have any examples of that? I just imagine that measurement tests are to see the Frequency response.
