    Focal Clear headphones

    I have a question regarding pad rolling on the Clear, but it also applies to headphones in general: The Clear is great with a lot of music I listen to, but with some genres / albums / tracks, I miss a bit of bass and the mids and highs are a bit too forward. As I am not a fan of EQing, I...

    Gruezi HBen generelly speaking, I think you are right and it is important that you have stated this. But regarding my case, just wanted to make some things clear: I am no expert of course, but no completely noob either (I am not saying that you implied this though). Before starting this...

    First of all I wanted to report that I am a proud owner of the Focal Clear now (thanks again for the recommendations), but I have one further question and didn't want to open a new thread. Would the Clear benefit from a more advanced DAC? As I stated in OP, I own the Chord Mojo and Fostex...

    Those high-ends unfortunately are way out of my league too. Was thinking of maybe spending like 4 or 5k (combined with amp) for a mid-range one like STAX SR-007MK2. I have read of their lack of bass, too, which makes me wonder if they would suit my preferences. Never heard any electrostatix so...

Just today I found and copped one of the first original Japan pressings of DSOTM (which is supposed to sound the best to...

    Thank you very much, that helps! The LCD-2C is out then. Problem is, there are no shops with a decent collection of headphones near me, which would be closed at the moment due to coronavirus anyway. The Arya costs 1.800 € and the Clear as b-stock 1.200 €. As I don't have 3.000 € lying around...

    Thank you for your recommendations. Was looking at the Focal Clear anyway and could get it as b-stock for 1.200 €. I may be really giving them a listen, but the LCD-2C and Arya sound interesting too. I'm worried about the weight of the LCD-2C though and heard the Audeze's are not that...
