Increasing 4k slightly (+~2dB) did seem to make a positive change after increasing the lower midrange.I think that region might be best left alone (although I did mess with it in the above EQ). To me the biggest benefit comes from adjusting the 1-4 kHz region (reduce 1-2 kHz and increase 4 kHz).

Thanks! I’ll give it a shot.I am still looking for the optimal EQ, but am attaching my current settings as a starting point. They are for a fixed band equalizer but you get the idea.

They have a good selection of colours, plugs, etc. The fabric is very soft and flexible.
This is my cable with my Focal Elears.

Thanks looks good are they non microfonic and flexible?
The Celestee stock cable are very bad shame when it cost 1k and they won`t give a decent cable.
I have two oidio cables which are very good quality but they are out of stock now for Focal.

I am interested to see how it changes the sound, when used with my Dekoni Sheepskin pads.

Non microphonic, very flexible, look and feel great. I've bought at least three cables from them, quick service and never a disappointment. I have Celeste's on order, I'm looking forward to picking my colors for the cables!

Thanks just looked at their site looks very good and good prices.Non microphonic, very flexible, look and feel great. I've bought at least three cables from them, quick service and never a disappointment. I have Celeste's on order, I'm looking forward to picking my colors for the cables!
I am also thinking of matching my Celestee color midnight blue. Have you demoed the Celestee before ordering?
I really like its clear detail sound maybe just a tad bit bass lean but they do have a good bass punch.

I couldn't resist and have them here right now. First impressions are disappoiting. I hoped the closed-in feeling is not as bad as crin said.
But, oh well, although I started with fresh ears and without comparing it was immediatlely noticeable and lackluster.

This is crazy. I have the Elegia here since 8 weeks. I know that I need to get used to a new headphone. I went through all of this several times. After 6 weeks I started to compare and the Eligia killed all my other cans, I am sure the Celestee will do similar, but most of you guys will never know, because you have zero patience. Sad for you.
