How do Clear and Elegia compare, especially in the low end?
Both do very well in this area. Though, the bass is presented slightly different with the Elegia, due to its closed design and I don't mean that in a negative manner. However, with both headphones, the bass does very well with each. For now, I plan on keeping the Clear and the Elegia. Though, I'll find myself most likely reaching for the Clear for most of my mainstream listening. The Elegia will be used when I need to utilize a closed headphone for additional isolation in situations that require it.
[Edit]: I had some world music playing on the Clear headphones. I then flipped over to the Elegia and realized for that music, the layers of the bass were a bit more distinct. I didn't feel like I was sacrificing much soundstage when switching quickly to the Elegia. I've read it before that the Elegia is the closed version of the Clear. Now, that I'm hearing both, I beginning to see, and hear, how one was able to make such a statement.
