I have the focal utopia pads and love them. If these are close to the same then these are a bargain.

Many thanks for this tip, I will try the same with my Clear padsI did wash my original Focal Clear pads in the washing machine, wool no-spin cycle, 40°C, mild detergent, they came out like new.
I have this on my clear pro. I would say it is okay, those holes on the pad are very, very tiny, make the sound less open than the original pads.Has anyone tried these? If so impressions?

I need an oppinion
i just recently about to buy elear, in my country it's about 575 usd (brand new), then i saw someone post focal clear (used like new) is about 1050 usd, but sadly the brand new one here is about 1600 usd
my question is, should i upgrade to clear, is 450usd additional price is worthed/can be justified to upgrade to used clear, is the clear 2 times better from elear, i also learn focal warranty not transferable (CMIIW), this used clear not covering by focal official warranty as well, only personal warranty from seller, please advise, should i take this offer, tks

Focal has changed their policy, according to this post from Mrs. Marine at Focal, it is transferable for all headphones:
This applies to all headphones.
Exactly, the warranty starts with the first buyer which is why we need the very first invoice.

ehm, thats because i read this ==> https://www.head-fi.org/threads/focal-utopia-general-discussion.811273/page-31#post-12873652
or i just misunderstood ?
the used clear owner seems can't provide the very first invoice, by the way, the elear i bought recently is from elite audio which is one of elear official focal distributor/dealer here in indonesia, but sadly they dont sell clear in my country (i already asked them, they only sell elear), maybe if there's any upgrade program that will be good, i want to buy clear that time but that's not available, i only manage to find third party user sell used clear without invoice here... (he didnot buy from official dealer)
Also i;m curious, why focal clear not available here in official distributor/dealer ?

Focal really needs to improve their QC. I got my Clear on ebay a few days ago, and the left driver audibly rattles when there is bass content. And no, I'm not playing it at ear-splitting, soul-crushing volume but rather normal everyday listening volume. I did a 40Hz sine wave sweep and the left driver emits a very annoying buzz much like ra990's pair. The seller claims that there's a warranty card in the box but I can't find it. Does any of yall's clear comes with a warranty card? Or is it a focal dealer's warranty?
