I really enjoyed the Focal Clears, but I'm curious to hear people's impressions between these and the elex as I haven't heard the elex.
Most impressions I've seen around is that the Elex and Clear are very similar in tuning and technicalities with some differences. I recall Resolve from the headphone show gave some brief differences of the Elex and Clear on his Clear review on his old channel. I wouldn't say you're missing out really, other than missing on saving dollars because diminishing returns plays high past the $1k price tag IMO.I really enjoyed the Focal Clears, but I'm curious to hear people's impressions between these and the elex as I haven't heard the elex.
That's the general consensus I've heard. Clear is better, but not better enough to justify paying nearly $1000 more.Most impressions I've seen around is that the Elex and Clear are very similar in tuning and technicalities with some differences.

From my understanding they are sonically the same. Color way and accessories being the difference, as with their previous versions.My guess is the Clear Mg will be the same as the Mg Pro. Seems the most likely but I know there’s still some speculation that they might be different.

Hello,Focal Clear with the Sony TA-ZH1ES connected via XLR4 is an AMAZING combo. Well, that with the Sony cradle and WM1Z using the Carbon Cable. I'm happy I found the best open back headphones in the Clear and closed back with the Sony MDR-Z1R.

My understanding is that it is the same tuning.New Clear Mg looks pretty good - do you guys/gals think it will be the exact same tuning as the Clear Mg Pro? PDF shows identical specs to the Pro.
