Focal Clear pads available for pre-order for $99 - https://www.headphones.com/products/focal-clear-ear-pads?variant=15888090824775

~edit - Urgh, $29.18 is the cheapest shipping option via UPS Ground for me.

~edit - Forgot shipping is free for orders $100 & over.

How necessary is it for the extra clear pads? What is the lifespan of these?

I made it a whole year with heavy use and the pads looked like dog schiit when I was done lol.

I don't see the clear professional pads anywhere on the website. Is it only the standard clear pads available?

Does it really matter what it looks like if it still sounds fine? Mine still look fine after many years, but if mine looked like “dog schiit”, I am not replacing it unless it would sound also like “dog schiit”.

Are the Clear pads at $99 a limited time deal, or is that going to become the new price of them?

Really hope it’s the latter, of course. Either way I’ll probably pick up a set as it wouldn’t hurt to have an extra pair around.

Wondering if they'll get the red pads in as well.

After owning and listening to the Clears for about a week, I can happily say they are the best I have heard and perfectly fit my sound preferences. They will likely be my endgames for awhile.

Never mind...$30 for ground shipping for the pads. That's a little steep imo.

Only the standard Clear pads. The standard Clear was discontinued, but headphones.com has some available for pre-order, as well as the corresponding grey Clear pads. I think headphones.com will be the only authorized retailer to carry these in stock.

If you're able to get your order up to $100 shipping is free.

And it seems the cheapest thing you can purchase along with the pads to get the price over $100 is another set of pads, lol. Why can't they price them at $100, free shipping on a set of pads can't cost them too much.

Someone suggested the Dekoni foam tips - https://www.headphones.com/products...lack-4-9mm-3-pack?_pos=1&_sid=08309b5e9&_ss=r

Considered that as well, but I don't use foam tips...

Makes sense sure, but what would you rather do? Spend $10 on an actual item and get free shipping or spend $30 on just shipping?

I don’t use them either but I might end up doing that.
