I just picked up the Focal Elegia, What an interesting set of headphones and frankly it takes a couple days to really appreciate. And one definitely needs something other an a mobile phone to get the best out of them. I’m using mine with an Hiby R6 the tone is substantial better.
One thing about these headphones you get and excellent representation of what was intended in the mix/master process Bass, Mids Highs all there. Detail dynamics separation is terrific.
One thing there not as portable as your typical closed back headphones the case is pretty large. But I’d definitely backpack them for flights. And longer day trips.
Finally I’ve read a couple comments on weak bass I disagree it’s all there including sub bass. Haven’t said that when it comes to heavily compressed music the bass doesn’t slam as hard as some other headphones.
But the separation is so good it more than makes up for any perceived deficiencies.
Personally these are a Joy to listen to it definitely takes a couple days to find ones comfort level. once there it will reproduce pretty much any era of music.
Hope this helps and as always audio opinions are subjective and should be taken as such. Get out and enjoy the music
