Welcome to the club. Mine are sitting at Canadian Customs waiting for clearance. Hopefully they’ll arrive tomorrow.

I like that pairing very much. Sweet and engaging. Both my Clear and Radiance pair well with this tube amp.That Icon amp is beautiful. How does it pair with the Radiance?
Interesting. This leads me to wonder, as I have before, is the Radiance actually a “limited edition”? I know it’s marketed that way, but does anyone actually know how many units have been produced and if they will eventually completely sell out?Also noticed the Rad has jumped up in price at A2A since I bought it, it's back up to $1000AUD. Looks like it's scaling based on how many they have left. Interestingly the Clear and Bathys haven't moved from their original price yet.

if it helps can you try to tilt top of the cups inward.I've had the Radiance for 10 days now but I find the clamping is very weak when compared to my Clear MGs, as a result I get quite a bit of sound leakage both ways. They sit on my head without any extension but will easily fall off if I tilt my head too quickly. I love how they sound and I'm getting good bass, I'm not a bass head, with no bloating in the sub extension. Comparing the clamping of the Clears I have to have them two clicks downwards for a comfortable fit but these Radiance just look too wide in comparison. May have to send them back.
Thanks for the reply. Yes I know that adjustment. I e-mailed Focal and got a reply saying that all headbands for all the range except the Utopia are made exactly the same. My wife says she can tell what I'm listening to with the Radiance but is unable to do so with my other closed backs the Denons. I've got until Saturday to return them.if it helps can you try to tilt top of the cups inward.
If they say it is same, you can send a video which shows the weak clamping compared to your Focal MG, hopefully it can help.Thanks for the reply. Yes I know that adjustment.

What's odd is that I'm getting good bass which is usually the first frequency that disappears with poor fitting ear cups. They are comfortable for sure but has the weakest clamp of all my cans.
I'm taking it back to the dealer and it's well within the 30 days for a replacement or full refund.If they say it is same, you can send a video which shows the weak clamping compared to your Focal MG, hopefully it can help.
