Not meaning to pick on them, but it does seem like every time I do a search on a Focal model, this issues seems to come up a lot in the threads. Have they fixed their quality control issues? If not, I'm gonna move on....

My right driver stopped working on my
elear headphones today. Loved the sound, but may move on to a more reliable brand for headphones. Disappointing as I have other Focal products such as the Electra speakers.

I have them for 3 years++ now (unit from 2019), fortunately no issue whatsoever so far, but i usually only listen them on low-moderate volume though, focal headphone seemed cannot be push loud especially for elear, for loud listening, i using planar/other dynamic

Also regarding the sound properties, imo it's between Ananda and LCD2C sound signature, not detail like ananda/not bright not thin sounding not wide as ananda, but also not dark or as warm, thick enough, impactful like lcd2c, elear however is most dynamic than them both.
