    Well, I love Focal products, I haven't test those one and compare to my less expensive lovely Audeze LCD-2 Classic, but I tend to think that Sonarworks make great serious review and they write about those headphones : "The problem with Clear is Elear, a headphone half the price and 2 times the performance. If Clear was supposed to be an improvement on the Elear, then Focal needs to go back to the drawing board."
    But MG is a new 2021 revision of the Clear ? Maybe they are way better. This sonarworks review is from 2019 ... But if Elear is very similar and three time less expensive, it's a problem...

    I'd put good money on Slate VSX being a better buy for mixing and mastering. I'll never go back to regular headphones, speaking personally. Having several virtual world class studio rooms along with popular headphones and even cars, all a click away.. I'm doubtful that can be beat by a simple headphone.

  • @revelationsoundstudio
    @revelationsoundstudio 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Good review but anytime someone does not mentioned anything negative you start to question. You did not mention the limited sound stage that this headphones have. The Beyerdynamic 1990's have improved sound stage and Sennheiser 800s sound stage blows the Clears out of the water. The top end on the Clears lack a crystal clean sound and are a little dull. I had to increase the treble on my pre amp to get the high end to sound more open. Other than that the build quality and sound is very good.

  • @SoundcastStudios

I honestly can't tell any difference between them and the $100 Shure headphones I was using before, so I've been considering returning them. So this giveaway was timed perfectly👍 good luck to everybody else, but I hope I win😂

    I’m glad these work for you. It’s hard to find “bad” cans in the $1400 range. But I will admit that I got their $300 pair (still not cheap for cans) and was really disappointed. It had a weird frequency response and even Sonarworks didn’t fix it because it required so much EQ, it caused phase noise. It kinda put me off of the brand to be honest.

    • @ColtCapperrune
      @ColtCapperrune  3 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      I’m sorry you had that experience, to be perfectly transparent I don’t have any experience with any of their other headphones. Although I’ve Worked on several different pairs of their monitors. I can assure you this is not just a sales pitch. If I didn’t think they were unbelievable I would have not made this video. Thanks for watching!

      I’m trying to decide between Audeze MM500 and Focal Clear MG Pro. I can get the clear pros on discount thru GC for $1125 right now, but I’ve been hearing a lot of great things about the MM500s. Would you say the MM500’s are $500 “better” than the Clear Pro? I know there’s really no “best”, but if price weren’t a factor, which would you choose? Fwiw, I bought (and prefer) the Focal Radiance over the Audeze LCD XC for my go-to closed back cans. Currently looking for a high end complimentary set of open backs 😁
