I have multiple Focal headphones (Bathys, Elear, Elex, Elegia, Celestee, Clear OG, and Radiance). The 100hr break in period is really important with Focal headphones and speakers.
How much did it change for you? Because I bought my mg clear pro but I think it’s kinda “distanced”, so rap isn’t hitting well. Not punchy enough. You think it can improve with time?
I think for bass punch, the Maestro SE, being an IEM and known for bass, punches harder, but the focal clear gets that edge with soundstage depth and detail, because of its tuning and the fact its a headphone which has its own benefits in providing soundstage illusion compare to an IEM. I own the Utopia 2022 and while i feel is a step above, but the price difference may be too much for most people to justify the 10-15% upgrade in sound

Thanks for sharing your experience with Focal products, you've got a really nice collection there, Utopia joining in that collection someday?
Which one is your favorite for mixing and mastering?

Great! Keep the reviews coming! 💯
Thank you!
Focal Clear Pro sounds better than Clear MG Pro.
Is this better than maestro se for punch, detail and soundstage depth? I wonder how Utopia compares to se as well if you have heard it.
