Innerfidelity.com Focal Clear review: what an enthusiast headphone should be: It's gorgeous; it's comfortable; its accessories are spectacular; and its sound is clear as a Montana winter sky. It's not bright, or dark, or liquid, or even—some odd way—neutral. It's just competently and confidently true to the music
TheVerge.com: 'the Clear is a definite luxury purchase for any of us, but my experience with it over the past few weeks has confirmed that Focal has once again struck gold'
techhive.com: 5 Stars: ' one of the best I have ever reviewed. It's a superior product for the discerning music lover who demands the finest musical reproduction possible.'
Stereophile.com: 'I have logged months of daily use of the Focal Clears, and compared them at length with Audeze's LCD-X and with Focal's own Elear and Utopia headphones... Nowadays, I use the Utopias and LCD-Xes as tools for studying recordings rather than for listening pleasure. Fortunately, listening pleasure is exactly what the Focal Clears gave me. They had that super-satisfying, just-right Goldilocks magic. They are my new real-world reference...'

The headphones were out of stock by no fault of The Headphone Bar. The Focal Clears are enjoying high demand due to their absoluletly equiste sound. But the Headphone Bar never forgot that I wanted them and kept me apprized of when they were expecting them in and then immedately delivered them. The follow up in these days and times was nothing short of exceptional. The staff knew what they were talking about too. Owning 4 sets of high quality cans I can say that the Focal Clears are worth every penny.
I've had a few weeks with them now and I love them. I'm impressed with the bang for your buck. The build is perfect. They wear really comfortable. I experience no fatigue, either in comfort or listening. The accessories are a treat. The cables and case are very nice and make this a great value. They sound spectacular and will get very dynamic. The service from Headphone Bar as always was exceptional. Quick ship and great coms. Thnx Headphone Bar !!
CanadaI have tested a range of high-end headphones and this is best sweet spot for me. Tremendous build quality, uber comfortable, and the sound you'd expect from Focal. While not as technically good as the Utopia, it's a better value for the dollar. For me, this beats out Sennheiser offerings, destroys the Grado line (I own a pair of RS1's) and even sounds significantly better than the Stax heaphone and amp setup at my local hifi shop. I cannot recommend these any more strongly. If you're a planar person, maybe you like the LCD line better, but the build quality and longevity of the dynamic driver make it a much more worthwhile purchase for me personally. And as all my experiences have been with the Headphone Bar this one was smooth and professional - excellent service and prompt delivery.
I still haven't told my wife.
