Focal Elear - Impressions Thread
just seen on the Focal website that the elears and utopias are now coming with 9 foot (2m) cords instead of the 13 footers (3m). obviously someone at Focal was listening. personnaly I don't mind the 13 feet, but most don't so good on Focal for listening to us- judomaniak

Focal Elear - Impressions Thread
I have both the Elear and Senn. 600's. would not get rid of either. l just wish the Elear was as comfy has the 600s. I can wear my 600s all day long. I do find them both very musical and I prefer the Elear but choice is always good so the 600s will stay- judomaniak

Focal Elear - Impressions Thread
bought mine from a brick and mortor store, not online. returned to the store no problem. just received a e-mail from focal giving me a 5 year warranty.also $1000 is a deal, $1500 in Canada, a 50% increase, when the utopias are $5000 which is a 25% increase over the American price. not sure why...- judomaniak
