I have the same question. I read on other forums that there is no way that an electrostatic iem can rival a full size electrostatic headphone. Then there are others that believe that they are just as good as Apple pods or any other iem lol

Thanks Focal for screwing the resale value of my headphones in less than a year!

Well, folks are asking who has them in stock

Well if it is just EDM and hip-hop, I would go with a TH900. You can pick a used one for 750.

Hope it comes out on Black Friday with a nice 25% discount......dreaming

I would not mind putting the money upfront for w nice discount even if it takes a few months

More time to save money for them!

I hope they don't increase prices to match the utopia and lcd4

My plan is a centrance m8 with the elears

Any changes to the cable being made by focal?

Thanks guys!

Is the Elear available now? I am very interested in listening to it...I might have to buy it to try it.

I wished I had been there. sucks to work weekends :(

That's great to hear! Looking forward to more impressions.

Is the utopia at the SF Meet? Any impressions?

That sucks. Adorama has good customer support, but I would go straight to the manufacturer and keep the savings from your purchase.

Want! What's the ETA for it?

I completely agree. The SR-009 is in a different league than the HD800. I am waiting for Sennheiser to release an electrostatic for the rest of us.

Is this for sale in the US?

I don't think they come with it, but you can find them for sale somewhere else such as herbiesaudiolab

Cocobolo is not that fragrant. Brazilian Rosewood is. Btw some people are allergic to cocobolo

Very interesting thank you. I have not been a fan of the LCD3F presentation of acoustic guitar. So, it looks like the treble is better with the LCD4. I would definetly like to try them.

How about some impressions? I am dying to hear comparisons to the SR009 and HE1000

Thank you dexanex and TMRaven! I guess we'll just have to wait for impressions.

I have never seen the HD800 cup. Can somebody tell a difference between the two?
