Open-back headphones that live up to their name

Expressive and entertaining presentation ; Excellent comfort ; Terrific build and finish

Standard cable is just 1.2m long ; Lots of sound leakage ; Lack of isolation from noise

Focal Clear MG review: officially the best wired headphones at the T3 Awards 2021

 

The Focal Clear MG headphones are about as good as it gets for luxurious home hi-fi

Gorgeously rich and realistic sound ; Premium build quality ; Easy to drive ; Very comfortable

Open-backed has disadvantages ; Maybe not totally neutral

The Focal Clear MG headphones offer simply fantastic audio quality, and a comfortable design for long periods of listening. And they can even be driven by portable devices, though are at their best with a great hi-fi setup.

Very expensive

I’m a big fan of Focal’s headphones, and the Clear Mg is certainly no exception. Its name perfectly represents its sound: clear, clean, and open with a wide sound stage and neutral, precise tonal balance. It’s also supremely comfortable. No wonder...

Review: Focal Clear MG | Fabulous Sound With Magnesium Focal Clear MG

 

Focal Clear MG has been upgraded with diaphragms in pure magnesium, which turns out to give even better sound.

Fabulous dynamics and energy. The midrange register is large and focused, and the harmonics are full of detail. Fast and dissolved bass.

Very few.

The open Focal Clear MG are excellent headphones. The music sounds great with many layers of detail and a nice large midrange reproduction. The bass is cash without becoming dominant, and the treble is crisp and detailed without being scratchy. And...
