You Really like your Fostex/Lawton.
I have to play mine more and then I think I will likely go Lawton.

Do ittt, it is worth it imo lol

Ha ha! Yes I own the Elex. I also own multiple pairs of professional JBL monitor speakers and I personally have a Universal Audio Apollo driving them. You can’t get much higher end than that for pro audio. As for my Q90R soundbar, I have been blown away by it. My girlfriend didn’t want wires and speakers taking up the entire room so we decided on that soundbar. The wireless surround speakers and sub are very convenient. Everything just works effortlessly and I have been loving the sound. Just being honest!

It seems Tyll loved the Clears - Put them on The Wall Of Fame

They are pretty sweet lol

Just purchased a used Focal Elex, hopefully arrives next week, so excited!

Was deciding between the Elex and Audeze LCD 2 but chose the Elex because having one become available in the EU is not a chance that comes up often, hope I’ve made the right decision!

I think you’ll like it, I hope you enjoy it

It was like the last headphone he seemed to really be impressed with wholeheartedly before he retired. lol… but then when he retired… he said he was only taking a pair of Bose Quiet Comfort 35s and Wirelss Beats headphones… lmao

I was wondering what he brought with him. That’s hilarious!

Hope so too, coming from a 598 I think it should be a easy upgrade. Just hope that since this is going to be at my home desktop that I’ll be able to game with these too (CSGO)

M0N · January 23, 2020, 11:10pm

Yeah they work fairly well with gaming. They are more of a music can but they can game for sure

casdeo · January 23, 2020, 11:22pm

That’s perfect for me, as long as they’re decent. Can always go back to my 598s for gaming if I need to. Looking forward to trying them out ever since reading this and many other threads

Pulled the trigger on the Clears. I’m stoked!!!

M0N · January 23, 2020, 11:25pm

Damn nice

Very curious what you think of them

gonzoznog · January 23, 2020, 11:27pm

Got the Clear Pros. Would have like the balanced cable, but I have some that will fit and the extra pads will be helpful. Also think the black/red looks better than the grey.

M0N · January 23, 2020, 11:28pm

Yeah I do like the color on them, I think they look a fair bit better in person too

gonzoznog · January 23, 2020, 11:29pm

Well, I know I have said it before, but thanks to everyone on this forum. You guys are so helpful with advice and I really appreciate it!

Hi hoping someone can help. I just bought a pair of elex a couple weeks ago and I’m having trouble with the treble. On some tracks it’s hard for me to listen to them on others it’s not so bad. I read all the glowing reviews on them so I’m just wondering if I may have gotten a defective pair or is that just how they are? I own a pair of Elegia and have no problem with them.

M0N · January 24, 2020, 2:44am

What amp are you using with them? If you have an elegia I would be surprised if the elex is bothering you
