Focal Elear - Open-Box (Discontinued)
The Focal Elear over-ear open-back headphones are inspired by the same technology and research that went into their flagship Utopia headphones.
The Elear is designed and manufactured by Focal in France and features wide-range, near-field loudspeakers.
Drivers
The Elear features large 40mm full-range aluminum/magnesium “M”-shaped dome drivers. The drivers share their unique shape with the Focal Utopia offering high-quality sound and reducing distortion.
Open Headphone Design
Focal decided that the best way to deliver on the Elear's potential was to use an open headphone design to completely decompress the loudspeakers. The open design provides the lowest acoustic impedance to reproducing accurate and detailed bass frequencies and provides a natural listening experience.
Ear Cups
The over-ear cups feature 20mm thick memory foam cushions, wrapped in soft microfiber.
Cable
The included 9.8' (3-meter) high fidelity cable features OFC (oxygen-free copper) shielding with 24 AWG conductors and extremely low impedance (under 90 mΩ). The 2-sided balanced cable features dual 3.5mm connectors for plugging into the ear cups, and a standard 1/4" plug for connecting to your source.
