Reply to comment by Roxaos in Focal headphones and clipping by Roxaos

I had the Elex with that same clipping problem: couldn’t play it past a specific volume particularly for songs with deep bass hits (Jacoo - Breathe, for instance). Sold the Elex and found a used Clear. Tested before I bought with particular tracks I knew were problematic for the Elex and there was NO clipping. Same volume levels and all.

Not only do they not clip, but the Clears are way more dynamic and open sounding than the Elex. I don’t know how anyone would say the Elex is 90% of the Clears. For me, the Clears are on a completely different level. Worth every penny.
