  • End Game Worthy
The FOCAL MG is truly something special, both in looks and sound. It's the kind of headphone that could be considered the ultimate destination for audio enthusiasts. The bass hits with a satisfying punch, but it never feels too heavy-handed. The mids are wonderfully rich and intricate, drawing you into the music. And the treble adds just the right amount of sparkle without any harshness. Overall, the FOCAL MG creates a warm, inviting sound that's incredibly immersive, with fantastic imaging and staging. The packaging and accessories are pretty standard. Unfortunately, the included cables are of low quality, which is a letdown given the FOCAL MG price. I strongly suggest investing in a third-party cable. I bought Youkamoo cables on Amazon for less than $20, and they're excellent for the price. On the bright side, the carrying case that comes with the headphones is sturdy and doesn't feel cheap at all. The FOCAL MG are quite easy to power and work well with nearly any source, though they do get a slight boost from a quality DAC/amp setup. Personally, I've paired them with the Fiio K7, and the combination works beautifully for a desk setup. On the go, I pair these with the Hiby R6 Pro II, and the sound is nearly indistinguishable from my desk setup using a balanced output Overall, I rate these a 4.5/5. ... show more

  • another excellent headphone from Focal
I have the (closed-back) Focal Elegia's which are excellent. Wanted to add an open-backed option for private home listening so plumped for these. As with the Elegia's, yes they have low enough impedance to be driven straight from a cell phone or laptop, but UNLESS you have an external DAC/headphone amp to drive these, DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY. Quite why you'd drop 4-figures on a high end set of audiophile cans and then plug them straight into a laptop or phone thinking you'll get great results is beyond me anyway. The DACs in phones and laptop are cheap and crappy and that's what they make these headphones if that's all you have to drive them. A headphone amp though (Chord's excellent MOJO for example) really takes these up thru the gears and boy are they incredible! They look amazing, but the design is actually acoustically functional, not just aethetically pleasing. Amazing build quality: leather and brushed aluminium. Everything you'd expect from a FOCAL product. They are even more comfortable than the Elegia's which I didn't think possible and the sound stage (as expected with open back) is impressive. Much clearer, with tight, clear, punchy bass. The mids and trebles, as noted in other reviews, really are something else. Definitely a worthy purchase at this price point, but again, a waste of money without a DAC/amp to drive them. ... show more

  • Impressive build and packaging but not the sound for me
Probably the best unboxing experience I have had for a set of headphones at any price point. Visually the headphone itself is unique and pleasing. I really wanted to like it. However, I did not find the Focal ear pads and headband comfortable. My ears got too warm after not many minutes. As for the sound, I was disappointed with the way vocals, particularly female vocals, seemed recessed - clear enough but somehow too laid back. Soundstage was not great but instrument detail and separation was not hindered by that. Bass and mids both sound good to me. If not for the discomfort, and disappoining tuning in the vocal range this could have been a great addition to my collection. Still giving it four stars as these things are subjective and it might be exactly what some people are looking for. ... show more

  • AWESOME
These things are just fantastic. When you put them on, there is no presence of any form of sound barrier over your ears. Its like your ears are not covered with anything. They are light and comfortable. The detail in the sound is just unbelievable. Great for late night listening. They are definitely best when used in silent areas because you will hear a lot of outside sounds. But I listen after midnight when it is very quiet and hear sounds in music that I have listened to for years that I have never noticed before. I can't imagine what their Utopia cans sound like at $5,000. I would love a pair of those. ... show more

  • A highly resolving, dynamic and wonderful headphone
These headphones provide a realistic three dimensional space with air around the notes and instruments. They occasionaly fool me when the music begins by making me believe that I have left the speakers on in the room. The top end was a bit bright at times, causing me to swap out my pure silver after-market cables, in favor of pure copper. That turned them from fatiguing to fun, while retaining all of the clarity I wanted. These phones also benefit from a warmer sounding headamp. When I switched to a tubed headamp/DAC from RME and the THX 789 AAA, these headphones became even more like being there and hence more fun to listen to. The build quality and finish are excellent and they are very comforable over extended listening. Hence, after close to a year, and paired with the right equipment, they are my favorite openbacks. They are benchmark clear. Enthusiastically recommended. ... show more

  • Excellent sound
These are the best performing open back headphones that I own. I started with Sennheiser HD580’s 20+ years ago. Then I acquired the Drop/Sennheiser HD6xx, which were slight improvement. The Drop/Focal Elex were next, and for the price-performance are highly recommended. The Clear MG’s however are even better, although twice the price. They are very accurate, making source material very critical to get the best playback enjoyment. Bottom line: if you could have only one pair of headphones, and can live with drawbacks of sound leakage, these are highly recommended. Expensive, but you get what you pay for in sound quality and materials used in construction. They work well with output from digital players, but shine when driven by the Schitt Vali 2 amp (highly recommended). ... show more
