I have been looking over a pair of head earphones, for quite some time. My original Panasonic model had many issues when I attached it to my sound system, all I got was static, and moments where it would be very loud. I could never get the sound adjusted. With Focal Clear MG, the sound is there, not loud. When using these headphones with a mobile phone devise, you definitely need to get an amplifier, itâll make listening even more enjoyable. In regards to the fit, my ears do not feel crushed when I put them on. Although, they look huge theyâre actually quite comfortable. Perfect headphones ,for any kind of music you want to listen too.
Awesome sound, but needed to return =(

I had 3 days since new and the left driver started to make very loud crackling metallic noises when volume 50% and above. Something very stange happened to that driver, I suppose it was a defective unit. I'm in the middle of the return/exchange process, I hope the second unit comes better (perfect, I would assume for this price)... Very unlucky....

It is priced the same as the (black & Red) Clear MG "Professional" but this Chestnut colored one is NOT labelled "Professional". Is it a "Lower Standard Tool" than the professional (or was the person typing in the description negligent to the details)?
There is a bit of a sound difference. The MG Clear has a slightly more friendly, rounded sound while the Professional has a more analytical, unforgiving sound.

Does these headphones need a break in period , if so for how many hours does it need and how loud should you play them for the break in period to finish ?
Here is the information that the manufacturer provides in the user manual for the Focal Clear MG headphones regarding an initial break-in period:
• These headphones require a running-in period in order to operate at their best.
• They will run themselves in naturally after several hours of listening time.
• If you want to speed up the process, we recommend playing very bassy music through them for at least 24 hours at a relatively high volume.
• This will stabilize the speaker drivers and allow you to get the very best out of your headphones.
