Offered is „focal clear mg with focal headphone stand“ by Focal as second-hand device from the category „Wire bound Headphone“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 7868348086 ends on 26.12.2026 at 09:03 o'clock.
New, the Focal Clear carried a recommended price of €1,499, though it is now discontinued. At €1,000, this used pair sits above the four-listing median of €874 and clears the 75th percentile of €975, so the asking price is ambitious rather than a bargain. It would need to be exceptionally clean and complete to justify the premium.
That said, the Clear remains a superb open-back headphone: dynamic, punchy, tonally engaging, and unusually capable with both acoustic and amplified music. Its build, detachable cables, and generous accessory package add practical appeal, while discontinued status can make a clean original example desirable. At this price, insist on excellent pads, intact yokes and headband, working drivers, and all original accessories; otherwise, negotiate toward the market median.

Focal traces its roots to 1979 in Saint-Étienne, France, where engineer and hi-fi enthusiast Jacques Mahul founded the company in a small workshop within his father's precision engineering firm. Initially operating as JMlab, it began crafting bespoke speaker drivers, with early models like the DB13 earning acclaim for their compact yet dynamic bass performance. This heritage of acoustic innovation and French craftsmanship propelled Focal's evolution, marked by pivotal 1990s expansions under Gérard Chrétien's leadership, yielding iconic references such as the Vega and Grande Utopia loudspeakers that redefined audiophile standards.
The brand's core focus remains high-fidelity loudspeakers, where it excels through in-house driver design featuring breakthroughs like inverted-dome tweeters, Polyglass cones, flax diaphragms, and beryllium tweeters in its Utopia line. Focal has diversified into professional studio monitors, premium headphones, car audio systems, and select accessories, all emphasizing noble materials and meticulous engineering. While not delving into amplifiers, turntables, DACs, or cables, its speaker-centric portfolio spans home, mobile, and pro applications with unwavering commitment to purity of sound.
Positioned firmly in the high-end market, Focal commands respect as a world leader among discerning hi-fi buyers for its benchmark performance, international awards, and "Made in France" prestige. No longer a niche boutique, it blends heritage appeal with cutting-edge technology, attracting serious audiophiles who prioritize transparency, dynamics, and emotional depth over mass-market compromises.
