## Questions & Answers

**Q: The Elear has good bass response, how are people complaining about the bass on this?**
A: I've been a bass player for 30 years. I don't find the Elegia to be lacking in bass. I use them when I need a closed back headphone. I have the Focal Clear for home use and the bass is somewhat comparable. My source is a KANN Cube which I find is outstanding. Listening to Hotel California right now, bass response is fine. One man's opinion, good luck.

**Q: Any preference on balanced cable?**
A: I'd say most all cables are a user preference thing.  For long runs balanced may be prone to less noise. Whether you'll hear the difference from one balanced cable to another is likely up to your ears alone. For normal, i.e. close, use single ended or balanced are probably the same. But, user preference beats all.

**Q: What cable connections plug into the headphones themselves? Are they dual 2.5mm plugs or screw ons, or something else?**
A: The Focal Elegia headphone accepts a 3.5mm mono mini-plug on each side. Note: the Focal factory supplied cables include a small ring at the end of the plug that holds the plug in place. You should also be aware that all Focal headphone cables will fit the Elegia, both unbalanced and balanced (4-pin XLR at amp output).

**Q: Can they work with televisions**
A: Assuming your tv has the appropriate audio jack and/or you have have the appropriate adaptor(s), yes.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Surprisingly brilliant!
*by  on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 6 January 2026*

Beautifully produced headphones which are by far the most comfortable I own. They come with a very smart case, cable (a bit to stiff for my liking) and adapter to go between 6.4mm and 3.5mm outputs. Initially I found the midrange to be a bit overpowering and the bass to be under emphasized but the sound really grew on me the more I listened. The bass extension is excellent and they provide about as much range as you could possibly hope for in a pair of headphones. The highs are also present and detailed but in no way harsh. The soundstage goes pretty wide and there is pretty good separation between instruments. Sound isolation is pretty good but the surprising thing is how the sound these produce is more akin to a pair of open-back headphones. I'm very happy with this purchase and would recommend to anyone looking for a quality pair of headphones.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent clarity, sound stage and bass extension.
*by  on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 25 September 2022*

These are the best headphones I've ever owned. I have good equipment to pair with these including Chord Mojo 2 and the Chord Poly. I run all this through Roon, BubbleUPNP, Qobuz and Wavelet apps. It might seem like a lot but it gets me the best quality sound I can get. These headphones sound amazing, be it heavy metal, electronic or orchestral and everything in between. These are also closed back so I can go for walks, commute and even cycle with these on and nothing from the outside gets in. So, the big thing for most people is the price point. I got these on a discount so it might be wise to stick these on your wish list for a while and hold out for a better offer. The amazon.co.uk price is a little higher than it should be as you can get these cheaper elsewhere if you shop around. But, I got these from amazon.co.uk at a good price so it is possible to bag yourself a bargain. Just one final though, Focal are a great company that make excellent audio products and they have been doing it for decades. Hope this helps you in your considerations.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Exquisite detail but worth the price tag?
*by  on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 4 September 2026*

Detail retrieval is genuinely excellent — these headphones are analytical rather than “fun,” presenting everything the artist put into the mix with real separation between instruments. Nothing blurs unless it’s meant to.Build quality and feel are outstanding, and that quality shows throughout — including in the clamping force, which can feel a bit tight on larger heads. Not comfortable for everyone, but it does keep the seal locked in.Bass is present when it’s in the mix, but don’t expect depth or real impact down low. This isn’t a headphone that adds warmth or excitement — it reports what’s there.I was initially disappointed given the hype, but I’ve come around: the Elegia fills a specific niche rather than trying to be all things. If you mix, master, or just want to hear a recording with total honesty, they’re superb. If you want fun, warmth, or bass slam, look elsewhere.Worth the price? On balance — yes, but only for that specific use case. It’s not a headphone for everyone, and Focal never really pretended it was.
