PATENT PENDING

Product Data Sheet

Elear is an open back pair of headphones featuring numerous innovations from Focal, which are key to their outstanding acoustics performance.
Elear offers the world’s first, full range and fully open back loudspeaker, built-in to a pair of headphones. Additionally, they are made from an
Aluminum-Magnesium blend, in a formed shape, unique to Focal with the company’s brand new “M” shape dome. This new dome shape has
originated from the research performed during the Utopia headphone project that will offer the highest quality sound, while avoiding potential
avenues of distortion.
The acoustic quality of this exclusive solution allowed Focal to avoid the use of any crossover or passive filtering process in order to achieve a
frequency response from 5Hz to 23kHz.
The result is thus impressively realistic, making the headphones virtually disappear and providing listeners with a truly unique high-fidelity audio
experience. Elear also benefits from the R&D done on Utopia. With regards to mechanical design, the rotation traditionally included on the yoke
has been moved into the headband to ensure the total purity of the design. The microfiber fabric, used on the cushions, offers a true comfort for all
head shapes and sizes – a quality that is mandatory for long listening sessions.
