Reply to comment by heyyoudvd in PSA to Australians: The Focal Celestee is currently $650 AUD (~$440 USD) at Addicted to Audio by Jayden92

Thanks! Tbh I think both should be great. I have the Clear’s open backs and they are amazing. So was looking at a closed back and not sure how long these prices will last.

I’m curious, when you heard the Elegia, how did you find they compared to the Clear?

Apparently Focal’s original goal with the Elegia was to try to create a closed back Clear, but while people seem to like the Elegia, I get the impression it’s fairly different from the Clear.

Pardon the pun but the Clear just sounds a lot more clear! Comparing open back to closed it's probably not that much of a surprise. They just reveal more than the Elegia.
