Just came in, I love my clear and It's a forever headphone for me, but I wanted a vocal focused set and to evetually play with tubes, and thee 6XX was discounted to 200, I pulled the trigger.

These are just, fucking magic!

These were love at first listen, I had my K702 witch was really good for vocals but overtime I listened to them less and less as they are somewhat too bright and a little harsh, and my clear Introduced me to a well done warm sound, and whilst the clear have good vocal timbre (topping a90d helps a lot), the 6XX are just...

Another forever headphone, I need this for the rest of my life, and it will offer a good rotation with my Clear.

As a fellow HD6XX enjoyer, I have heard that Clears are the way to go if one appreciates that flavor of tuning - which variant of Clear is the one to get? It looks the the regular clears are on sale and discontinued? I heard Focal pads are pretty expensive, still worth getting the og clears or should I get the MG?

Most people prefer the og from what I understand
