Focal Elegia im Test 1.1.2019 von Klaus Laumann Ein geschlossener, voll mobiltauglicher Kopfhörer auf der Basis eines offenen High-End-Modells? Focal Elegia: wanted to complement the K812 with a more balanced and closed HP without losing details and clarity. I’d easily take these over the Beyerdynamic T5p I just sold and I’d take these over the Mr.Speakers Ether C and Aeon, Audio Technica W5000, the early revision Audeze LCD-XC I heard, the Denon D7200, Sony Z7M2, the HD820 from my demos with it, and possibly the TH900 because the low midrange dip on those bugs me so much, but I wouldn’t take it over the ZMF Eikon, Sony Z1R, Stax 4070, or Denon D7000. Those two earn their spot, but the Mobius takes 3rd place just because it showed up. Relative to the higher end closed market, they’re somewhere in the middle. These premium headphones are very comfortable for long listening sessions and have a great build quality thanks to a metal frame and a detachable cable.
