Focal Clear Mg Professional Reference Open-Back Studio Headphones
The Focal Clear Mg Professional are premium open-back reference studio headphones designed for mixing, mastering and critical monitoring. Developed as a professional monitoring tool, they combine Focal’s proprietary driver technology with an open acoustic architecture intended to provide high resolution, precise dynamics and accurate spatial reproduction.
At the heart of the Clear Mg Professional is a 40 mm full-range dynamic driver with an M-shaped pure-magnesium dome. Magnesium combines low mass with high rigidity, allowing the diaphragm to respond rapidly to transient information while maintaining precise control over its movement.
The distinctive M-shaped dome geometry further increases diaphragm rigidity and contributes to a highly controlled response. Together with Focal’s driver architecture, this allows the headphones to reveal subtle changes in dynamics, texture and articulation that are essential when evaluating complex mixes.
With a frequency response of 5 Hz to 28 kHz, the Clear Mg Professional provide substantial extension at both ends of the spectrum. Low frequencies remain defined and articulate, while the midrange and treble retain the clarity required for detailed work with vocals, instruments, ambience and processing.
The open-back circumaural construction minimizes internal acoustic reflections and allows the drivers to operate in a less restricted environment. This contributes to a spacious stereo image with precise localization, helping engineers evaluate panorama, depth, reverberation and separation between individual elements.
An impedance of 55 ohms and sensitivity of approximately 104 dB SPL / 1 mW provide compatibility with a broad range of professional audio interfaces and headphone amplifiers. While the headphones are not exceptionally difficult to drive, a high-quality source and amplification stage allow their resolution and dynamic capability to be used more effectively.
Focal also places considerable emphasis on long-session comfort. The Clear Mg Professional use perforated microfiber ear pads that promote airflow around the ears, while the headband is engineered to distribute pressure evenly during extended mixing and mastering work.
The rigid yoke and premium structural components provide stability and accurate positioning of the earcups. The distinctive professional finish separates the Clear Mg Professional visually from Focal’s consumer-oriented models while retaining the company’s recognizable industrial design.
The supplied OFC copper cables support integration with different professional and personal audio systems. Multiple connection options make it practical to move between studio interfaces, mixing equipment and other high-quality playback systems without changing the monitoring reference.
Combining a pure-magnesium M-shaped driver, open-back architecture and highly resolving dynamic performance, the Focal Clear Mg Professional are designed as a reference monitoring system for engineers, producers and mastering professionals who require detailed tonal, dynamic and spatial information from their headphones.
