    Editing is crashing the forum for me so I'll follow up...

    Detail in particular Utopia seemed to be far above Clear across the spectrum. I'm not saying Clear is a poor headphone especially considering the price difference, but idk I wouldn't ever consider switching to a Clear from Utopia despite the 6 KHz peak.

    Yes. Tyll made a post about it. Came down to tonality.

    I guess I'm in a minority that strongly favors detail. Thanks for the response!

    Utopia is the more cohesive sounding headphone. I’ve heard it several times and the 6khz peak never bothered me. A good tube amp is probably a must

    Me neither, which is strange because the peak on HD800 very much did. I find Utopia on my dac/amp combo less fatiguing than HD800 on the tube amp and warm cayin idac-6 I used to have.
