Open-Back Design

Headphones with an open-back design, allow air to pass through the earcups. This means that Open-Backs do not block any noise from around you, as closed-backs do, and music being heard will also leak outside to people around you. So they can only be heard in a quiet environment.

However, Open-back headphones do sound more natural and open. Open-back headphones create a feeling of space, presenting audio as if you are sitting at a live concert. Audiophiles swear by open-back headphones, and they sound quite different to closed-backs.

These headphones are perfect for critical listening sessions, mixing and mastering music. They have an accurate soundstage presentation and precise imaging.

Planar Magnetic Drivers

Planar magnetic drivers combine characteristics of several driver types. They employ magnetic fields akin to dynamic and balanced armature drivers. However, planar magnetic drivers, like electrostatic drivers, use a flat, thin diaphragm in contrast to a coil. The planar drivers are known for their quick transient response.

Replaceable Cables

A pair of headphones with a replaceable cable has many benefits, and one of them is if the connecting cable has a problem, it doesn’t mean that you have to buy a new one. If the connecting cable gets pulled or damaged, you can replace it and keep using your good-old headphones or IEMs. This way, your headphones will be protected and will last longer. With the advancements in cable manufacturing, you now get a variety of replacement cables with various termination options, lengths and quality.

Description

Meet the top-of-the-line open-back planar magnetic headphone from Dan Clark Audio (formerly MrSpeakers)—the ETHER 2. Experience a stunning life-like sound and comfort with the newly improved components and technology used in this headphone. This headphone is able to deliver a clear, powerful bass, smooth mids and resolving treble that's not too bright offering a dynamic and balanced performance.

Dan Clark Audio has created an entirely new motor using the TrueFlow technology. Unlike their previous headphones, where the TrueFlow technology had been designed into the motor, in the ETHER 2, it's designed around the motor. The new diaphragm has 70% lesser aluminium trace weight when compared to the original ETHER Flow. With this, you get better resolution, dynamics and superb balanced performance.

The ETHER 2 is much lighter than the original ETHER. Other manufacturers tend to switch from metal to plastic components for a lighter build, thereby compromising on the sound. However, the ETHER 2's earcups and headband are made entirely from metal. The driver baffle is made from carbon fibre. At barely 290 grams, this is one of the lightest full-sized planar magnetic headphones on the market.

Experience high-end comfort with the ETHER 2's enhanced webbed head-strap and patent-pending ergonomic earpads. The swappable earpads use a tacky elastomer to fasten to the headphone doing away with heavy magnets, adhesives or bulky stretch-to-mount systems. You can choose between perforated synthetic earpads that create a leaner mid-range for a more lively tonal balanced and a slightly fun sound or suede earpads that deliver a detailed, warm and silky-smooth presentation.

While the original DUM (Distinctly Un-Magical) cable was great, it had its issues. Hence, Dan Clark Audio set out to make a new cable that did not suffer from microphonics or stiffness. With its silver-plated OFHC copper and high-quality materials, the VIVO achieves this along with adding a holographic soundstage and tons of smooth detail. You can pick and choose the connector as well as the length of the cable.

SOUND

FREQUENCY GRAPH

CHEAT SHEET

Regions of the frequency spectrum

SUB BASS
(20Hz - 80 Hz)

The first section of the frequency spectrum is the sub-bass. Everything below 80Hz is sub-bass, so generally, you need a subwoofer or a good pair of headphones (open-back headphones, for example) to hear this region. This region comprises instruments like the Kick Drum and the Bass Guitar. You should be able to hear Sub-Bass if you’re listening on monitors or headphones. But if you’re listening on a laptop or a phone, there’s no way you will hear that.

MID BASS
(80 Hz - 300 kHz)

After the Sub-Bass region, we get into the region known as the Bass or Mid-Bass. This region consists of everything between 80 and 300 hertz. In this area, we’ve got instruments like bass guitar and the low end of a snare. Lots of the low-end vocals as well, because male vocals are going to have the fundamental below 200Hz in most cases.

LOWER MIDRANGE
(300 Hz - 1000 kHz)

Next, if you go from 300 Hz up to 1000 kHz, this is known as the Lower Midrange, and this is a crucial region for music because this is where you get a lot of buildup with guitars, vocals, and even the top-end of the bass guitar especially. Lower Midrange is an area guilty of adding mud to a mix and clarity in this region lifts a track exponentially.

UPPER MIDRANGE
(1 kHz - 6 kHz)

Human hearing focuses inherently on this frequency range. So it’s crucial to get this range right. This region consists of the main focus of the track (e.g. vocals) and synths. Be aware that this is also where you can start to get into harshness and aggressive tones.

TREBLE
(6 kHz - 10 kHz)

After the Upper Midrange, we’ve got the Treble region between 6kHz and 8 kHz, and this is where things start to get harsh. This region is where we have brittleness from instruments like the Hi-Hats and Cymbals. This is also a crucial range for clarity and aggression, especially for female vocals.

AIR
(10 kHz - 20 kHz)

At the end of the frequency spectrum, we get to the Air region or the Top End. This region consists of everything above 10 kHz. This is where we have air and this is where we get a sense of shine and sparkle in our music.

"These are headphones with thousands of dollars’ worth of performance in the shape of something casual and lithe.The Ether 2s have the best design of any high-end headphones."

"Really well balanced across the whole FR with great extension to both sides.I would say it’s a relatively neutral headphone with a warmer or dark tilt with zero mushiness, gooeyness or cloudiness."

"Comfort wise this pays off in spades, the Ether 2 might just be one of the most comfortable headphones I’ve ever worn. The headstrap sits like a feather."

"The Ether 2 is a wonderful headphone that I enjoy coming home to after a long and hard day at work. It makes me forget all the stress of the daily big city life."

"The Ether 2 is especially well-suited to movies, as the sound is liberated from the ear cups, and dialogue is full bodied and natural. The Ether 2 melts away as it pulls you into the music."

"I would happily include the MrSpeakers ETHER2 among to the top five or so headphones I have heard and they currently rank number two among my favorites right behind the VOCE."

"Like a great film that refuses to exceed 90 minutes, the Ether Flow 2 leaves you wanting more. Temperate, yet rich, there’s an undeniable elegance to this headphone."

"I can rock out with this headphone over a wide range of energetic genres yet at the same time slap on an Agnes Obel vocal performance and feel very relaxed and involved."
