MrSpeakers ETHER Open Back Headphones with Premium Replaceable Cable

MrSpeakers ETHER

Built from the ground up, ETHER represents the new flagship headphone made by MrSpeakers with newly designed planar magnetic drivers providing greater linearity, speed and dynamics. With low weight, innovative materials and very detailed, natural and organic sound the ETHER planar magnetic headphones are optimised for both performance and comfort.

MrSpeakers' ETHER headphone is an all-new design that makes use of several technology and manufacturing innovations to improve performance. ETHER is built around a newly designed advanced single-ended planar driver. To optimise performance the planar has been processed using MrSpeakers' patent-pending V-Planar technology.

One way the MrSpeakers team cut weight without sacrificing performance was to invent an industry-first: a headband made of NiTinol 'memory metal'. NiTinol is super-light and very flexible so it gives a great fit with minimal clamp. MrSpeakers also designed a new flat earpad that reduces the size of the headphone, provides a great seal, and is made from signature lamb-leather for ETHER to be worn comfortably for long sessions.

Filling the void with engaging sound.

V-Planar Driver
V-Planar technology addresses non-linear driver motion by more deeply creasing the diaphragm to increase compliance that improves acceleration. With more of the driver surface in linear motion, V-Planar can not only push more air at low frequencies, but with greater acceleration also delivers better dynamics, high-end frequency response, and measurably lower distortion.

NiTinol Headband
ETHER also uses a NiTinol "memory metal" headband to reduce weight and improve comfort. NiTinol is Nickel-Titanium alloy that is heat-treated to a set geometry that's ideally mated to our earpads to deliver a quality seal with minimal pressure.

Prime Materials
Precision machined Aluminium baffle, pivots and gimbals together with the advanced Nitinol headband material make for a strong and lightweight headphone. The Italian leather with microsuede headband covering and genuine lamb-leather earpads further enhances the wearing comfort and luxurious feel of the ETHER headphones.
