That’s great!
It’s great that I received a defective pair of headphones that cost $2000????
Just kidding. I know what you mean.
That’s great!
For other mrspeaker’s offerings, it was rare to find a defective unit.
I suspect that due to the extremely light weight of ether 2, it might pose some challenges in manufacturing process.
I just got an update from Mr. Speakers, and they said my pair was defective. They’re sending me out a new pair that should be here next week.

Well that's great my Ether 2s are arriving in a couple of weeks and I am now completely paranoid that I am going to get a defective pair. Is there a particular test one can do for untrained ears to make sure all is as it should be?
That's very to know, maybe you can take a listen to the Sheffield Drum Record after receiving the new set and see how the drums sound to you!
wow this Sheffield Drum and Track Record is amazing on E2! thank you.
Interesting album. I had not herd before. Played it by way of Tidal.It's an old album but has anyone listened to the Sheffield Drum Record using E2, drums sound real good on ether flow, can anyone compare? Especially Jim Keltner track.
You're welcome! Its a long standing audio equipment test track I use. Pure nirvana would be to set up a drum kit between two speakers and with your eyes closed cannot tell which is which!!!
I have EFO 1.1 and E2.
I’ve been busy playing with different tubes w/ my new Liquid Platinum, so I haven’t done any careful comparisons, but here’s what I’ve got so far:
Definitely related — brothers, or maybe cousins. I’m sure that if you dislike EFO you won’t like E2.
E2 headstage is amazing — very 3d.
E2 bass seems cleaner, a little more extended (have to check this) and a little more linesr in the mid-bass. Small differences though.
I don’t find either can fatiguing. Keep in mind that I preferred EFO 1.0 with e-stat pads and I like Auteur & Utopia, so the Ethers are far away from what I would call fstiguing.
Okay for those who have been wanting a comparison to EFO, I have been doing a bit of A/B testing between E2, EFO, Autuer, Atticus, LCD2, HD800S, Utopia, Aeon Flow Open, HD650
I accidentally hut post before I even really got started. It's done now : )So where is that comparison review?
You wouldn't be able to tell if you had a live drum kit or speakers playing that close because you would either need hearing protection or be deaf lol. 130dB peaks are really not a good idea!
