...or else I discover what happens when I mismatch the removable mini-XLR cables on the Ether Cs (cross the L/R connections with the R/L drivers). It sounded. Well. Lousy. I knit my eyebrows as I plugged in the Ethers to my Magni, Valhalla, Asgard, and Vali ... wondering what went wrong.
I'm now playing with a high-performance bit of kit (tuned speakers, matched cables and all that jazz). I'll say this about my foray into Summit-Fi...
no one headphone is perfect for all music types (Doug & The Slugs on Ethers = wow. ELO's Evil Woman on Ethers = meh). God, what a gloriously ridiculous hobby.
