Dan Clark Audio ETHER Flow 1.1 – Open Precision, All-Day Comfort

High-performance audio in a classic full-size form – ETHER Flow 1.1 (open) and ETHER C Flow (closed).

ETHER Flow 1.1 delivers a sumptuous blend of resolution, dynamics, and long-term comfort. The open-back Flow 1.1 excels at natural staging and transparency, while the closed-back ETHER C Flow defines the standard for isolation and focused punch—ideal when you need to block out noise or avoid disturbing others.

The 1.1 Update: Focus & Dynamics

Dan Clark’s commitment to enthusiasts includes upgrading existing models whenever meaningful improvements are found. Alongside the acclaimed Ether 2, the ETHER Flow family received the 1.1 tuning, revising the acoustic system for tighter detail focus and improved micro-dynamics.

TrueFlow & V-Planar

TrueFlow reduces turbulence through the motor structure, while refined V-Planar diaphragm control lowers distortion and improves linearity. Expect a smoother response with cleaner bass, articulate mids, and finely textured treble.

Comfort & Build

The ultralight frame and NiTinol memory-metal headband distribute clamp evenly for an almost weightless fit. Premium earpads provide a stable seal on C Flow and maximum openness on Flow 1.1—built for all-day listening.

Sound

ETHER Flow 1.1 (open): expansive stage, natural tonality, excellent imaging and air.
