#114 Dan Clark Audio Ether C Flow 1.1 Discontinued eBay

Pros: Measured response gives it an excellent Harman preference score of 81 with a 2.03 dB spread. Bass sits close to target and holds down to 20 Hz, so low end sounds full without bloat. It uses 1 x 71 x 45mm planar magnetic with an easy 23 ohm load.

Cons: Discontinued, so it is mainly found used. Treble sits about 3.8 dB low, so it sounds a little dark.
