The listing title says “ETHER” but the market data points to the later “ETHER 2,” so the A$1,300 price is hard to benchmark without confirming the exact model. If this is the original Ether (2014–2016), A$1,300 is ambitious given that the ETHER 2—its successor—has sold used around A$1,200 (from $800 USD) and is listed new at A$5,800 (from $3,795 USD); an original Ether at this price would need pristine condition and full accessories to justify it. If it’s an ETHER 2, A$1,300 is a strong deal, well below the typical used range of A$1,450–A$1,750 (from $1,000–$1,200 USD).
Assuming it’s the ETHER 2, you’re getting Dan Clark’s flagship planar with V‑Planar drivers and TrueFlow damping, known for effortless dynamics, tight bass, and a wide, open sound that scales with quality amps. The upside is timing: new ETHER 2s sit near A$5,800, so a clean, original‑owner unit at A$1,300 is a rare bargain. Only flag caveats if the listing hides wear, missing the VIVO cable or box, or shows age‑related pad/cord issues; otherwise, treat this as a buying opportunity.
