Dan Clark Audio E3 Closed-Back Planar Magnetic Headphones
E3 is Dan Clark Audio's high-performance closed-back planar magnetic headphone, bringing much of the brand's flagship technology into a more accessible model. It uses a fifth-generation planar magnetic driver, Acoustic Metamaterial Tuning System and a compact closed-back design to deliver serious listening quality without needing a dedicated listening room.
For many hi-fi enthusiasts, E3 is the sweet spot in the range. It gives you isolation, proper planar speed and a more open-feeling presentation than you would normally expect from a closed-back headphone. It is ideal for desktop systems, evening listening, shared spaces and anyone who wants a high-end headphone that is easier to live with day to day.

TAE Specialist Note
E3 is the one we would show customers who want a serious closed headphone but do not want to jump straight to STEALTH. It still benefits from a good amplifier and DAC, but it is a very strong everyday high-end headphone.
