The Mini Semi-Closed (Mini S) is our hybrid-acoustic headphone — the clarity and spaciousness of an open back with the impact and black background of a closed one. It gives you the desired effect of a studio-grade recording while eliminating outside noise distractions, all in the same compact, folding travel design as the rest of the Mini line.

- Hybrid acoustics — the best of both worlds: open-back clarity and spaciousness with closed-back impact and a black background

Reviews
“It's everything I want a 650 to be.” — TylersEclectic
“The Mini S is a semi-open design that often comes with associated usually ‘better’ sonic qualities: snappier transient response, more spacious headstage, improved responsiveness to small signals, etc. ... This one to me is a home run.” — Marv, SBAF
“If you like a very balanced, cohesive, natural sound, these are a great choice.” — carlman
“Eta Mini S made short work of Senn HD 25 Light with Yaxi Alcantara pads and 580 BS. Nicely tuned across the entire freq response. More punch, slam, and overall energy than A Classic. Initial impression is that they could compete with dynamic driver headphones up to $1500.” — Bpcarb
“These are two very engaging headphones (my tastes obviously) and though one might outperform the other in different areas (A more slam wider headstage, Mini S better extension snappier transients), I found the enjoyment to be much closer than the price delta might suggest. For my money the Mini S is where I would spend my money for a sub $500 headphone. That's why I did. If it's at all possible I'd suggest getting ears on a Mini S if you're in the market for a headphone in the $500 price range.” — Jinxy245
