Many electrostatic headphones make a "zip" sound when the headphone is put on or removed. This is the sound of the charged driver touching the stator, and due to the electric fields, sticking briefly to it before releasing. Due to VOCE's very large driver size the driver may be more prone to this than some other electrostatic headphones. As the stator is insulated this will not cause damage to the driver, and should be considered normal operation. ETHER® headphones are not about having the best bass, mids, or highs, they're about delivering a convincing experience. The goal is to NOT emphasize any part of the spectrum, but rather to have it blend together to form an organic whole.
