A great review of the Aur Aurora:


I've had these for about a month now and can say without reservation that they are one of my favorite IEMs out there. They are a hybrid, featuring six balanced armatures and TWO dynamic drivers. They have a warm and smooth signature, with a lot of resolution while still maintaining slightly soft note edges, with a tasteful dash of air and brightness. It is a VERY nice combo.

For fans of vocals, these really should be on your short list. Both male and female vocals are equally excellent(unlike a lot of IEMs where one or the other is a bit better), not too thick not too thin, with a mad scientist mixture of warmth and sweetness. Not to mention excellent natural timbre and tonality.

The two dynamics drivers for bass are really putting in some work. It isn't the most as far as quanity goes, but the quality is awesome. They sound pretty linear from sub-bass to mid-bass, and have great sub-bass rumble, texture, impact, and agility. It's very addicting.

They are also pretty spacious with accurate imaging and nice separation(not Z1R level but better than most). I've seen people use the term "romantic" for certain headphones over the years and these absolutely fit that bill to me, and they're one of the few IEMs that sometimes give me that "warm and fuzzy" I-think-I'm-falling-in-love feeling when listening to music with them.

I doubt there is much stuff better in Aurora's price range($580), and I would for sure take them over several more expensive IEMs. They are very musical and absolutely dripping with "special sauce" to me.
