More or less, yes. I use it daily from my phone, and it works great. Of course, when you connect it to a better source, you gain a bit of quality, but most TOTL earphones can't be powered directly from a phone at all. However, Omniums can be, which in my opinion, is a great advantage.

In terms of dynamics, they are very close. The low-end dynamics is almost identical, although there's a slightly better structure and presence in the Omniums. The midrange dynamics (besides how midrange is presented overall, which in my opinion is the best I have ever heard in IEMs) is way...

Alright, I know everything. So sorry for the late reply, but yesterday's meeting went on for quite a while! So, I spent a lot of time with the Mentors, and I really liked them. However, they are only slightly better in terms of imaging compared to the Omniums. Just a bit better. In every other...

I own/tried almost all IEMs from Craft Ears, and today I will meet my friend who has Mentors. I will let you know after that ;) But I must admit - Omniums are killers.

Definitely! Aurum is great with that type of music as well! Like @productred said - I still haven't found even one genre that Aurums are bad at! Gou should give them a try - you wont regret ;)

Where do you live? You should text Jed (CE Owner, - he is such a nice guy) and maybe you will figure out sth with demo units of CE6. But - IMHO as long as CE6 is a great pair of IEMs, Aurums are so much better - true TOTL for me.

Then you need Aurum. It is everything you want from IEMS, and even more ;) contact Jedrek - he is CEO of CE but also he collects new orders and communicate with customers - he is such a nice guy! He will advise with design and very likely give some small discount ;)

Yeah, I have ;) Aurum is a no-brainer in my opinion. Way higher level regarding everything (sound, bass structure, details, soundstage, depth, and so on, and those highs... man! the best EST sound ever made) than both - Argentum and fibae7. Argentum is more fun sounding, with more bass punch...

Hello guys! Maybe the photo is not the best but... damn, how that IEMs sounds! One of the greatest I have ever owned - Craft Ears Aurum. In pairing with CM Cables Dark, iFi Gryphon and powered via a balanced connection makes incredible things. Definitely TOTL that is worth trying!

Yeah! Got the same feelings. It's a shame that such great companies are overshadowed by another way bigger companies, which makes overall worse IEMs in workmanship and sound quality. Have you tried different CE earphones?

Yeah! Polish quality :D Mostly hard rock, progressive and alternative metal but from time to time something even harder. My discovery of this month is Jinjer

First of all - hello to the whole head-fi and Craft Ears community! New here, but not new in the hi-fi industry at all. I just wanted to share my thoughts regarding Aurum I received a few weeks ago (poor photo, but man... what a sound quality!) This is one of the best IEMs have ever listened...
