    Indeed, technology and innovation are changing fast. My wish list for the next Aur Audio iem will be them exploring planar driver or multi-DD or open-back iem.

    After burning in for more than 100 hours, the Aehta has definitely become more coherent and natural. It is also more apparent that bass lovers should be happy with Aehta's bass quantity and quality. Despite the stronger bass, the bass doesn't bleed into the mid and one can still enjoy Aur...

    If anyone is worried about the comfort of Aehta due to the increased in number of drivers and size, I personally feel that Aehta is the more comfortable iem compared to Ascension and Aurora. Despite being being thicker, the iem has a smaller area and fit the ear with more allowance. I can...

    Effect audio Cadmus Founder's Edition. Aehta also sounds very good with Athena cable, but I prefer the Cadmus FE providing the extra weight and body to be sound. I also tried EOH, while the mid sounds sweeter, the bass seems to lose its impact and precision. I personally like Aehta with hybrid...

    Collected my Aehta yesterday from Nicholas. Took the leap of faith as usual ordering from Nicholas when the Aehta was revealed. Having said that, when Nicholas said I will definitely like the Aehta when I met him yesterday, I was thinking why was he so sure since he may not even know what I...

    I also ordered one. Given how much I enjoy my Ascension and UM Red Halo (with BCD), it is too hard to resist getting a iem with BCD from Aur audio at a reasonable price. Furthermore, the Aehta's drivers and switches seem to cover all grounds. Hopefully with Abel's tuning, it can still be very...

    Excellent review! I agree with many points which you mentioned. I have to admit that I didn't listen to Aurora that much after getting it in July as I felt that my other iems sound better and more enjoyable than Aurora. On the other hand with Ascension, I don't feel that it is losing out to my...

    I agree that Ascension has a W shaped signature, very balanced. The bass for me is great and ample, in fact when I paired Ascension with a silver cable, I find the mid bass a bit too strong for me and distracted me from the vocal music. I also think that while the soundstage is not as big as my...

    For my own experience, while it is harder to fit the eartips into the Ascension due to its larger nozzle, I still managed to fit all the eartips I have. I didn't experience Spinfit W1 popping out, lucky for me. In comparison, I have more problems fitting eartips into my Tansio RGB.

    No fit issue with nozzle for me, but then I have never experienced issue with nozzle before.

    Dear all, after making a more thorough comparison with the Aurora, I realised was wrong when I said both are of same size and shape. Based on my observation and from the pictures, the Ascension is slightly bigger than the Aurora. It also has a shorter but thicker nozzle. My apologies for making...

    I am a believer of cables though I don't believe that more expensive cables necessary sound better with the iems I have. Very often like all the other parts of the chain including DAPs, eartips and sometime external amps, it is about finding the right match. While I agree that some cables are...

    My favourite iem currently is Tansio Miarai RGB with Eletech Project 8 Socrate cable. I also enjoy listening to my UM Red Halo FE, Softears Turii Ti and Aur Audio Aurora. The only iem I didn't enjoy that much and sold away was Empire Odin (I think my ears couldn't take the excess upper mid). At...

    After spending more time with Ascension, I feel that it reminds me of my DNA Stratus amp. It may not give me the most details, but yet there is never a time I crave for more details with Ascension. Like the Status amp, Ascension has the same ability to suck you into the music with its highly...
