AÜR AUDIO IEMs
Some may already perceive it as bass head level, but I remember comparing IT07 to several true bass head level IEMs and it's still far from it. But it is definitely boosted and due to its stronger magnet, the way it reverberates is top notch and satisfying. Nevertheless, it is still musical and...- anyone007

AÜR AUDIO IEMs
I was actually hoping that it's at least around the bass quantity of IT07's, not basshead level but it's extremely satisfying due to how good and musical it is. I'm still excited though how it will sound.- anyone007

AÜR AUDIO IEMs
I'm a little bit sad knowing that Ascension's bass quantity is lesser than Aurora. Even Abel confirmed it when I sent him a message. "Aurora's bass has a stronger impact than Ascension's, and Ascension's bass is softer. The bass feature of the Ascension is in terms of texture rather than...- anyone007

Good thing I'm not the only one. lol I love Penon and their tuning is great. It just so happened that I own a better sounding IEM (but a few dollars more) that almost has the same tuning as the 10th (IT07). It was quite a let down to be honest. But again, it's just a subjective opinion and like...- anyone007

It's hard being spoilt by Volt and Aurora. My nit-picking with vocals are now a notch higher. Probably the reason why I'm waiting for further review of DTE900. And now another wait period for the new tribrid and 4 DD.- anyone007

Thanks! You nailed the sound profile of Aurora and Volt, and good thing I'm still hearing it objectively even my bias with vocals. lol I can already imagine the sound profile of Butastur but I'll skip it. I just can't survive without DD. I'm not sure if I missed reading it or anything, but by...- anyone007

Interesting. Most of my music are J-pop and Aurora's execution is perfect for the genre. Happy ears. lol Looking forward for your DTE900 review. I hope you can include Aurora with the comparison. Thanks!- anyone007

I'm also curious as I have Aurora and Volt and both of them are tied as my top vocals. The only difference is Volt's mids is more forward, fuller and lusher. Quality wise, they're the same imho.- anyone007

AÜR AUDIO IEMs
I totally agree that IT07 didn't received that much attention that it deserved. The overall tuning is great and hard to dislike anything. Most of my nit-pick is more on tuning preference, I prefer a lusher, fuller, thicker and smooth midrange/vocals plus a bit smoother, rounded, and a more...- anyone007

Done with the 200 hours burning time of Aurora and currently enjoying its musical bliss. I had high expectations with Aurora and the brand itself due to its positive reviews and impressions and I gotta join the bus. I've been spoiled by Penon's house sound for quite some time and made my other...- anyone007

Just of out curiosity, do you guys don't mind cable rolling all the time? I mean... the sockets are going to get loose with sheer frequency of attaching and detaching right? I have a lot of cables and I keep the rolling as less as I could. Maybe I'm just paranoid. lol- anyone007

I think this is how I originally imagined Volt's bass and sub bass supposedly. Somehow I'm having a clear understanding how the Aurora sounds. Based on the description though, I assume that Aurora is closer sounding to EST50? Especially on the sub bass area?- anyone007

So I'm done with the 500 hours IEM burn for 10th AE. The grain I'm hearing on the upper mids and highs disappeared, it's a lot smoother and refined now. The sub and mid bass is a lot more controlled and tighter with a quicker decay. The most improved is the highs. It's more airy, refined and...- anyone007

Darn, I'm guessing I am listening to a higher volume compared to others. I find the 10th AE's "S" and "Sh" a bit sibilant when I turn the volume up to my preferred listening level, which never happens to EST50, Serial, and Volt.- anyone007

A favour please. Not sure if I missed it but can somebody please make a comparison of Volt and Neon Pro? And probably in the future, 10th AE and Aurora? I'm considering Aur Audio as well. Thanks!- anyone007

Sometimes I imagine if Penon will make an IEM that has the features of their different lines. Bass = 10th AE Mids = Volt/Impact Highs = not sure which is the best, probably Impact? Tonality and Timbre = Of course Serial's warm vintage tonality and analogue timbre I guess if that happens...- anyone007

I understand where you're coming from. Fair enough.

This may not be applicable to all or something you should believe in, but most people here do it. I don't have Fan2 but I have the Serial, 10th, and Volt. I can at least share my experience with Volt. After 500 hours (yeah, it's very long) of straight burn-in, there's a substantial change on...- anyone007

So, I just received my 10th AE. Okay, fine. I'm gonna join the ride, it is really good out of the box. I lowered my expectation since again, I'm not a fan of V-shaped IEMs and I had bad history with them. lol I was expecting a "distant" vocals since majority of the so called v-shaped is almost...- anyone007

This thread is messing up my finances. lol I'm reading quite a lot of good stuff with ISN EST50 and I think I'm willing to take a blind buy. From what I'm hearing, it's like the smaller brother of Volt with an exceptional sub bass. But I'm tempted to take a shot with the 10th, but I'll wait for...- anyone007

This is what I'm looking for! Thanks for checking! If it's just a hair difference and a touch faster decay on the sub compared to IT07, this will hit the mark for my taste.

I'll patiently wait first for the impressions. I know there's a lot of theory about sub bass reproduction and such, but I'm hoping that Penon will pull a miracle.
