    AÜR AUDIO IEMs

    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...

    I don't think I am part of a VIP list, not that I know of, even though I do find Nicholas a very nice and sincere person, ha... I don't even own that many Aur audio IEMs. I also ordered blind and took the leap of faith on the opening day. However, I was FOMO and did order quite early.

    I agree, the cable is not microphonic unlike similar looking ones from PW Audio.

    Both Aurora and Ascension are not difficult to drive. I have tried Cayin C9 on both too, I think the quality of music is just as great driving both directly through the DAPs. One thing I observed was I actually adjusted to a lower volume number when I used Ascension compared to Aurora, so I...

    Hi, sorry I have not heard Aure nor NP before, so my only comparison is with Aurora. For Ascension's fit, based on my observation, it has the same size and shape as the Aurora. I have no issue with the comfort and fit. And yes, it has a vent as seen in the photo.

    Nicholas mentioned that he will shipping out the 1st batch on Monday (which is tomorrow based on my country's time). The stock cable provided is the same as Aurora's which matches both iems quite well. The cable is also very soft and comfortable.

    I just returned from overseas yesterday and asked Nicholas today if I could collect from his house, the Aurora I sent for servicing earlier (for channel imbalance issue). To my pleasant surprise, he said the shipment of Ascension just arrived late last night and I could collect the Ascension...

    I think sometimes it is about finding the right synergy with the gear. I just received the Aurora 5 days ago and I am very satisfied with it even when I compared it with my other much more expensive IEMs. While my Tansio Mirai Rgb matches very well with Cayin N8 and not so well with RS8, the...

    I am currently using 100. I think with more bass, the whole frequency range is more balanced.

    Tansio Mirai Impressions Thread

    I absolutely agree with Dsnuts on pairing Tansio Mirai RGB with a right cable. I have gotten the RGB for around 3 weeks and experimented RGB with various cables like Effect Audio Code 23, Code 51, PW First Times Shielding cables. All of them have made significant improvement over the stock cable...

    I recently tried the canal work ear tips https://www.amazon.co.jp/-/en/CWU-GECL-Eartips-Isolating-Prevent-Enhanced/dp/B0991RL358 and found them an excellent fit to my Red Halo. More treble, making the iem sounds clearer; bass is strong and mid remains as good as before. They have been...

    HiBy RS8 flagship Darwin R2R Android DAP -- Class A -- news and impressions thread

    I went to audition Cayin N8ii for the 3rd time 2 days ago, but still ended up preferring my Red Halo on my old Cayin N8. Then without much expectation, I tried RS8, thinking it should be less suitable. Surprisingly, I very much enjoyed the Red Halo with RS8 and when I tried my Turii Ti (on...

    Softears - Discussion & Appreciation

    I am finding Shanling M8 an excellent match for Turii Ti. M8's strong bass, emotional mid and smooth treble complements Turii Ti very nicely. Much better than the Cayin N8 and Ibasso dx228ex which I also own.
