Looks like Nic is watching he just made announcement on fb on this. Allusion seems like back to drawing board.... not anytime soon

I could not tolerate the treble for either Anni21 nor Anni23 so unable to make a good comparison. Mids are the highlight of Ascension and that is what CP622 is lacking (recessed).

Does the dac gives a 4.4mm balanced output?

The warranty period is indeed on the lower end compared to established big brands but the conditions are largely in line with other brands as well just that they are specific. In the end if you are uncomfortable you can choose not to buy.

Aehta treble is more controlled than NP

Alter Ego has a more refined tuning compared to Glacier. However it costs 50% more....

While i agree on NP's energy vs Aurora, I have to beg to defer on the muddiness. None of Aur iems have any "muddiness" in the sound. I get that you like treble energy but I fear NP is the only one in the range to have the treble you desire. On another note, having tame treble does not...

Good luck with your sale but suggest to promote in IMR thread instead 😉.

Treble ok for me, my hearing up to 14kHz

Definitely more pronounced due to increased treble and more energetic tuning

Now that the Aehta has burn in for more than 100hrs some impression to follow. The new custom BA seems to have improved the note definition, every note seems to be extra precise including vocals. No blurred edges its super resolution. Using bass off, mids and treble on.

I auditioned Cantor ytd, its probably as bright as a SUV hi-beaming you. The Dunu Da Vinci seems enjoyable though with the boosted bass and treble

Some size comparisons Aurora left Aehta right

After burning for 24 hrs, i would say stage size is similar or larger than aurora/ascension shape to be determined. Staging is highly dependent on cable used in my case is toxic blackwidow XL. Imaging is precise, for orchestra music sounds like a small concert hall. My pick for switches will be...

I agree that KA17 although powerful did not click with me due to lack of musicality and rough edges. For ESS dongle my go to is still T71.

I think since the iem is fresh what you experienced is real time burn in. Can try all sources again after 100 hrs and see if the difference is great between the sources.

Not yet now. Will get back

I also just got the chance to listen to Aehta and agree that if you want to have a subbass monster Aur this is the one to get.

Its Chinese Time Audio "cardas clear light"

I use my Miroak 2 with mmcx to 2 pin adapter.

Regret is for sleepless nights, I buy whatever Aür is selling just because I trust Abel's tuning and so far every iem gives different feels.

Exhales

Seems like I need to hold my breath

Aurora is criminally under appreciated... 😢
