  Just posted my thoughts on the 2.5 in the HeadGear section - as with all noob reviews, please take it all with a pinch of salt and let me know what I'm doing wrong (already working on adding photos)!

Great review again! I really enjoyed it.
 
I'd better get that Rockets review of mine up before you beat me to it

no problem....i went for the Harmony...should arrive tommarrow (if we get unburried in southwest Michigan)

Everyone seems to be going for the harmony - no love for the Forte's. The review of the Forte's by @Koolpep was much appreciated. Still unsure of which way to go. I wish there were more reviews.
 
Snowing in Michigan?? 41 degrees C yesterday at Lake Maquarie  - a 6 pack of 500ml Heineken's did help however.

Just had to be that hot when moving - still, as you can see, there is a pub close by!!

The Forte are the next pair of AS on my wish list to try as well, really liked the sound of that review. If anyone knows any good links for sale or trades going on them please post on here - might have some new ASG-1Plus up for trade in a week or two if anyone fancies a swap?

Greetings, all^^
 
Proper Aurisonics fan here, having heard ASG1.5, ASG2.5, and Kickers thus far and with a AS2.5 order on the way (cheers, Andy!).
 
Love the house sound and the gnarliest bass I've ever heard in IEMs of any type-- enough, in fact, that I have switched away from full-size cans almost entirely (except when needed for mastering/playing out etc).
 
Much respect to those who love Dale & Co's work!

What color/options did you go with on the AS-2.5? I went with clear smoke gray body, clear red faceplate, and ambient port/dial.

Clear housing / clear logo / ambient port / MMCXi connector swap; Getting antsy!
 
I see you're in the Queen City-- great place =) I'm in Asheville, but I get out your way a few times yearly.
 
Interested to see how the ambient port will fare when I use these for recording vocals for sure.

Nice review-- makes me want to get the Rockets as my 'wear and tear' pair even more than I did before, no doubt.

Nice! I wanted something a little showy but not chrome or anything. I already have a pair of brushed nickel ASG-2.5 :) By clear logo do you mean faceplate? Andy never mentioned the logo specifically. I like the connector swap idea as well, I didn't even know that was an option. For me I didn't like the way the single pin connectors can spin freely as it felt like that would wear down the connector over time.

I actually chose to omit the faceplate, which would result in an embossed 'AS' logo being on the surface of the shell. Usually, this is painted black or red if not hidden by the faceplate entirely, but I asked for it to be left completely clear such that the whole unit is 'ghostly'.
 
The MMCXi swap was something I requested for greater interoperability with cables that I already possessed-- also cool that the Bravo series and later all use them, so when and if I try other models I can just use the same cable (Linum BaX and Super BaX).
