Auglamour is a lot like Kinera. They make good looking shells but dont make anything that is substantial sounding. Just because they are using Electrostatic drivers dont mean much. In fact I am thinking it will only be a matter of time before some Chinese manufacturer reverse engineers Sonion Est drivers and make a cheaper version.

If it hasn't happened already. In any case. Who knows maybe they will bring out something worth chatting about.

Have not. My problem is I have too many earphones and not enough time during the month to listen to them all. Lol. But hey why not get into your earphones. This is the time to do it.

So many outstanding earphones on the market right now. ISN D02, Mofasest Trio, and I have the NM2+ in my ears. No rule for how many earphones a person can love right? Variety is the spice of life.

I once owned Auglamour's first IEM. The sound was just bad. It's bass was so muddy I could barely hear the vocals. Never bought anything from them since then.

There is a lot of upstart Chinese companies and probably new ones starting every month. I know there is a large factory. Perhaps several large factories that makes earphones and headphones. Made to order.

Where most of the vendors from Aliexpress gets their stuff. Change the shell with your logo and slap on a name and you got a company.

i love my Hiby. The Cowon sits.
Next ali sale I'm going to get an R5 since my R6 pro is essentially tethered to the power outlet. The fact that you can get a device like the R5 brand new during Ali sales for about $240 is absurd and blows my mind.

I wonder what kind of single DD IEM this is going to be. It's a soon to be released product from Simphonio Audio according to the post.
