"AROMA-Jewel" is the crystallization of AROMA Audio's pursuit of the ultimate gorgeous sound. In addition, its voice matches the word "gorgeous". As a consequence, we name it "AROMA-Jewel", which is as gorgeous as a gem.
It is characterized by magnificence and high penetration power. After a long period of research and development, it finally decided the configuration of 6 electrostatic drivers, 6 balanced Armature drivers and one 9.2mm dynamic driver. "AROMA-Jewel" has magnificent, penetrating sound and broad sound field. In addition, the characteristics of the three units are all brought into play to the extreme and combined.
The electrostatic and moving coil units among the three units of "AROMA-Jewel" are independently developed by AROMA Audio because of AROMA Audio's endless pursuit of sound, bringing the best sound to users.
The high-frequency and even ultra-high-frequency performance of multiple electrostatic units seems to be unlimited. Besides, the lines feel clear and bright. The 9.2mm moving coil unit brings excellent diving depth, dynamics and air sense at low frequency to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the overall sound. When the moving iron unit is used as a connecting role to connect the sound of the electrostatic unit and the moving coil unit, the performance of the moving iron unit in the intermediate frequency is also very clear and bright, coherent and natural, with dense sound density and a clear sense of hierarchy.

For those who don't want intermediate steps and relative loss of money, I recommend pointing directly to these (if you are looking for the best analytical IEMs) or on the Trailli (if you are looking for the best IEMs with analog sound). I preferred these to enjoy all the dap/dacs I have and discover the differences in their sonic signature. Good music to all.
Everything else is going to be a side-grade after the Jewel. My previous favorite iem was the UM Indigo but the Jewel is easily a tier above. I would say the Jewel is a mildly mid-centric sound signature with excellent sub-bass. The mids are clear and smooth, with precise spacing and detail across the entire range of frequencies so every sound has room to come through without compromise. The vocals for both male and female voices are very honest and revealing of the actual recording without coloration. And when I focus on listening to the bass it's some of the best bass I've heard, yet it doesn't dominate and it exists in its own space. When the song has strong bass notes the Jewel's dynamic driver can do any heavy lifting required with grace and high-resolution. Treble is stellar too, never too bright or dialed up, always accurate. I think the Jewel strikes a brilliant technical balance between power and control. It quite beautifully handles complex classical music, electronic music, voice and guitar, even 90s rap and every genre I've tried with it, always revealing rather than accentuating the recording.
Still breaking in with Venom cable. despite the lack of breakin hours, the Jewel sings better than any of my top tier IEMs. It needs 150 hours to sound its best , but only has around 70 at this point.
Suitable for almost all types of music，The midrange and bass is absolutely top-notch。Definitely my top 3
At first, I was amazed by the beautifully integrated treble range played by the 6 ESTs.
I was intoxicated by the vocals, which were easy to hear every detail in the solid mid-range.
I was incontinent at the end with the heavy bass melody that came up from the depths.
So far I can't find any flaw in the sound.
I own virtually all the TOTL iems, and I have never heard one as detailed and moving as the PMG APX SE. The bass thumps, the treble glistens, the soundstage is all over and the definition amongst instruments is the best I have heard. It is my clear favorite now.
First, I must tell that I am not an audiophile, just a music enthusiast. Owning only headphones wanted to give a try to IEMs since I am always on the go. This being my first IEM, wanted to invest in something good so after searching in this price range and reading multiple reviews, decided to go for the Softears Enigma.
Photographs don’t give enough credit; this set is gorgeous and elegant. Engaging, without being extremely striking, so I can listen to my music while I wear suit at work or jeans on the street. But, above all, the sound. Enigma just blowout my mind. Fantastic for my taste: beautifully balance, with good clarity, detail, separation and expanded soundstage. And in the center of all that, the magic of that vocal tuning. Some audiophiles find Enigma treble recessed, not for me: everything is there in the right amount and when music asks for a stronger performance, they become energetic. And add to that excellent comfort.
I pair them with iBasso DX320MAX Ti, Mojo 2 and Lotoo PAW GT2.
I am very happy with them and grateful with Andrew and his team.
Being a lover of Dita Audio products, I was intrigued by this unknown Singapore IEM. Its drivers setup looked interesting and let me overlook the shiny steampunk-like like look I am not a fan of. With the very kind and soft assistance from MusicTeck's mrs. Grace, some fine reviews of Jomo Audio products, I decided to try it.
Well it is very good. I love acoustic music, jazz classics from the '40s to' 70s mainly. This is a fine IEM on a technical revealing side of soumd. I love Nautilus detailed and airy mids and highs the most but the bass is almost perfect too, authoritative and textured. The soundstage wide and perfectly arranged. Thank you Jomo Audio (and MusicTeck for the friendly Assistance).
The driver set up in the BGVP Phantom SE makes its price all the more amazing. Double DD's AND double BC's with a BA from Sonion AND one from Knowles. Pretty sick. And may I just say....the sound is unique and extremely loveable! The way the Phanton SE layers notes within the stage is amazing. Right to left stereo is phenomenal. They've conjured up a tuning that sort of redefines sound stage as I define it. It's well balanced from mid-bass all the way up through the treble which extends to the moon. The lowend sub bass is satisfying good rumble and mid bass punches very well. On occasion when the low end is really called up Phantom SE can BRING THE THUNDER.
The cable it comes with also quite and nice and seems extravagant for a $1099 set. I'm really quite enjoying mine. The heat color change is a cool little addition as well and works great! Well done BGVP!
I love this dap , for a while I was thinking to utilize my old lg v30 as dap but I was not happy with limited ability to customize sound . This R4 has eq and mseb and I can taylor sound exactly the way I like it . Hiby music app is great but you can use any android media player in it . I also like that I can watch Youtube videos with it . I loaded 512gb micro sd card with few hundreds albums in flac and some in mp3 and everything works great . Balanced output works great and I had no problem driving my lsa hp2 headphones with it . I use 3.5mm output with campfire atlas and Im very happy with sound Im getting . Some users reported overheating but I guess they have early production models because mine never get hot only slightly warm over couple hours of use .
