Shure AONIC 4 Sound Isolating Earphones Black

The Shure Aonic 4 are premium IEMs with an amazing sound quality that exemplify Shure's excellent products and burgeoning ecosystem. The neutral sound signature is supported with excellent bass and separation that gives music clarity and fun. You're able to combine these with Shures Bluetooth adapter to make the quintessential pair of gym earbuds. Overall, worth the price and I'll he interested to see what's next for Shure.

Sound is realistic with a good solid sound isolation, paired with my LG V60's Quad DAC I find myself listening long hours with little to no fatigue. It comes with a circular travel case. Nice packaging. If headphones are a bit cumbersome to your lifestyle, you can't go wrong with these. The additional $100 upgrade to the AONIC 5, I'd recommend yo take it.#Sweepstakes

Of late there is a trend of users opting for Chinese manufacturers due to better value to price ratio. In the past i have tried some of these renowned brands such as Vsonic, Shangling, 1more. The build quality in these earphones were pathetic, vsonic gr07 which some still consider to be really good was built like something a first grader would build out of clay. The plastic wasn't even molded properly and when i would stick them in they would poke my ears. The shangling tws were also horrible, the case was flimsy, the buds would never pair and it seems like it was built with some pathetic quality of plastic.Having bashed the above chinese brands, i come to Shure.

The plastic wasn't even molded properly and when i would stick them in they would poke my ears. The shangling tws were also horrible, the case was flimsy, the buds would never pair and it seems like it was built with some pathetic quality of plastic.Having bashed the above chinese brands, i come to Shure. The shure SE215 have been my go to earphones for exercise, casual listening, travelling and every possible use. I have been very rough with them, my dog had a go at them but they still worked like a charm. Over 7 years I used two of them, both lasted about the equal time. I have also tried the RHA t20, but they were not to my liking, too bulky, poor sound signature and irritating cable. So when i was looking to invest in a new pair of IEMs and noticed that Shure had launched the aonic series, they caught my eye.Firstly the price, they retail for about 300 USD, which converted is 21k INR, including takes and import they should cost easily 30k. But they are roughly the same 300 USD price, this is always a nice sign. Secondly the fit for me is classic shure, absolutely perfect sealing. in fact these block out more noise than sonys noise cancelling 1000mx3 both in ear and over ear. Cant hear traffic/bus/train rides with these on. Then comes the sound, Shure are supposed to be balanced but these ones have a lot of Bass, I am not sure if its the price range that makes the earphone quality at another level or its just these pair. It is so clearly evident when you listen to "In the air tonight" by Phil Collins as the transition to heavy bass is slow and evident. Coming to vocals take the song "Ik Onkar", voice is extremely clear and feels you are in the studio itself.The final test is "Maggot Brain" by Funkadelic, the playback is flawless, the transition from highs to the lows is epic.My only regret is not going for the Aonic 5 due to price constraints.(PS i am using these with apple music loseless and earman eagle DAC)
