Introduction:
64 Audio has been a personal favorite of mine, with the U12t, U18s, Trio, and Fourte IEMs holding a special place in my audio collection. The anticipation surrounding the release of the Volur IEM had me eagerly awaiting its arrival at The Audio Store. Today, I share my initial impressions in this first look blog, offering a glimpse into the unboxing, design, and the unparalleled sound experience of the Volur.
Unboxing Experience:
The unboxing experience mirrors the quality of other 64 Audio IEMs. Inside the box, you'll find a pair of Volur IEMs, a 64 Audio stock cable, three sets of different-sized eartips, a 4U Apex module (featuring the limited-time M12 gold module as a gift), a shirt clip, a cleaning tool, and two 64 Audio stickers.
Design and Build:
The Volur IEM shares the universal 64 Audio shell size, with a matte black shell and a stunning faceplate in shades of purple. The combination of colors makes it the standout faceplate in the entire 64 Audio universal lineup.
Sound Experience:
Equipped with the stock cable, M15 Apex module, wide bore stock eartips, and Sony NW-ZX707 DAP during my first listening session, the Volur didn't disappoint.
-
Bass: The bass performance is nothing short of mind-blowing. It combines the highest quantity without compromising on quality, providing a physical sensation that reverberates through your forehead. The warm tone adds an extra layer of immersion, setting a new benchmark in 64 Audio's lineup.
-
Midrange: While the midrange takes a slightly backward stance due to the V-shaped sound tuning, it doesn't lack in weight or clarity. Both male and female vocals shine, delivering excellent performance without a hint of sharpness or harshness. The ability to reproduce micro-details adds an element of surprise, making each listening session engaging.
-
Treble: The treble is crisp, well-rounded, and musical, reminiscent of the U12t treble section. Its natural and realistic tonality creates an immersive experience, with layering and detailing that rival full-size headphones.
-
Soundstage: The soundstage, dependent on the Apex module used, surpasses that of the Trio and approaches the Fourte. Experimenting with the four Apex modules reveals noticeable changes in soundstage and bass, a topic to be explored in depth in the upcoming detailed review.
Conclusion:
During my first listening session, the Volur captivated my attention entirely. The isobaric driver implementation truly sets it apart from other high-end IEMs at The Audio Store. I look forward to delving deeper into its nuances in our upcoming in-depth review.
