Description
Experience the ultimate audio performance with the AFUL Acoustics Performer 5. This IEM is equipped with the combination of a 5 hybrid-driver configuration and the latest patented technologies.
Feel the Music
Enjoy the power of 5 with the AFUL Acoustics Performer 5. It is fitted with a single custom dynamic driver that offers powerful bass while the four balanced armature drivers deliver a clear mid-range and accurate treble.
Always at the Right Frequency
The in-house developed RLC Network Frequency Division Technology allows for accurate frequency division among each of the drivers. It also corrects the non-ideal frequency response for certain frequency bands for a smooth sound without any irregularities or peaks.
No Pressure, Just Clear Sound
A high-damping air-pressure balance system releases the air pressure inside the ear canal for a comfortable listening experience. It also improves the texture of the bass. The ergonomically-designed housing further improves comfort and fit.
3D Printed for Spectacular Sound
The EnvisionTEC High-Precision 3D Printed Acoustic Tube Structure features a 60mm ultra-long and ultra-thin bass tube with a 30mm mid-bass duct structure. This maintains proper phase correction between different frequencies while delivering a spectacular bass response.
I bought Audio Ehhiku before AP5 and my only question to Pritam/TAS was, is there another set that can match or beat Ehhiku's sonic brilliance. Pritam recommended AP5 as a worthy side grade to Ehhiku. And AP5's lush, relaxed and premium tonality totally justifies this set's claim as one of the best bargain from a price to performance ratio in the 20 k price point. After significant burn-in, AP5 shines like a Diamond in the sky. Thanks Pritam and TAS for recommending this set. Cheers!!

After much deliberation between hidiz MP 145 and this i went ahead with it...and oh boy !! What should I say...I was right all along ...I mean these are fun IEM, a treat to your ears !! The sub bass and the lush vocals for desi genre music ...one word ..perfect !!!!

All i have to say is it like 300% better than my moondrop aira, and tangzu wan'er. Details in notes is just insane. I would say it worth it. It very comformtable in ear. My only nitpick is eartips which i dont find very comfy, I am currently looking for suitable eartips.
Thank you for your review! We're glad you're enjoying the AFUL Performer5 IEMs! The detailed sound and comfortable fit makes them a great choice for music lovers. We hope you find the eartips you're looking for and continue to enjoy them.
Listening for last 3 weeks after approx 150 hrs of burn in. Contrary to many online reviews which suggest that this is a bassy iem, I'm of the opinion that it sounds quite balanced (sometimes analytical) yet fun with boosted base.
Wide soundstage with accurate imaging and details.
Bass and treble very very good for the price, would have liked vocals to have little more body, still quite good (I'm really nitpicking here)..
Easy to drive with an good dongle dac (I'm using xduoo link 2 bal) , however a capable portable amp dac brings out the full potential out of these (using xduoo xd 5 plus here)
Thanks
Thank you for your review. I'm glad you're enjoying the AFUL Performer5 IEM. I think it sounds very balanced and fun, with good bass and treble. I would have liked vocals to have a little more body, but they're still good. The AFUL Performer5 IEM is easy to drive with an good dongle dac, but a capable portable amp dac brings out the full potential. Thanks for your feedback.
The Aful Performer 5 is an excellent all rounder iem that suits multiple genres of music and strikes the balance between relaxed and detailed.
The Performer 5 is built extremely well and comes with a thick well-behaved cable. It is extremely light weight and has an ergonomic design that is comfortable for me even after using it for hours at a time. The eartips that come with it are excellent for seal and comfort.
The iem consists of a dynamic driver that handles bass frequencies and 4 balanced armature drivers for the mids and treble. The Performer 5 gives out a well balanced and slightly warm presentation of music while also having plenty of resolution, making it an ideal choice for music genres like pop, indie artists, kpop, and jazz. The bass is prominent, yet clean, however can be boomy for classical and instrumental music, however i found this to be fixable using a replacement cable as the default cable seems to boost the bass quite a bit. The mids are clean, not overbearing, providing accurate replays of vocals and string instruments like guitars holding more weight and being a pleasure to listen to. The lower treble is tastefully boosted, making it energetic and sparkly, while also not being fatiguing. Soundstage using the default cable felt average and a little closed in on certain tracks, however I found using a replacement cable to make it sound very wide and more airy. I find the timbre on these iems to be far superior to most planar iems at the price range, albeit at the cost of some treble microdetails. Eartips can make a difference too, personally the bigger eartips tend to have a better seal for me.
The Aful Performer 5 is a very delightful and relaxed presentation of music, almost therapeutic, making it a worthy upgrade from 10,000 rs iems. Would definitely recommend them to someone who would like to get a hybrid iem without worrying about losing the bass dynamics of a single or dual dynamic driver.
Thanks for the review! The Aful Performer 5 is a great IEM and is great value for the price.

I carry the following items in my office bag.
1. Fiio BTR7
2. Fiio BTR7‘s type-C to type-C cable
3. Fiio BTR7‘s type-C to lightning cable
4. A 4.4mm (F) to 3.5mm (M) converter
5. Hifiman RE400
6. Type-C to 3.5mm dongle
7. Lightning to 3.5mm dongle
See the attached pictures. Earlier, I used to carry these 7 items in 2 separate cases. With this case coming in at just Rs. 250/-, I have now perfectly fit all these 7 items into one case. It’s made my life easier as i no longer have to carry and pack-unpack two separate cases each time.
I also love the fact that this case fits the Fiio BTR7 like a glove.
For me, this case has the perfect length, breadth, and more importantly width.
The case’s in-hand feel is also very good and it’s zip is super smooth.
200% recommended.
The earphones obviously are great and I just hoped to get original product as I’m ordering for first time in audio store. And the product quality is super and packaging also protects damage, I like it, I would shop at audio store to get any top branded quality product
Exactly what I was looking for my iPhone 13 Mini.
Official Apple dongle works but too thin cabled tangly one.
This one is far better form-factor & music quality wise!

I loved this cable. This was the best one available in the least price. The cable quality is supreme and order arrived on time as well.
This is my first order from the audiostore and my trust went up.
I've always enjoyed the hallmark ESS sound - resolution and instrument separation - and own a number of portable as well as desktop DACs based on various ESS chips. The RAW MDA-1 maintains that tradition but has even better imaging and soundstage IMHO. True, the sound signature of a DAC does not depend on the chip alone; the output stage design also plays a big part - and SMSL's expertise is evident here, just like in their AKM-based offerings like the Sanskrit MKII or more recently - the SU-1. Of the many albums that I used for initial impressions - want to specifically mention one - Dave Brubeck Live With The LSO. I was able to make out even the more recessed instruments and the sound was distinctly holographic - I could pinpoint location of instruments and the soundstage depth was amazing! Extremely happy with the purchase and thanks to TAS for bringing this to India so soon!
I must recommend this DAC to any alternatives out there with 3.5mm Connector.
Reason: This is very underrated DAC , it has USB audio Class 2.0, who are using UAPP ( Usb audio player pro) they will benefit from this and knows how the sound quality differs from 1.0. And only the DAC with 70mW output power this is huge in this price range. What else need more than this ? Just go for it.
Well-made versatile (balanced, single ended termination) IEM cable. In picture it may look stiff due to nylon sheathing, but in reality it is very soft and flexible cable. DUNU craftmanship on this cable is commendable.
Great iems , recommended for gaming and heavy bass music ....
For the price at these iem are you in for a party in your head. Better to use them with a DAC as more power they get the better they sound. Sound quality is👌, better than normal earphones. Great for bass heads. Also thanks to the audio store for such quick order processing , got me iems in 1 day and gift wrap (which i did not ask for or expect) kudos to them 👏!
I've been using this eartips for quite sometime now and I've been using this with the OPPO Enco X2 and I really love the fit and comfort this offers.
Plz send update the software for earbuds & more EQ mode
I am using it to connect my 4.4 mm ended cable of my IEM to my Bluetooth dac. Sound is good.
These tips saved the Final Audio A5000 for me! The overly sharp edges on most female and some male vocals, the harsh-sounding treble, and the not-so-rounded nature of sound coming out of the A5000 vanished the moment I put these tips on. I also used this with FiiO FD5, Dunu Titan S, and Meze Alba to have a nice well-rounded sound. That's what it does - it makes sound well-rounded so that the song or music that you are listening to becomes coherent across the frequency range. Perhaps the most important thing about the well-rounded sound that it provides is that you can enjoy the entire scale in your IEMs, from the lowest to the highest. In the case of the A5000, it sacrificed a bit of soundstage but at the same time provided tight and rumbly bass, natural midtones, as well as refined treble. I am surprised by the capability of these tips! And that affordable price tag is the icing on the cake! After becoming an audiophile almost a decade ago, I finally learned how to roll tips - thanks to the folks at Dunu! I would highly recommend these tips to everyone.
Smooth Sub-bass and yet neutral sounding.
