Aune AC55 Open-Back Clip-On Headphones Reference

https://www.head-fi.org/showcase/aune-ac55.28755/reviews

In conclusion, Aune Audio has decided to revive a bygone design/trend: clip-on headphones that were (perhaps) so popular in the 1990s and 2000s. Obviously, the Aune AC55s incorporate several improvements; a similar result would not have been possible. Although they aren’t extremely technical headphones, they’re still perfect if you simply want to enjoy good music. The treble is very smooth but still manages to convey an excellent level of detail, the mids are like chocolate, and even the bass is particularly good due to its open design. The Aune AC55 clip headphones are definitely among my all-time favorite audio weapons.

When I want to enjoy a warm, musical, and emotionally charged listening experience, and above all, a low-pressure session, these are the absolute best choice. Of course, if someone is around, they might hear what you’re listening to. When you turn up the volume (which happens easily), the sound pressure level causes the driver excursion, making the headphones move a little on your ears, letting you feel their full power. I remember that even the ones I used years ago would vibrate in my ears when I turned up the volume. These are obviously not headphones I’d use for sports or running because they’re stable but not fixed like headband headphones.

These are a must have in anyone's collection of those who aren't tunnel-visioned and only interested in one segment of our branched hobby or those that have a very particular tonality in mind as the single correct one. AC55's convincing tonality that is not only meaty but so delicate as well is a thing to behold. It is indeed the sort of playback that allows one to see the full picture as well as all strokes individually. Seeing the forest in all its beauty as well as all individual trees that form it. If only there was a similar thing going on in our current state of world affairs where we saw and acknowledged each other and strove toward the overall well-being … but I digress. Get yourself a pair of AC55's and detach your mind from all worries.
