64 Audio

64 Audio has been around the audio scene for over twelve years already. They began their journey as 1964 Ears but have renamed themselves to 64 Audio in the meantime.

The company was founded by Vitaliy Belonozkho and during the process of the company’s success many brothers of the Belonozkho family have joined Vitaliy. Although it has to be noted, that some of them also have left the brand in order to realize their own visions.

Since their creation 64 Audio has kept pushing the envelope with new technologies. They introduced their tia drivers, which are openly radiating balanced armature drivers. Aside from that, they also introduced LID (Linear Impedance Design) and apex. LID basically sets an almost linear impedance curve throughout the entire frequency range, while apex helps mitigate ear-fatigue with a viscoelastic open-cell foam to control the rate at which air can pass through the vent. This is an open module that eliminates pneumatic pressure that builds up in an otherwise closed room.

64 Audio’s main focus clientele-wise however is not necessarily audiophile based. They work with many renowned artists, such as Alanis Morissette, Beyonce, John Mayer, Nathan East, Black Eyed Peas or Bon Jovi. Just to name a few.

Their product range goes from the A2e dual drivers up to the whopping 18 driver A18t and A18s.

One thing that sets 64 Audio apart from the competition, is their all tube-less IEMs. They were the first to ever launch an IEM that did not use a single tube in it. This specific IEM has been sitting at the top of their lineup ever since its introduction – of course you know I am speaking about the all mighty Tia Fourté! An IEM that still holds up to its competition, even though it has been launched almost eight years ago. How time flies.

In today’s review we will check out the all new Volur – the successor of 64 Audio’s Nio universal IEM.

Volur

The Volur is 64 Audio’s latest hybrid universal In Ear Monitor and the direct successor of their Nio, which was well regarded for its powerful bass and smooth mids.

Volur however, is 64 Audio’s first true isobaric model, which uses two dynamic drivers in a push-pull configuration. Although 64 Audio did not face them towards each other, but rather in an aligned implementation.

The driver setup is as follows:
Two dynamic drivers for lows. Six balanced armature drivers for mids. One balanced armature driver for upper mids. And a single tia driver for highs. The tia driver now uses a new technology to further shape the tuning and direct the sound to your eardrums.

Volur of course also uses 64 Audio’s proprietary technologies such as apex, LID and tia.

Package

The overall package of the Volur is very nice.

The IEM comes in a sturdy and moderately big box. In the box you’ll find the Volur displayed in the bottom half of its leather carrying case. The Volur comes supplied with all of 64 Audio’s apex modules, except for the orange (closed) one. So you will have the option to module-roll with the M20, M15, M12 and MX. Each module will give you different variations of isolation and a new flavor of bass tuning. With the M20 being the most isolating and most bass heavy.

On top of the modules and leather carrying case, you will get a selection of different silicone and foam ear-tips. 64 Audio includes three pairs of CP145 (if I remember correctly) Spinfit eartips, which I find to be the most comfortable out of the bunch.

Then you’ll also get a cleaning tool, a shirt-clip and a round sticker. I think for the price there’s nothing to complain about accessory wise.

The cable is 64 Audio’s premium (SPC) cable which comes in a single-ended 3.5mm termination. There are no other options to chose from. If you want a different cable, you have to buy it separately.

Volur is available for 2,499$ through 64 Audio’s webshop or any of their global retailers.

Been into music and sound since he was a little brat, but spent his profession in a more binary field making things do what they were supposed to do. Ultimately just another dude on the internet with an opinion, into which you shouldn't put too much thought.
