The
Aune AR5000 has taken the affordable high-end headphone market by storm! The audio press has been shocked at the extraordinary sound quality of this open-back headphone at such a low price point. While the AR5000 is a great performer across the board, it really shines in the midrange where the music lives. These headphones invite you to listen for hours, and with their superb comfort and light weight you’re able to do so easily.
Then, you have the
Aune Yuki, one of the strongest contenders in the high-performance and value-oriented dongle DAC/amp market. It’s hard to imagine Aune made a superbly built dongle featuring a fully discrete 4-way balanced headphone amp circuit with 3.5mm and 4.4mm outputs at this price. Dual Cirrus Logic DAC chips provide the smooth, full bodied and inherently musical sound that’s a hallmark of the brand.
While they’re both outstanding performers on their own, this is a case where truly “the whole is greater than the sum of its parts”. There’s an unbelievable synergy between these two products. You’ll be absolutely shocked at what is possible for pure sonics and musical engagement with this combo. The presentation is rich and full-bodied without sounding bloated, but with a seductive midrange that will have you immersed in your favourite tunes or eagerly exploring new music.
If you want to take advantage of the fully balanced headphone circuit of the Yuki, add the
Aune AR3 4.4mm Balanced Headphone Upgrade Cable. This is a higher grade cable than the stock AR5000 cable featuring Litz construction, high-purity OCC wire and a 4.4mm Pentaconn connector that allows the Yuki to run balanced for the lowest noise and nearly double the output power.
