Creative Aurvana In-Ear2


Creative just announced their second IEM model under the Aurvana brand, the In-Ear2. Still a single balanced armature transducer based design like the aging Aurvana In-Ear, the In-Ear2 spots a more modern look and what seems like an open-back design. While it is claimed that the grill helps to improve bass response, it is unclear whether that will affect the overall isolation. The MSRP is around $110, which is a little high in todays' market but not out of line compared to other big brand names.

I am quite sure that the original In-Ear has only one BA in each side. You can check out the In-Ear page in Creative website and the internal diagram also shows only one BA in the earpiece. Note, don't be fooled by what seem to be two coils and magnets. That is how one BA look like when you cut it in half on the middle.
