AME Mousa VS 64 Audio Volur

Youtube Video Summary

AME Mousa goes all-in on extravagance: a 15-driver array (BA stack plus two bone conductors) in a massive, impeccably finished shell with a faceplate that hints at Damascus-steel swirls. The $4,500 package feels ultra-premium—weighty presentation box, desk display case, metal tip cards (fancy but a bit fiddly), and a tidy stock cable that looks good yet lacks a chin slider. Fit will depend on ear size: the shells are very thick and heavy, though ergonomics and finish are smooth. Overall unboxing and build scream luxury.

Sonically it hits a warm, energizing V-shape with impactful bass, dynamic highs, and full-bodied vocals; sibilance is minimal and the set shines at higher volumes. Tuning isn’t neutral—expect a 1 kHz dip and lively 4–6 kHz energy—so it thrills more than it analyzes, and can edge toward fatigue over marathon sessions. Versus peers, it feels richer and more rambunctious than neutral “meta-target” options (think Storm/K4 style sets), less air-starved than darker tunings like CP622B, and more bass-driven than something like Annihilator while not as modular or chameleon-like as Grand Maestro. The takeaway: a specialist, endgame-flavored IEM for listeners chasing slam, note-weight, and engagement over strict neutrality—highly enjoyable if the price and shell size aren’t deal-breakers, and best auditioned first given its bold fit and flavor.

Youtube Video Summary

64 Audio Volür comes across as a tour-de-force of bass tech: dual true isobaric dynamic drivers deliver deep, textured rumble with a “speaker-in-the-room” feel, while the Tia BA adds pronounced upper-treble energy. Ergonomics are excellent—compact metal shells, smooth nozzles that take tips well, and a best-in-class top two-pin connection that makes cable swaps effortless. Build feels built-to-last and the purple faceplate looks classy, though a more varied aesthetic across 64 Audio’s lineup would be welcome.

The APEX modules change flavor more than fundamentals: M20 adds a touch more bass, M15 strikes the best balance, M12 runs leaner, and MX is very flat and generally skippable; running it empty is a hard no. On music, Volür shines with EDM/modern productions, projecting holographic low-end and vivid dynamics; in dense mixes with strong instrumentals and vocals, the midrange can feel overrun and less engaging. Versus peers: U4s tracks similarly in bass level (with different modules), Elysian Annihilator brings stronger 3 kHz vocal presence while Volür counters with superior bass texture, and Monarch MKIII sounds more overtly U-shaped with greater mid/upper energy.

As a package, this is a fantastic IEM—arguably a favorite from 64 Audio—yet not flawless. The price is steep, the APEX ecosystem feels like paid tuning switches, and there’s some treble peaking plus occasional vocal thinness; a simpler, cheaper, M12-style fixed tuning would be a dream. For listeners prioritizing hip-hop, rap, and modern genres, Volür can absolutely be endgame; for vocal-centric or classical libraries, it’s impressive but not definitive. Overall verdict: a five-star recommendation for those who can afford it, anchored by class-leading bass and exceptional build, with clear trade-offs noted.
