FlipEars Aegis Scorings

Average Technical & Tuning Grades

Average Tunign Grade

C
  • The tuning lacks refinement, jumping between dull and shouty without settling. Vocals frequently sound off-kilter.

Average Technical Grade

C+
  • It offers a competent showing, maintaining cohesion on straightforward arrangements. Complex passages start to challenge it, but never derail the show.
Mids C-
Midrange is passable yet unrefined, revealing grain and occasional harshness. It sounds a bit grainy on detailed recordings.
Treble C+
The top end is tidy and serviceable, adding air without overdoing it. Extension is decent for casual listening.
Dynamics B
Dynamic expression is good, delivering solid impact and convincing contrast. Percussion lands with convincing weight.
Soundstage C+
It pushes sound outward confidently while leaving height development as an unfinished idea. Height remains subtle but detectable.

A near-classic under $500: delivers thrilling bass texture via bone conduction, lush mids, and cathedral-like staging—perfect for bassheads who refuse to sacrifice detail or build quality.

Pros
Exceptional bass depth and physicality with zero muddiness, holographic soundstage that feels massive, and stunning hand-painted design that looks far more expensive than its price.
Cons
Slightly dark treble lacks airiness for some genres, and larger shells may cause fit issues for small ears during extended use.
