Tipsy Blue Aurora : The Velvety Night

Blue Aurora is the entry level IEM from Tipsy, a Chinese company created in 2016. Blue Aurora is Tipsy's least expensive IEM. At a first glance, Blue Aurora looks like a beautiful IEM with charismatic looks, feel and immaculate design. The faceplate is of sparkling bluish-black colour with resin coating that gives it a silky appearance. It has the brand name Tipsy written over it in silver. The curvature and shape are smooth and provide a comfortable fit. It has a 2-pin connector with 4-Core SPC stock cable that's standard for an IEM of this range now a days. It also comes with a nice old-school faux leather pouch.

Disclaimer:

I have received Tipsy Blue Aurora as part of review circle sent from the brand itself in exchange of honest reviews. All impressions of sound are subjective to my own listening and my sources and is based on my experience with IEMs of similar hardware configurations and price range.

Sources:

For this review the unit has been paired to Cayin N5ii and LG V30+

Pros:

1. Sweet Musical Mids
2. Relaxed Laid-Back sound signature
3. Good soundstage and separation for the price
4. Adequate depth
5. Comfortable to wear even for long duration

Cons:

1. Well this is purely based on use case, if you want a relaxing IEM then there are no cons as such; else we can say there is a roll off at bass and treble response.
2. Cable quality doesn't feel very good

Highs:

The treble response is purely relaxing in Tipsy blue aurora. The resolution of highs is good as per price. The high although lack sparkle and those who do not prefer listening to ultra-high frequencies this is the best pair of earpieces. It’s more of a non-fatiguing earpiece. The highs never get sibilant irrespective of which kind of music is played on it.

Mids:

Mids are the range where one can feel the true potential of Tipsy Blue Aurora. It has beautiful vocals. Warm and Smooth mid-range gives an enjoyable listening experience. Bit more clarity would help but overall, in mid-range this gives a very stress-free listening. I enjoyed listening to Binaural sessions of Amber Rubarth on this during one fine night.

Lows:

Tipsy Blue Aurora as a mellow bass which is more detail oriented than thumpy grooving. It has a punchy Mid-bass but a rolled off sub-base. It forms a nice foundation for Mids and Highs without invading in mid-range.

Detailing/Imaging/Soundstage:

This has good detailing for an IEM this price. Soundstage and imaging are decent. Soundstage is more in depth than in height and width. All the aspects are so much in coherence that it feels a liquidly smooth IEM to listen to after a hectic day of work.

Final Verdict:

Tipsy Blue Aurora is definitely an IEM for a beginner audiophile who wants to enjoy the magic of a single BA driver. But even if one is not a beginner audiophile and after a busy day just wants to relax then as per me this is the perfect IEM; all you need is to plug in this and have a nice Binaural recordings and just enjoy the sweet mid-range with decent imaging and depth. So, in a nutshell If you are looking for sound signature that sooth your mind instead of exciting it, this would be the way to go.
