Soranik Introduces World's First Dual MEMS IEM Design Powered by xMEMS and USound

In an interesting development, Soranik, a leading IEM manufacturer from Vietnam launched its new MEMS-2 in-ear monitor (IEM) design, which uses not one but two different MEMS drivers, both reproducing a full-range signal with no crossover. Inside the Soranik MEMS 2 IEMs we can find one USound Conamara 6mm tweeter, known for its thinness and integration flexibility, along with an xMEMS Montara full-range monolithic MEMS microspeaker.

Innovative Speakers and Headphone Drivers in Voice Coil January 2023

For this first issue of 2023, Voice Coil compiled a set of valuable headphone and earphone driver vendor directories, updated with the latest factories. The remainder of this issue is centered on Test Bench characterizations of two very innovative drivers that Vance Dickason has received. The first one on the Test Bench was the PTT6.5M08-NFA-01 6.5" Midrange from Purifi Audio; The second driver was the already popular SW26DBAC76-4 10" shallow subwoofer from SB Acoustics.

Fresh From the Bench: USound Megaclite 4.0 UH-R2040 MEMS Earphones

Fresh From the Bench: USound Megaclite 4.0 UH-R2040 MEMS Earphones

The Megaclite 4.0 UH-R2040 is a reference design based on USound's Achelous UT-P2018 MEMS drivers, comparable in length and width to smaller balanced armatures, but thinner. They’re SMT reflow-compatible, so easy to incorporate into automatic assembly processes. Brent Butterworth listened, measured, and compared the performance of this new design against conventional in-ear products using established driver technologies. This article was originally published in audioXpress, October 2021.
