About this item
Written by Crutchfield's Jeff Miller
The Shure AONIC 215 true wireless earbuds play music wirelessly and deliver spacious sound with punchy bass.
True wireless convenience and studio sound
Shure's second-generation AONIC 215 true-wireless earbuds feature a cable-free, sweat-proof design for listening on the go. They also deliver the company's legendary pro-grade sound. Music professionals and headphone enthusiasts will certainly recognize the spacious sound and secure fit.
That's because Shure started with their classic SE215 in-ear monitors — used in music creation and appreciation for years. Next, they added their cutting-edge RMCE-TW2 true wireless secure fit adapter.
Higher-quality streaming
The adapter consists of separate left and right earpiece attachments that communicate wirelessly, with no connecting cable between them. It uses Bluetooth 5.0, a newer version of the wireless technology, which offers a stronger, more reliable connection. This adapter also features aptX® coding for improved sound quality with devices that support this advanced wireless audio codec.
Eliminate noise — the old-fashioned way
If you've never worn Shure earphones before, the first time can be startling. It gets really quiet. When I put them on in my home office, all the usual distractions just disappear.
Unlike noise-canceling headphones that pump in subtle phase-canceling signals to neutralize external sound, Shure in-ears make a tight seal that just blocks it all out. It's a super-effective approach that reduces outside sound by a whopping 37dB, to be exact.
My listening impressions: spacious and detailed with potent bass
I've always been struck by how spread out everything sounds through Shure in-ear monitors. Because they fit inside my ears, my brain was telling me to expect a concentrated, between-the-ears soundstage. Instead, Kasami Washington's sprawling jazz-funk song "Truth" practically enveloped my head. I'm talking aImost 360 degrees!
Shure's sound signature is usually pretty neutral. They make headphones for professional recording and performing, after all. But these headphones are more bass-focused, which I actually appreciated.
The slight low-end lift added a fun yet taut energy to the more straight-forward, focused track "Fire" by Waxahatchee. Katie Crutchfield's gentle voice sat perfectly above the simple, twangy guitar riff. Welcome nuances like the tap of a hi-hat or the errant press of an organ key all occupied their own distinct place in the mix. But they never distract from the urgency of the vocals or intimacy of the space.
Music, calls, and quick awareness
There are tactile buttons on both the left and right adapter for controlling music, calls, and volume. You can make and take phone calls through a single earbud or both. And a quick touch of the button on the left earbud turns on "Environment Mode," which pauses the music and makes it easier to hear external voices and sounds.
