64 Audio Nio Headphones - In Ear Monitors These are in excellent condition and an absolute joy to use. They come with an UPGRADED 64 Audio Premium 8-Braid 4.4mm balanced Silver Cable which alone sells for $829 on the A2A website PLUS I'm also adding a high quality Copper Cable that uses High Purity Oxygen Free Copper (also 4.4mm balanced). Cost of that cable is $399 (quoted from previous owner). The leather case is also included. Express shipping, signature on delivery and insurance is $25. Condition: Excellent Payment Method: PayID, Paypal, EFT, Cash Region/State: (QLD) Queensland/Australia
Would you buy it at A$1,500, or hold out for a cleaner sub-A$1,400 example? For the Nio, that asking price is fair to slightly firm, not a steal: new pricing sits around A$2,700–A$2,900 in Japan and A$2,300-ish in AUD-equivalent U.S. retail, while recent used asks I found cluster roughly from A$1,050 to A$1,500, with strong-condition examples often landing nearer A$1,300–A$1,450. At A$1,500, you’re paying near the top of the used band, so I’d only jump if the listing truly includes full accessories and the shells, cable, and connectors look spotless.
That said, the Nio is well regarded for its rich, bass-leaning tuning with the APEX pressure-relief system, so it’s a genuinely enjoyable listen rather than a spec-sheet exercise. If this is an original-owner unit with box, tips, case, and the stock cable intact, the value is solid for someone who wants a premium, easy-to-enjoy 64 Audio sound without going all the way to new pricing.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
64 Audio traces its roots to 2010, when sound engineer Vitaliy Belonozhko founded 1964 Ears in his spare bedroom in Portland, Oregon. Frustrated with the limitations of existing in-ear monitors compared to traditional floor wedges, Belonozhko—a veteran of over a decade working with Northwest musicians and production companies—began crafting custom solutions. His initial project involved disassembling his own IEMs to build a pair for his wife, sparking a family-driven venture fueled by his passion for music. Rebranded as 64 Audio, the company marked its 15th anniversary in 2025, evolving from humble origins into a global force now based in Vancouver, Washington.
The brand specializes exclusively in premium in-ear monitors (IEMs), eschewing amplifiers, speakers, or other hi-fi categories. Renowned for proprietary innovations like tia™ technology, which enhances sound clarity and reduces distortion, 64 Audio delivers custom and universal-fit models tailored for stage monitoring and critical listening. These IEMs prioritize comfort, reliability, and sonic precision, with multi-driver configurations that capture every nuance of live and recorded music.
Positioned firmly in the high-end niche, 64 Audio commands respect among GRAMMY-winning artists, front-of-house engineers, studio producers, and discerning audiophiles worldwide, with products sold in 92 countries. Its reputation rests on relentless innovation, technical excellence, and a mission to deepen musical connection—"Hear. Feel. Create."—making it the go-to for professionals and enthusiasts demanding uncompromising performance.
