Aimore Acoustics Incorporation — FC:14:99 (MA-L)

A MAC address beginning FC:14:99 belongs to Aimore Acoustics Incorporation, a single-OUI IEEE MA-L registrant tied to a Shenzhen, China consumer-audio and smart-peripheral company, typically seen on wireless speakers, earbuds, headphones, and other Bluetooth/Wi-Fi audio peripherals rather than on any single flagship device.

IEEE's public registry lists exactly one MA-L block for this organization, FC:14:99, registered to an address in Shenzhen's Nanshan District. IEEE does not publish an assignment date for OUI records, so any "registered" date a third-party lookup tool attaches to this prefix is that tool's own database artifact, not an IEEE-sourced fact.

This is not a bare shell registration. Press and investment-database coverage identify the registrant as Shenzhen Aimore Intelligent Acoustics Technology Co., Ltd, founded 2018, which completed an angel round in 2019 and a Series A in 2021 with investors including Xiaomi Group, Shunwei Capital, and Yingke Capital, and is described as a Xiaomi ecosystem-chain hardware partner.

Press sources tie the company to acoustic products including the Xiaomi Xiao Ai Smart Speaker HD, Xiaomi gaming headphones, and a Xiaomi smart mouse, plus reported OEM acoustic work for Monster and Wharfedale. USPTO filings for the marks AIMORE and SONICODE, filed by the same company at a matching Shenzhen/Xueyuan Avenue/Tianliao Building address, cover Class 009 goods spanning wireless earphones, headsets, speakers, and computer peripherals — consistent with a company holding a MAC-prefix assignment for wireless audio hardware.

No CVE, malware, or botnet association naming Aimore Acoustics or the FC:14:99 prefix specifically was found as of an August 2026 search. The company's own site could not be reached to corroborate directly during this research; the assessment above draws instead on third-party press, an investment-database profile, and USPTO trademark filings.

Analyst note

FC:14:99 is a single-vendor MA-L block, not one of the large shared IEEE Registration Authority bases, so a MAC in this range reliably points to this one registrant rather than to many unrelated companies beneath a shared block.
