Do both Ikaros and Nymph have ears or just Astrea?

Question

I haven't seen the movie yet, but I finished the show multiple times and have never seen either Ikaros' or Nymph's ears. Why is that?

I think the things on the top of Astrea's head are decorative wings rather than her actual ears. — Ikaros, Jul 13 '16 at 16:46
I thought the bell shaped objects beside her head were like robotic ears? — Maka Albarn, Oct 18 '16 at 04:24

They're almost never seen but Ikaros' ears are behind her hair.

_{From manga chapter 28}

But Nymph probably doesn't have ears _{From manga chapter 25}

The protruding robotic wings on Nymph's head and Astrea's head are their ears because they have been used to communicate. Following this principle whereby the bell-shaped objects on Ikaros's head receive speech, those wings are their ears. I have never seen actual ears but those seem to fill the job. Also it shows that Ikaros uses those as ears which I hope provides some of the answer you are looking for.
