Probably as close as one can get to "true DF", though it's extremely shouty as a result.

Shouty thanks to 13dB of pinna compensation, but excellent note definition and imaging for the price.

Shoutfest and too much energy uptop for my likes, but good bass and technicalities for the price.

Clean, balanced sound for the most part, slightly warm but no bleed or bloat. Very smooth. A budget Tanchjim Origin, and better Galileo sound wise IMO (more air)

Moondrop SSR Scorings

Average Technical & Tuning Grades

Average Tunign Grade

D+
  • The tuning lacks refinement, jumping between dull and shouty without settling. Vocals frequently sound off-kilter.

Average Technical Grade

C-
  • Even moderate complexity exposes the limited resolution and narrow sense of space. Technical fans will find it lacking.
Bass C-
It keeps the low end tidy, though energy and weight remain limited. It favors balance over excitement.
Mids D+
Expect a rollercoaster midrange where coloration constantly distracts. Complex vocals turn metallic and unnatural.
Treble D
Treble response is uneven, jumping between dull spots and sharp peaks. Peaks poke out unpredictably.
Dynamics D
The presentation feels restrained, with transients arriving blunted and slow. Rhythms lack the expected drive.
Soundstage C+
Decent spatial presentation with noticeable width and a modest step forward in depth perception. There's a mild sense of width to enjoy.
Details C-
Average resolution that reveals the basics while missing many of the subtleties. It reveals enough to stay engaging.
Imaging C-
Separation is good enough for casual listening yet misses audiophile precision. Depth remains limited but present.
Gaming C-
Minimal environmental definition provides only general audio cues. Suitable for games where positioning isn't critical.
