About this deal

Lower mids are full enough to give baritone vocals their signature heft without making them sound boxy (check out Ben Howard’s Cloud Nine). I would also toss the Linsoul Shuoer Tape Electrostatic IEM into this list, but I’ve not heard it yet.

I find listening to a mixture of favorites that I know intimately, and an almost random assortment of music I own gives me the most comprehensive impression of a piece of audio equipment. They also include 6 pairs of ear tips that include Small, Medium and Large, spare dust filters and a tweezer (amazing) that helps you install the dust filters.Upper-mids are more upfront on the Moondrop Starfield so if you prefer intimate vocals the E3000 will sound recessed in the midrange.

Your review convinced me to get them but I was wondering if it was a good idea to pair them with the fiio lc-bt2 or the shanling mw200 (seems to be better) ? Mid-bass bleed is well controlled so the details are still intact and not overshadowed by the mid-bass bleed. They provide an excellent and balanced sound signature that is exceptionally smooth and easy to listen to. In fact, I’ve spent hours listening to YouTube rips of my favorite guitarists because the experience is just that pleasant. I consider this the normal average for most IEM’s out there, most headphones really, in general terms.I find that there is some upper mid energy that does not parallel the treble quantity and bite factor, which makes me either want more treble, or less upper mids to balance that out. The midrange of the Starfield is Harman-inspired, peaking at around 3kHz with a tad too much emphasis at around 4kHz which some might find bright initially; I know I certainly did on the KXXS.

String instruments lack bite as notes are rounded off, as can be heard on The Paper Kite’s Nothing More Than That (the guitar squeaks for example). Super-sequential carbon nanotube array is a proud application technology in China, which allowing nanotubes as a micro material to be applied in macroscopic reality.

There's a minor peak on the upper mid-range which made the overall upper mid-range kinda sweet and a bit intimate. The recessed midrange and the subdued lower treble turns it into a dark-sounding IEM although it does the treble better than the Moondrop Starfield if you listen closely (treble notes don’t decay abruptly). From the unique design to the very delicate and natural sound, it’s a listening experience, I simply can’t recommend enough.For me, midrange is the star of the show, it's not that it is a mid-centric pair of IEM but it is definitely the part I love the most. MoonDrop claims that this new diaphragm design offers “excellent bandwidth and ultra-low full-frequency distortion” and while the sound remains balanced like the KXXS, it has a “softer and warmer sound.
