Moondrop METEOR - A Moment of Silence
Now I've no regret clearing my loadout and thus moving forward.
My current loadout:
bit.ly/3QQk1JG
Q: Why your video in ppt form? 3rd grade?
A: Due to my poorly spoken English and laziness in retaking videos, I just take some photos out of my phone and call it a day.
Q: What is your dac/amp?
A: Topping E30ii + L30ii / Onkyo DP-X1A / Moonriver 2 / Apple Dongle / Focusrite 2i2
Q: Do you have song list for earphones/headphones testing?
A: Technically yes, but usually I just listen to what I feel like at that moment. And this time, I basically use it to game, and listen to practically everything.

Q: Your earphones collection / music taste sucks.
A: That's a fact.
Free free to ask for comparison among earphones that I own, I will try to answer as a filthy casual :)

How did you get these so fast? Are you based in China?
I live in HK.
Hello, the headphones are very good, but the problem is technical - in the right ear there is a battery that reduces the air volume performed by a closed box, and so the diaphragm is designed for a larger obye is deformed (an outfit is dense in the air output). Eleking - gel obstetrics will save -But you need to put them immediately when buying headphones!
@@wacupanic yah... it's a design flaw.
@@catadegen ua-cam.com/video/PDcLII_Rm6o/v-deo.html
did the classic tuning plus spring tips like you suggested and it was AMAZING not my first experience with iem’s, but still my first experience with moondrop, and i’m very happy! i can’t believe im in a situation where my airpods are now a “backup” option 😂 that acrylic block is also so gorgeous like you mentioned-photos can’t capture the holographic foil and color gradients on it
I got it too
I saw this video and immediately bought it. Arrived today and immensely impressed. I thank you for showing me such an amazing product!
so.....does the Bass hit like a Meteor?
@@lonewulfyamcha exactly
Hello cata, I would like to write to you as a fan of moondrop and the iem hobby in general. I need an opinion from someone who actually owns meteor moondrops. At first, when I saw the first photos taken at a convention I found them huge and unattractive, but when I saw your video, what a unique beauty. 500€ is a significant budget for me and I would like to have your opinion on owning them knowing that my most expensive pair are the see audio bravery 2024. Currently I have acquired the moondrop kadenz and aful p5+2. The future purchase that was planned are the tanchjim lost manor in 2025, but I'm afraid that meteor will be out of stock soon. I would like to point out that I have never had the moondrop variations, blessing 2 or dusk 2. Do you think that with the Meteor I can also find my happiness by having some things superior in terms of quality compared to what I already own? PS: thank you for your videos and for convincing me to take kadenz and Robin, I'm delighted.😊
@eargazme Np o/ While I really enjoy my Meteor purchase and want to say something like "trust me bro, you will be happy", there's still two concerns that need to be addressed, size and price. Size is my biggest concern for you ATM, because both of the Kadenz and p5+2 are still in the medium to small size category, and this thing is in the "damn" category. Price wise, 499 is a lot to spend in iem, while I'm pretty sure that you will get a significant upgrade from Kadenz (not gonna talk much about p5+2 since i don't have it), there's still a question that you may want to ask yourself, do you need that 500 for other things, such as dac amp, speakers, headphones etc. It's more important to have a richer listening profile than chasing the cutting edge item on one side imo. If the answer is no, then Meteor is a solid, all rounder choice, that at least, makes me feel like, I have no regret clearing out some older generation iems such as monarch mk2.
@@catadegen thanks so much for your return. I didn't have other planned stuff except the lost manor to buy in 2025. I think ordered meteor soon 😊 And I have an another question, where I buy the atami câble ? I didn't see it on retail store. It is included in the package of the meteor?
@@eargazme The atami cable is not for sale yet, it's a gift from MD if one purchase Meteor on day one from their official CN shop, just like back in the day they gifted line K as the gift for day1 Kato purchase. But don't worry, i think it sounds good enough with the default cable (3.5/4.4) already.
@eargazme please do a follow up comparison to your aful p7 when you got your meteor. Thankss and happy new year 🎉
My pair just arrived and they sound great! Not to mention the Robin influenced design and the acrylic block.
The Titan S2's are fakn' AMAZING!!! These are High Quality Premium IEM's for a freakin' value! These paired with the powerful elegant so manly MuseHiFi M5 Ultra Bluetooth/DAC and Akliam C5 USB-C short adapter cable to my Hi-Res Xiaomi Note 11 Pro+ tuned by JBL and perfectly fine tuned with the Wavelet app the freakin Titan S2 IEM's sound-stage is fkn' INCREDIBLE especially playing the mighty 80's New Wave jams! These Titan S2 package presentation is all premium from the materials used, printing, thickness and high quality of accessories... The sound is incredibly amazing, and it all depends highly on the ear tips you use! The bizarre thing is that for me non of the ear tips that was included with the Titan S2 give me a great sound... Something was missing from getting that incredible sound output and the tips were not working.... it is until I used the extra special ear tips that came in a special small case that the seller (ForHiFi) included that once I picked the correct size that seal my ears channels.... the fakn' music sound out of this world studio quality.... basically I had Sound Orgasm to my ears! The special tips turned these Titan S2's into high premium sound kicknAss earphones.... I was blown away from the crisp details from sounds and things in songs that I thought I never heard before. The bass was so clean and perfect that the whole experience felt like the artist/bands were performing live in front of me! AMAZING and worth every penny! Highly recommended paired with the powerful amazing MuseHiFi M5 Ultra (with vacuum tubes).... Those special tips should be the official ear tips for the Titan S2! p.s. Ok so I found out what the extra special ear tips that were included free by the seller that made these Titan S2 sound incredibly amazing.... and they are the "Divinme Darling Silicone Eartips Tips 4.5mm-6mm Nozzle Improve The Sense / Vocals Are Transparent / Reduce High-frequency Noise"...
What I found is that if the earphone tower chamber end is wide then ear tips with a small hole nozzle would make them sound great. if the end chamber of the earphone is small then a wider ear tip nozzle is the right choice for them...
Divinme Darling Silicone Eartips Tips perfect for the mighty DUNU TItan S2 IEMs....
Such a original design🔥🔥🔥
I just got it today, Robin is my first moondrop earphones I tried and im amazed at the sound quality of it at its price. It sounds as good as my bose qc 2 earphones which cost 3x more when i bought it and it broke on me after 1 year of use (which made me buy the Robin immediately), hopefully the Robin will be able to last at least 3 years of use as my new daily earphones!
Do they sound better than the Galaxy buds 2 pro or the sony link buds s? If so I'll buy them, I'd really appreciate it if you answer, thanks
@HoloTWW2 Never owned the two you mentioned, so really cannot comment much on it, but it sounds better than airpod pro imo.
@catadegen Thankyu anyways!
Cant seem find seller in my end but they do sound compelling to buy do like robin but is ut collab or hearing they great pair
aww come on i already saved on Truthear Hexa iems 😭 do i really want to lmao
It pains me that I just have bought one of these even though I already have pretty good earphone
VS Studio 4 and Mega5est?
@@abnormalspeciesabs94 Don’t have mega5est so I’ll not comment on that, but versus studio 4, meteor is more fun with the big bass and imaging, while studio 4 is just too good for monitoring purposes.
@@catadegen Which one has better timbre?
@@abnormalspeciesabs94 depending on your preference, everyone has different definition on timbre, I’d say studio 4 sounds easier on percussion, but meteor sounded clearer.
Im pumped for this. Too bad they have a busty anime depiction of a female plastered on the case.
They are sure thick as heck which means they will stick out a lot. But in terms of how much ear space they take, they are also much bigger than monarch mkii?
In terms of surface area that touches my ears, it's not much bigger than monarch mkii, more like they have different shape, and Meteor just sit on my ears like a device.
@@catadegenthat means it's a pass for me sadly, thanks for reply!
I already have Variations, and i'm very pleased with em. Is it worth to buy Meteor as an upgrade or not?
I won't necessarily call it a direct upgrade because a. tuning is completely different b. size is much bigger as well. While I'd treat Meteor as a more mature, all rounded iem with big bass and imaging, variation is still one of my go to, for female vocal solo. Sooooo, if you're very pleased with variation already, there's no need to rush or something, just remember Meteor exist and feel free to demo it in your free time (it's a hobby anyway)
which one would u recommend for fps games and music, the chu 2 or this?
fps wise, gate, music wise, depends, chu 2 has better technicality.
@@catadegen what about qkz x hbb?
@@bnd-n3e Never owned a set, won't comment.
Can you sleep on the side with it? I desperately need a new one for Asmr/Music 🥲
nah, i don't think so, plus I don't sleep with iem :/
thanks for the reply @catadegen ❤ Wireless May is a huge W so i'm planning on buying it either way.
I wish they made one for dan heng😭😭😭 its okay. At least we got robin
If I want one do it all IEM, would this be the one to get considering it comes with a good cable and dsp? I currently use Shure se215, and they sound so muddy. Would love something that's clear across the entire range. Preferably with a bit of noticeable sub bass, but guessing the dsp can help with that edit: also sadly I cant try any IEMs and return them, since it's not allowed in Norway because of hygiene concerns
se215 is so outdated and not comparable to modern iem (coming from someone who own 535 years ago), and if you're not sure about which one to get and don't want to spend big in the hobby yet, I'd whole heartedly recommend getting MD May, and get a feeling of dsp first (if anything else, im using May on an analog cable with 0 dsp as my daily driver). While Kadenz is in another level of technicality, it's triple of the price overall.
@@catadegen Found the moondrop may locally for just 65usd including 25% tax, so technically just 52usd! With it being that cheap i can always just upgrade later after knowing better what kind of tuning i like! also they look a lot cuter than the kadenz :3 Thanks a lot 💕
Moondrop waifu print box design has really been lacking 😭
iems will be endgame for me when they straight up let me plug the hope diamond into my ipod nano
you may be surprised, MD actually has a limited version of Kato, called Beautiful World, is made with diamond...
is this objectively better than softears studio 4 then?
Different, i'll keep studio 4 for monitoring purposes and Meteor for everything other than that.
The only endgame for me is the most technical iem cause i wanna hear every single bit of detail in my weeb songs without missing anything
tsmr sands filed that gap for me, moved on to speakers now
Aw hell nah. Metoerite??? Terraria ahh iem
That was beautiful. I have never wanted anything more in my life.
Is this still on sale?
@@Naykakun depends on region
i kinda regret not buying it. i knew it was a limited edition when i saw it months ago but i didnt know it looked that good... and it was like only $70 back then too :(
im pretty sure i wont like it that much since my daily driver is kato and usually switch with letshouer s12 and zero red but man i really like how that earbuds look
ordered mine also from shenzhenaudio and thank goodness its free shipping. Waiting until it arrives.
I still have Kato and will use it till it dies someday lol
Kato is still the goat, don't worry.
