I love these so much. Never heard such an open and complete sound from an IEM. The bass is so deep and punchy even when the amount is nowhere near what I usually enjoy.
I have them too and I love them. I use the DSP cable and don't hear any artifacts. What I have found because I use USB Audio pro with Morphit PEQ add on, is I can use the digital cable and add additional EQ with USBAP-Morphit. So I add a +2.0 db bass shelf starting at 200 hz and an additional +1 db bass shelf at 50hz. I also add a -.5 db high shelf at 400 hz. Doing that, I find the sound goes from excellent to superb. I experimented with the analog cable to convert stock analog to the DSP tuning, and I find it does not have the same magic for some reason. Since I am perfectly happy using the Default DSP tuning via its cable, that's not an issue. And it does get as loud as I want with the DSP cable. Whole tuning sounds very dynamic. Been an audiophile for 47 years, and this is one of the best sounding components I've come across. At $360 I consider them a bargain. True high end.
Foam ear tips = better isolation + better bass. Silicone ear tips = so so isolation + tiny bass. But the ear tips issue aside: what is its DSP software quality? Did Moondrop update it? People are saying that the version #1 of the app was terrible.
Dam I didn't know that they closed it. I bought mine from Amazon and it looks like they took down the item on there. Edit: looks like you scan still buy them directly from shenzhenaudio
Hey Kay! I really appreciate the review! It's nice hearing thoughts from someone who has a normal consumer experience. Anyhow, do you know if there is a dac and/or amp within the cable? And if so, what is the bit rate you're able to get on your devices? Thanks!
Thanks for watching! Yeah there's a built in dac in the DSP cable and from their product page it says it's capable of decoding 32bit/384kHz. Edit: I'm not quite sure if that's the rate my device is playing at (I hope so!), but as far as capability yeah that's what the spec sheet says
These definitely sound better than the Beats Studio Pro, along with all other popular ANC Headphones like your Sony XM5s, Bose, Airpods Max, etc. These are hi fidelity earphones with a focus on sound quality only. The ANC Headphones are made for regular everyday portable use and traveling, completely different purpose!
@@thekaydubz they are pretty great. I had to cancel my dusk order due to my Sony tv dying on me…..had to buy an lg c3 instead lol, but I had the hype 4 coming in the mail anyway so I canceled the dusk. The dusk looks really attractive, I love clear solid resin builds.
@@thekaydubz but yeah the hype 4 is very satisfying, kind of like having a home theater system in your ears, so it’s really immersive for gaming and movies.

I used to use foam tips but I like the silicone nowadays. I have not ever touched the app to this day 😅
Thank you for the review! Can't wait to order mine, but it seems like preorders are closed for now
Dam I didn't know that they closed it. I bought mine from Amazon and it looks like they took down the item on there.

The Amazon orders were severely delayed since it wasn't clear there that there are release batches and they got complaints I assume.
I wish I could buy it but it's not being sold in my country. From crins release video, I can tell that this would've fit me.
Shenzhen audio doesn't ship to your country?
I couldn't wear the B2: Dusk outside due to the wind noise i could hear across the vent. Do these also have that issue?

Of course, there's a dac and amp in the cable. What do you think powers them.....pixy dust?
@@kona328WH Idk man. I assumed that there wasnt a dac in the cable because the normal 35 mm doesn't have one inside it, so I figured I'd ask
These are better. Than Beats Dtudio Pro in terms of sound ??? ❤❤

@@thekaydubz thanks for the response keep making good content
Great! so the app is fixed?
No idea! Never downloaded it
Listening with Hype 4s in my ears
I only hear good things about the hype 4!

You had the hype4 and dusk ordered at the same time??? $$$$$$
@@thekaydubz tax returns lol
Hard pass
Don't want to use the DSP?
