There is also a gorgeous limited edition version of the SSR / SSP that has a color scheme similar to the Starfields called Stardust. Probably more of a collector's item than anything else considering how laughably easy the paint chips from the Starfields unless the paint quality got improved.
Yes, I think I saw that. It was only available on Taobao if I remember correctly. Not sure about the paint job - the navy blue on my SSP is rock solid after plenty of rough handling.
Watching this review, I ordered these instead of the Aria's. My main reason is comfort. I have quite sensitive ears, so I'd rather take something possibly more comfortable than something that sounds better. These seem sufficient in the sound department, especially when equalizers are a thing. Just for reference, I cannot wear on-ears for long, earbuds though long ago were painful, and I wanted something small / portable to take with me more easily.
While that may be true for most people, my inner ears are quite small and chances are that the aria would be too large. Besides I have set a good eq profile from autoeq which I use almost all of the time. With this profile I doubt the aria would be much better sound wise.I am at least perfectly happy how it sounds, compared to my hd6xx with eq
after watching shit ton of ssp and ssr videos i have decided to go with ssr in green i really like the sound signature of ssr from what i have seen so far in reviews
Good review as always, thanks! I agree with you, those shells look great. If you have tried the Blon bl-01, how these SSP compare to the bl-01? Since the SSP are double the price of the bl01, I wonder if the difference in sound is that noticeable.
I just ordered the SSP, I have the SSR.. looove them...but I expect something different from SSP also different library... Just wonder if I like them as you do... or...we'll see Thank you ✌️♥️
hi im fairly new to the iem market, which do you think between the ssr, ssp and the tanchjim ola are best for gaming utilitizing the directional positioning?
sorry about the necro-comment (i guess) would you recommend this or the kinera bd005 pro for ~50 USD personally i listen to a lot of hip hop but also a fair bit of funk instrumentals
How are moondrop SSP compared to the Kz zsx at the same price? And , since moondrop SSP are more difficult to drive, do they play worse than other headphones if used from mobile?
Zsx has a brighter tone and more clarity. Ssp has a more mature slightly darker sound with less treble energy. Ssp is not ideal for use with a mobile because it loves power.
@@PrimeAudioReviews But if, for example, i put the volume on the phone to the max, are the ssp good or they aren't listenable? (my mainly use is with pc or an amp but i would like to use with phone too)
@@chiarafoccardi8145 I also have the Moondrop ssp, at first i don't believe that it's harder to drive because most of the time i only look at the impedence count, aftet receiving it, i maxed out all of my phone's volume, volume and punch is still lacking, i need to maxed out poweramp's pre amp just to achieve decent volume and satisfaction, but still very bad when outdoors, so i decided to buy some cheap USB C DAC dongle, my choices are Hiditz Sonata and or the way cheaper Jcally jm04 pro, but I've seen some issues regarding sonata, some people experience excessive heat and loss of sound with their sonatas, so i decided to buy the Jcally jm04 pro, it has the same Dac chip used by some DDHIFI dac dongles aswell, and oh boy, perfection for it's price!!! what a great tandem with the ssp, volume is way louder, soundstage improved, vocals bacame more clear and forward, but no sibilance at all, check it out mate, just look for Jcally Jm04 Pro
Should be OK but you won't have a lot of headroom. By the way, if you're looking for some sparkling treble, this is not the iem that will give you that
First of all, just chill! Pull the connectors straight up when you want to detach the cable. Now, in order to fix the existing cable, just gently straighten the pins again on a tabletop or something like that.
@@PrimeAudioReviews Ahahahah i was so much in a panic that i just placed an order on some generic 2 pin cables, I'll try to straighten them, thanks for the tip!
Similar on both although I'd say the DQ6 has more control. Pretty close in the mids too but DQ6 has more treble energy which gives it added midrange clarity. SSP is more laid back and smoother/darker.
Bro, you either need to get better eartips (if you're not getting a tight seal) or u just gotta buy something else. What is it that you don't like about SSP?
Heart mirror is leaner, colder with a bigger soundstage and less bass. SSP is denser, warmer and much harder to drive. Both amazing for the price but just depends on what kind of sound you're looking for.

Found the SSP to be more fun sounding with a funky bass response as compared to the SSR. Also loved the beautiful Blue gold finish on the pair
Exactly! I love that color too. 😘
This a great review so honest I am so excited waiting my SSP and give my feedback about it...thanks
Hope you enjoy it and can't wait for your feedback!
Good review as always, thanks!
I agree with you, those shells look great.
If you have tried the Blon bl-01, how these SSP compare to the bl-01?
Since the SSP are double the price of the bl01, I wonder if the difference in sound is that noticeable.
I've had so many questions re the BL01, I'm starting to regret turning it down. I might have to get my hands on one.
Thank you as always. Very good review
Thanks!
really enjoy your review, one thing i want to ask.
which one will you choose between ssp and tin t2?
They are both nice but I would go with the Tin T2. It has a slightly better sound, although I prefer the shape of the SSP!
I just ordered the SSP, I have the SSR.. looove them...but I expect something different from SSP also different library... Just wonder if I like them as you do... or...we'll see Thank you ✌️♥️
Ssp has a very relaxed treble compared to ssr. It's still a good IEM but you might find it a bit dark in comparison.
It all comes down to is it enjoyable and clever...or not The truth is I really enjoy Moondrop sound very much Thanks ✌️💯🔆😎
hi im fairly new to the iem market, which do you think between the ssr, ssp and the tanchjim ola are best for gaming utilitizing the directional positioning?
SSR will give you the best positioning.
sorry about the necro-comment (i guess)
would you recommend this or the kinera bd005 pro for ~50 USD
personally i listen to a lot of hip hop but also a fair bit of funk instrumentals
Go for the BD005 Pro or Moondrop Chu.
The svelte design reminds me of the brand new Smabat X1 which I'm considering getting. Any thoughts on the X1's?
The X1 looks very interesting. Composite dual unit driver and tuning switches. I might try it.
What would you choose between cca c12, kbear lark, and moondrop ssp? Im having a hard time choosing between the 3.
I would choose SSP unless you're a treble head. If you like a brighter/forward treble go for the Lark.
@@PrimeAudioReviews thank you
Just to ask, I hope you answer, If you replace its cable with mic, would the mic be working? I just bought one.
Thanks!
Yes, it will work just fine.
How does it compares to the Starfield? Whic one do you prefer betweem these two?
I still prefer the Starfield for sound but I really love the SSP shells!
@@PrimeAudioReviews please review the new released kinera bd005 pro !
It's on the way too!
When listening to music which is better? The SSR or the SSP?
SSR if you don't mind brighter signature. SSP if you're sensitive to treble.
Hye, which better? Kz zsn pro X, SSr or T2 ?
For daily music and movie :)
Tin T2.
Waiting for the legacy 4 review
Working on it!
do you prefer the ssp or ssr? and why
I prefer SSP. SSR is the better iem technically but I prefer something warmer for a daily driver.
@@PrimeAudioReviews Thank you! I'll definitely take note of that.
Hi for gaming(fps like apex) and accuracy which would be better, SSR/SSS?
SSR. But you should also consider the Moondrop Chu: a sweeter overall sound with pretty much the same detail.
@@PrimeAudioReviews moondrop or chu, which is better?
which wouod be better if I dont need high treble bl03 or ssp ??
Ssp has a more relaxed treble.
im new to iem world, i use m50x as my daily driver, now im confused which one to get the ssr or the ssp?
Neither. Go for the 7Hz Salnotes Zero or KZ ZS10 Pro X/KS1 Pro.
@@PrimeAudioReviews 7Hz zero better than moondrop SSR?
@@karanpalilkar2320 yeah more natural
@@PrimeAudioReviews and what about comfort?
@@karanpalilkar2320 both of them are really comfortable for me. Ssr is smaller and you almost forget it's in your ears

I think it would be fine unless you're one of those people who listens to music at super loud volume.
@@PrimeAudioReviews thank you

is apple dingle enough to drive ssp??
Should be OK but you won't have a lot of headroom. By the way, if you're looking for some sparkling treble, this is not the iem that will give you that
I literally bent both the pins while trying to remove the cable, what to do?
First of all, just chill! Pull the connectors straight up when you want to detach the cable. Now, in order to fix the existing cable, just gently straighten the pins again on a tabletop or something like that.
@@PrimeAudioReviews Ahahahah i was so much in a panic that i just placed an order on some generic 2 pin cables, I'll try to straighten them, thanks for the tip!
They need to do a Hyper Spaceship Pulse (HSP) ;)

How is the bass & mid, better than kz DQ6??
Similar on both although I'd say the DQ6 has more control. Pretty close in the mids too but DQ6 has more treble energy which gives it added midrange clarity. SSP is more laid back and smoother/darker.
@@PrimeAudioReviews plz suggest best basshead with good vocals mid range iem from $25 to $30??
I think the DQ6 would be good for you.
how do i make my ssp's sound better im only using an androird phone for it...
Bro, you either need to get better eartips (if you're not getting a tight seal) or u just gotta buy something else. What is it that you don't like about SSP?
@@PrimeAudioReviews volume is really low to the point that even the akg samsungs freebies that i got was louder and had better bass
@@danielanthonysantiago2728 dongle dac?
@@necromancernecro340 i returned it, i was stupid and i though iems worked as regular earphones and u just plug em lmaooo
What has a more forward vocals out of all?
I would say the SSR.
@@PrimeAudioReviews 👌
How is ssp compared kz zs 10 pro.
SSP has a rolled-off treble, slightly more forward in the midrange. ZS10 Pro is more energetic and has slightly better detail retrieval.
How its compare with KZ ZSX?
Less V-shaped. Sounds more natural but it has less treble energy.
@@PrimeAudioReviews for casual listening and some but little rocky music, which one is better? kz zsx, moondrop ssp or kz zex?
compare to the Hz sound heart mirror? 😷
Heart mirror is leaner, colder with a bigger soundstage and less bass. SSP is denser, warmer and much harder to drive. Both amazing for the price but just depends on what kind of sound you're looking for.
Funny... the best fitting IEM I have Blon3😆✌️
Very hard to drive these things. Didn't like it particularly. Even with a DAC they don't sound loud enough. Money not well spent.
