Moondrop Starfield - ranked #229 of 584 In-Ear Headphones · Editor's rating 4.2/5

#229 Moondrop Starfield Discontinued eBay

Newer model: the Moondrop Starfield 2, ranked higher, rated 4.4/5, released Jul 2023. See every Moondrop Starfield generation.

Pros: A warm, smooth single dynamic tuning that scores 76 with a 1.85 dB spread, with bass about 1.5 dB above target and accurate mids. Its 32 ohm, 122 dB/Vrms load is easy to drive.

Cons: Discontinued and replaced by the Moondrop Starfield 2. Treble sits about 4 dB low with a 5.1 dB dip near 6.7 kHz, so it lacks some detail and sparkle.
