I just recently discovered the Moondrop lineup and this is such a great review. I love that you don't try to get fancy with your delivery and ultimately you're just a music lover wanting to make the most of your experience. IMO those mid-range Moondrop IEMs are really incredible value, from the Aria to the Starfield. Glad to hear the Kato offers a bit of flexibility for not too much money. Also btw people are overlooking what is IMO a really great cable. It's very similar to what comes with the SSP/SSR and I really love it.

Moondrop have it right build quality IEMS so audiophiles buy them and then put anime girls on them so weebs buy them. Now if your a weeb and an audiophile like me or *cough* zeos *cough* then its just an insta buy! xD Absolutely love my Moondrop starfields and the box makes a great display on my floating bookshelf.

OK, as a non-audio-technical-snob-person, your review and explanation using the details of some songs I know about was way more useful in "selling" me the KATO than all the graphs and Harman shapes and soundstages and reflections and dBs and Hz and bullshit I saw people talking about in other reviews. I'm actually deciding between the KATO and the Blessing 2, both by Moondrop. The Blessing 2 is way more expensive (almost double the price of the KATO) but I've been hearing very good things about it. I'd ask your opinion, but you've already said your only other experience with a more expensive IEM was with the QoA one.

14:45 Cobain had a lot of pain to express. One of so many people with a horrible past to endure. His music definitely expressed it. I recall an interview in which David Grohl tried to express the intensity of Nirvanas music. At times, all he could do to contribute to the feel was to try to play louder.

Weird thing was when using them with the Apple dongle for Android, I wasn't getting anything below 100hz, I thought it must be my hearing (or maybe the needed to 'break in'). I've been using them with the Dragonfly Cobalt and the very low frequencies are there now. They sound really good to me :) (I'd been using the Dragonfly with some headphones as well so it isn't just for IEMs, I like it though).

@@vinnylc When I started out in the audio world it was because of Zeos and his reviews. One purchase was SHP9500. Nothing makes 9500 a good headphone at the price. It’s a total disappointment and gets destroyed by KPH30i. SHP9500 is absolutely NOTHING like Zeos describes it. It is my least favorite headphone out of everything I’ve tried. Blon BL03, also nothing like Zeos described it, though admittedly still a decent option for bassheads at the price. Z recommends whatever makes him money. I love the guy for his entertainment value with his little gopro setup, and for the amount of people he brings into the audio world. However Z does whatever he can to make the most money, and that’s why he’s almost always recommending whatever product he’s reviewing. Credit where credit is due, the guy is entertaining. But he’s not reliable by any means. Always watch a few more reviews and ideally try to consult with people who’ve tried it and have nothing to gain by recommending you a product. Love most of these youtube reviewers for the content they put out and the entertainment value, but always try to consult with multiple people and never watch 1-2 reviews and make a decision. Anyways your opinion is your opinion and I hate arguing in yt comments section so I’ll close with that. 👍

I'm not sure about the 9500s as I never heard them but I can say that for the half dozen I own and dozens I have tried I see very little difference in mine and Zeos "taste" in headphones, I prefer less treble than he does, I like a dark warm punchy can but I also have flat analytical cans as well. I cant wait for Can Jam NYC this year I'm probably going broke after the show 😆

Despite their qualities, I wasn’t able to like them. I had a quite strong ear fatigue, possibly due to the 3k peak. I had great exceptations for them, sadly I haven’t found a proper upgrade to my KZ ZS10 Pro yet. I’m treble sensitive, so that’s hard to find some gear which suit my problems. I own a LCD2C and a Focal Clear as headphones and I love them. Hope to find an IEM « equivalent » !

I think I got to throw away my KZs, also the 10pro. And the Etymotics, and the IKKO OH10, and the Hana, and the Shoure, ....., and even the P1. I am still contemplating over the FDX1 since it is a boarder line and the 7hz Timeless.

@@aaDee008 Most? Difficult! OH10 - very good V-shape with bass, but I like more the FDX1. Timeless is very new for me and still cannot say is better than the FDX1. FDX1 is the best bright and detailed DD up to $500 for me while Timeless is the best planar ever and so far. And it is a bit more balanced than the FDX1 - the solid bass matches the highs but it is on par with the FDX1 in detail. Timeless has mediocre accessories and a bit difficult fit while FDX1 has marvelous accessories. So it is difficult to choose b/n the two.
