Moondrop Starfield Carbon Nanotube Diaphragm Dynamic Earphone

This is best in terms of sound quality, but i just got addicted to noise cancelling.

You get more for what you pay

Los Iems han llegado a un nivel de calidad que por apenas 100€ tenemos auriculares de mucho nivel. Este Starfield no es menos y por su rango de precio, en mi opinión es uno de los top 3-5. Fabricado en una aleación de metal, son muy bonitos, atraen la atención sin duda, no son demasiado grandes al menos para mi y a mi me han resultado MUY cómodos, puedo estar 3 o 4 horas con ellos y ningún dolor en el canal auditivo ni molestia, de 10 en este sentido. El cable que viene incluido desluce un poco el iem, no es un cable malo, pero tampoco es bueno, es bastante mediocre y tiende a enredarse bastante, ademas de ser algo fino. Lo cambie según llego por un Linsoul Zonie, ni punto de comparación. Hablando un poco de su sonido, es un iem bastante equilibrado con un ligero realce en el grave que le da un toque cálido a la música, en ningún caso el grave interfiere en la zona media o resulta retumbon. Su rango medio no esta ni muy adelantado ni atrasado, esta en su sitio, es definido, natural y nítido. En cuanto a su zona alta extiende bien sin resultar sibilante excepto en algunos temas mal grabados que si he encontrado alguna pequeña sibilancia, nada serio y en general bien resuelto sus agudos. En cuando a escena es bastante amplia y por encima de la media en estos precios, su separación instrumental es bastante buena y podremos diferenciar bien todos los instrumentos, así como su imagen que también esta bien resuelta y podremos saber donde se colocan los instrumentos alrededor nuestra de forma notable, lo que por otra parte y a falta de probarlo bien, me parece que puede ser un iem que case muy bien con videojuegos donde se requiera un buen posicionamiento. No es un iem que tenga ningun genero fuerte como otros, pero a cambio tenemos un iem bastante todoterreno donde cualquier genero sonara bien. Yo he probado con rock, electrónica y bandas sonoras y en los 3 géneros el iem cumple a la perfección, aunque que creo que cuando hay un cantante es donde mas brillan estos iem. Este Iem es un paso adelante comparado con el Kanas Pro. Es importante saber que prácticamente suenan igual que sus hermanos KXXS que cuestan unos 170€, es decir: Por 60/70€ menos tenemos este starfield que es ligeramente mas cálido que el KXXS, pero en una escucha con ambos al lado apenas se aprecian diferencias, son prácticamente iguales. Comparándolo con un Fiio FH5 que tengo también, no queda muy lejos de este ultimo, aunque el Fiio resulta algo mas nítido y definido con un grave mas presente y de calidad y un medio adelantado. El starfield por contra es mas equilibrado y con mas escena y extiende mas en los agudos, ademas de mucho mas cómodo en escuchas largas. Para mi, toda una sorpresa este Moondrop Starfield, sobretodo por el precio.

wow, these sounded so wide and were a ppleasure to listen to. I did however return mine out of the fear i might chip the paint. I hate that moondrop make such beautiful iems with such poor quality, it isnt fair... That aside, if u get these, id recommend getting a replacement cable, as the original one is pretty bad imo

Soy baterista y tras investigar mucho, me decidí por estos audífonos y me encantaron. Excelentes bajos, medios presentes y agudos sin incomodar. Excelentes para monitoreo personal en tocada en vivo. Solo el cable está muy delgado y el case que viene de regalo deja mucho que desear.

The Starfields are tuned to a “Harman curve”, or “Harman target”. Compared to a “flat” tuning, this particular tuning has more elevation in the bass range and treble. As a result, this gives Starfield’s representation a really enjoyable, and very dynamic listening experience. Starfield does not excel at bass response. Nevertheless, the bass response remains very smooth. It is neither aggressive nor energetic, nor the opposite; it finds itself in a decent spot. The bass line in Mac Miller’s “Circles” is so gentle, and doesn’t slam it in your face, which I am grateful for, as the overall song has a very slow tempo. The kick in Frank Ocean's "Lost" lacks grunt, it's more like a hollow thump without the density a kick should have. Furthermore, it seems that the bass isn't pushing the track along at the same pace as the rest of it. This is evident in "The Pretender" by Foo Fighters, as even though the guitars and singing were fast and came with great attack, the kick and toms did not have the same level of performance. I don't feel like the bass is jumpy and energetic like it could be, and it just leaves me wanting more. The midrange is where the Starfields shine. It is the best aspect of the IEM’s. The mid-range is exceptionally well-tuned, because it's kept clean and leaves a lot of room for the lower and upper-midrange, allowing vocals to be brought to life. Fleetwood Mac’s “Never Going Back Again” had beautiful vocals that were so well defined. In the same manner that vocals are well defined, instruments are also very well defined, especially guitars. String plucks in Sting's "Shape of my heart" were executed flawlessly to complement his vocals without pushing them back. While the midrange takes a back seat, it is by no means bad at all, in fact, it allows the vocals and instruments to sound delicate and natural, resulting in a experience of music that I have never heard before, leaving me completely mesmerised. The Starfields treble has been rolled off, which reduces fatigue. With my experience, Sia’s “Chandelier (piano version)” was an absolute joy to listen to, finally. The aggression and energy the Starfields deliver is exactly the way she intended to deliver her vocals, yet they weren’t piercing in the slightest. Additionally due to the treble reproduction, as it is decently precise and detailed, I am noticing new elements in the song I never heard before, such as the natural sounds of chord changes in Dire Straits “The Man’s Too Strong”, they are subtle but so effective into the overall presentation of the song. The soundstage of the Starfields is excellent. There is a lot of height and depth presence which makes the Starfield’s very immersive. An example of this is each instrument has its own space, allowing them to feel as the mastered track it is, making it clear that each instrument is in different places. Listening to Cymande’s “Dove” the güiro is very faint and very distant from the centre of the action, whilst still being present enough to be heard, resulting in an increase of depth to the music. Regardless of how busy the song is, I have found the separation of the Starfield’s to be very good. Listening to “Take Five” By Dave Brubeck's String Quartet, which is a relatively busy song, every instrument was easily recognisable and had its stage to perform, there was no competition in each instrument, it all works together, in really good harmony, without any instrument being more profound than the other. Overall, the Starfields represent a very enjoyable sound. Although the bass doesn’t always give the grunt needed to feel the song, the mid-range and treble is controlled, delicate and represented so well, therefore making songs sound so natural, which is an absolute joy to listen to. Fit and Comfort The starfields, although being heavier than expected, still fit in my ears very well. I do use the smallest tips, and it has taken some time to adjust. Sometimes I do need to push them back in as they slightly slip out of the ears, even with the smallest ear tips, mainly because they are a weighty pair of IEM’s, luckily, this isn't all of the time. The Starfield are a very comfortable pair of IEM’s. I can sit through long listening sessions without the need to have a break. I feel people with bigger ear canals will find them even more comfortable than I do, even though I find them very comfortable myself. I wouldn't use them for commuting because they don’t fully isolate. Build Quality The Starfield have excellent build quality. They are metal and have a finish that is unlike any other IEM’s I have seen, sadly, the finish is prone to peeling off. They feel heavy and the machining is excellent, which is conducive to a very unique aesthetic. What I find most mesmerising about the finish is depending on the angle, the paint will shift from blue to purple. It’s a work of art. Tits and Tats The Starfield’s include a clamshell carrying case, which is a decent size for the IEM’s themselves. It’s a nice case, could be a little bigger for the cable, but it is still a decent case nonetheless. They also include 6 pairs of ear tips that include Small, Medium and Large, spare dust filters and a tweezer (amazing) that helps you install the dust filters. The cable is all right. It is nothing amazing, it fits with the theme, okay, but it is nothing of amazing quality. I would recommend upgrading the cable, to a better two-pin, when possible. I have heard the Moondrop “Autumn Moon” is a fantastic choice, albeit being £78. Conclusion Always wanted a pair of IEM’s that is a different adventure every time you use them? Yeah, the Starfield’s are one of those IEM’s. From the unique design to the very delicate and natural sound, it’s a listening experience, I simply can’t recommend enough.

The delivery was very legit and got it with free shipping to Canada as indicated. The product itself sounds excellent although I recommend investing in some new tips as the ones provided are poor quality, otherwise, the packaging looks very nice. They did a good job on the presentation and the product itself sounds great.
