Product Description
Moondrop’s SSR and Starfield earphones earned dedicated fans worldwide with their sleek form factors and vivid sound quality. Now, the brand is taking the best parts of each of these models and putting them into an all-new IEM Read More
My waifu sits on my desk and greets me for the work day. Cables a little noisy but we’re here for the looks anyway, right? Great looking ‘buds, definitely the best for spoken word: audiobooks, podcasts, YouTube, but they’ll make it through a song if you aren’t being too discerning.
I've been a more casual audio equipment consumer until this (recently, I've owned the Sony WH-1000XM3, Galaxy Buds+, AirPods Pro (2nd), Jaybird Vista 2, etc.). It wasn't a mind-blowing entry to the audiophile hobby, but my audio experience was above-average for someone who doesn't seek extraordinary bass. Focused sound delivery with okay output volume. I throw these around in my bag and they get tangled but no scratches thus far...design is great other than the big white logo on the black center piece. If they matched the stardust theme that would've been a dream.
When I bought these, I completely misread the title. I clearly wasn't paying that much attention, because I was expecting a pair of Starfields to be arriving at my doorstep, and not the repainted SSRs that I ended up receiving. I remember being very disappointed when I opened the package and read "Stardust" on the package.
Now these earbuds are always in my bag.
I've tried out a lot of different IEMs in the two or three years that I've gotten deeper and deeper into headphones and audio in general, and very few have been as pleasing to me as these have been. After trying a few different Tin Hifi buds, the Blon BL-05s's, and even the P1s, nothing has been so easy for me to toss into my bag since I picked up the Tanchjim Coras I bought in 2019.
They're not perfect; they can be lackluster in bass and are not the most clearly resolving IEMs I've ever heard, but there's something about them that just makes them pleasant for me. They have one of the best fits for my ears (after swapping the tips out for some of moondrop's spring tips, the stock ones were just awful), and sound good enough that I don't feel the need to look for something better right now.
I'm also rating 5 stars despite not really liking the price for these in particular. The general consensus seems to be that they are just repainted SSRs without any change in tuning, and considering the SSRs are $25 less right now on Amazon I would recommend those over the Stardust unless you really enjoy the paint job. Big fan of the sparkly blue myself
