I’ve been contemplating this for almost half a year now. I recently moved back to Android from Apple and first I thought I’ll just get another wireless set of earbuds. The more I thought about it though my mind has gone more towards maybe doing a portable DAC + a pair of really nice sounding wired buds.
The absolute max I think I can spend on the buds themselves are around $300. I can be flexible but I am not looking in the Sennheiser 600 ballpark haha.
So if you have any recommendations, experiences or just have some tips to what to look out for please share them with me!
Moondrop IEMs are really good. They’re tuned very well. I have the Moondrop Chu and they sounds great especially for casual listen, though they cheap out on the cables and they’re non detachable. I think it’s intentional to differentiate their product lineup, otherwise people wouldn’t have any reason to buy their more expensive models.
