MoondropMay DSP Earphone USB-C DSP Dynamic+Planar Driver Hybird in-Ear Earbuds with Interchangeable Cable

I have owned this product for over a year. If you are someone who is looking for a product with a microphone and high quality sound quality, but does not want to worry about charging, this is the perfect fit. The cord is also durable and can be changed out if you are having issues at any point. So far, I have experienced no signs of wear and tear and it has been over 1 year. I have wrapped them in their luxurious leather carrying case, stuffed them in my pockets, shoved them in my backpack. They are still in perfect shape. It is an excellent value for the money, I hope to have these for life!These are lightweight and portable IEMs that come with a beautifully crafted carry case - you feel like you can pack away and protect your world! Ensure to use the case, because it can prevent the male wires from getting bent and shifted.The life of this product is excellent, and be sure to keep an eye on the male prongs connected to the wire to ensure they are situated flush against the IEMs. They can of course shift with use over time.I searched endlessly for IEMs that included a microphone. I anticipated using them for working to seamlessly transition between listening and hopping on calls, however I still use my Senneheiser work headset like I am at a call center or something since the microphone quality is not the best.The microphone can work decently if you place the microphone directly up to your mouth. You can always replace the wire if the market comes up with a wire that has a great mic (not sure if one is out there after many months of searching.)The tune is excellent for these Moondrops, they are clear and sharp. They capture elegant details and are smooth to listen to. They are beautiful and come in such gorgeous packaging, it really is a special experience.I love music!

Enjoying the May's so far. Nicely balanced sound slightly leaning on the airy side with an analog cable. The tips are a pain to install but will go on. The ear fit is excellent and they feel light and comfortable. I really enjoy listening to acoustic rock with these. The bass is there but not the focus, the mids, vocals and treble really shine. A refreshing change to v shaped balance that dominates the market.

I'm not usually someone who EQ's headphones - I like them to sound the way the designer tuned them. But with the moondrop app (have to download the APK for android on their site) the degree and precision of the EQ tuning is HUGE. And the side perk is they're a standard 2 pin 0.78mm design on the cable with a slight recess, so anything you want with a 2 pin design can just plug right in.The cable also actually plays nice with dolby atmos on my phone - a rarity. It sounds fun and lively, instead of weird and unnatural.The biggest boon to the cable that had me leery is that I'm super, SUPER sensitive to "amp click" and low level hiss. the quark DSP was unusable because of that. But I'm happy to report this cable is silent on both sides. No hiss, no click when you're not playing anything and scrolling through youtube.The IEM's work just fine with a regular 2 pin too. Sound is great. These really do sound like a solid $100-150 IEM. I definitely prefer the simgot EM6L to these, but these are a little smoother, trading a little detail and soundstage for cohesiveness.They're gorgeous looking too. And the semi-custom fit is just right for me with some shallower tips.They're a fun tuning at baseline, a little warm-neutral V shaped. The micro planar really is nice and textured - something I like when companies leave in. I think I like them a little more than the aria 2, but they're just a bit more grown up and the aria goes for pure fun. But I'm sure you could tune these to get there as well.It would have been nice if the cable came with a reverse type C to 3.5mm adapter but that's asking a lot, this thing already delivers a ton for the money.The only thing I think is a little odd is the diameter of the nozzle. It's REALLY wide. It's not a super deep/wide design like the truthear zero, which was like trying to fit a cannon down your ear canal (and thus was super uncomfortable for me) but since the tip does the fitting, it's comfortable. It just is WIDE, so fitting tips on it can be annoying. The stock tips were actually a real pain to fit on them. But they'll accept most tips - dunu SS, TRN T tips, coreir brass, everything normal fits, it's just a challenge to put them on for some.And I do wish it had the brass detachable nozzle and replaceable filters of the chu II and Aria II. That really is a superb design choice that the may lacks.Truthfully, there are no deal breakers here. The price they're asking would be almost fair for the cable alone - a really nice DSP and EQ tunable cable is impressive with no click or hiss. And then throw some $100-150 sounding IEM's in as well? Nobody tell moondrop, they forgot to put a 1 in front of their price.

These sound really good. The problem is that they have severe air pressure build-up. How is this even possible, considering they have 2 vents? I couldn't wear these for more than 5 minutes without severe discomfort.
