Spot on Review. I just got the Chu‘s. I‘ve been using AirPods Pro for 3 years now and I was never satisfied with the sound quality. The moment I put in the Chus and browsed through some songs, I was shocked. Incredible to what crappy sound I got used to. It sounds so much more well defined and rounded, nicer treble, deeper, clearer bass and the separation is night and day. Soundstage is the most shocking to me. In comparison, it’s non existent on the AirPods Pros. Selling the AirPods because now I simply can’t go back. I gladly sacrifice convenience for better sound quality.

My issue with the Chus is that when I got mine, right out of the box, it had this annoying super thin ringing. Sometimes it disappears but the fact that it happens is a bit, meh. Maybe it only happens with the mic version coz when I use a DAC dongle that doesn't have mic support, the tinnitus-like ringing does not appear at all. Another issue is that the texture of the cable is kinda weird. I say weird coz it's the first cable I got with an IEM that, for some reason, keeps snagging onto things like some sticky tape. The Quarks's cable is better IMO. Another one is the Spring tips. I was happy with them at first, but overtime I find them lacking. They used to be sticky and a very good partner with the Chus. But the fact that it keeps falling off after getting a bit sweaty, is a bit of a turn off. And last but not the least, the one weakness almost every budget Moondrop IEM has, it is very prone to getting moisture in its buds and ends up getting muted. Living in a tropical country, I already had to switch the filters twice now. Quite annoying and I have to spend more to always fix them. I really want to love the Chus, and if I had to gift other people with good budget IEMs, this would be my #1 choice. But because of every cons I just mentioned, I am hesitant to recommend it. And if I did, I always have to put a big disclaimer to them. Maybe it would work better for people living in temperate countries. But getting a budget Moondrop IEMs while living in a very humid country, that's an expensive investment overtime. I would rather get the Kato if I want to forget about the filter problems 😅. The Chus sounds good tho. Certainly better than the Quarks.

You should try the 7hz salnotes zero. Much better than the Chu for me. They graph almost the same but with a few key differences. A bit less shouty high-midrange, less harsh treble and slightly elevated sub-bass. To me it fixed every weakness of the Chu while keeping all of the things that made the Chu amazing, thus is the undisputed king of the 20$. Also it has a detachable cable.
@papobacon7383 Жыл бұрын
but then, the CHU having a set of spring tips that cost more that 10$ if you buy it separately still makes it a better deal for me those spring tips are amazing normally earphones under 100$ only comes with cheap eartips so if you decide to upgrade you can still use the CHU spring tips.

Appreciate that Zac! Though if we’re talking about Soundpeats H1 then we need to find something bassy, and although the Aria has slightly more bass than usual Moondrop, it’s still more focused on the presentation of vocals. I haven’t tried a lot of other IEMs to give you a solid recommendation, but maybe you can try Blon BL03 that doesn’t cost much, or BGVP DN3 also comes to mind (this is still balanced but punchy on the low end)

@@namedkenn then it could become the best contender on the budget market right now! The combination of good tuning with better bass and superior technicality would be a killer. I think you should make a video on EQing this little guy.

Bro spatial audio di tws ga ngaruh kah, kebetulan sy ini penguna wired iem under 5jt ,tapi akhir ini mulai jenuh pegen pindah tws karena tertarik anc/ambientnya tapi kalo diliat dividio iem ratusan ribu aja udah menang ya sound quality ya lawan tws premium 😒
@nathankirt376 2 жыл бұрын
Yang dibilang menang itu bagian teknikalitas dan black background bro, kalau soal Tonal tws premium 1.2jt+ masih menang kok lawan iem 200-500rb an (iem di harga segitu kan masih banyak yg kasar/ngebass bgt) Kecuali kalau kayak Tin T2plus tuh yg cuma 600k bisa ngelawan tws 1.5jt kek Tevi / Mtw300. Tapi kalau udah pakai iem 1-4jt mau upgrade ke tws susah bro wkwk, tws 7jt pun masih bisa dikalahin sama iem 2-4jt kek Shuoer S12, 4Acoustics 4p, blessing 2 dkk. *Suara $20iem=279$tws itu sbenernya gak juga kok, gak sejauh itu perbandingan nya, Yg kebanyakan disetujui itu 1:2 atau 1:3 😀 Tws emg g usah diharapin soal suara, yang penting nyaman buat dipake aktifitas dengan expirience nya yg lebih modern

I'm Indian and ordered this IEM Moondrop Chu its my first IEM @1800Rs yet to be delivered. I don't know without bass I'll like it or not. I'm not heavy bass lover but the bass should kick in where it should be appreciated. So far I've tried Senheiser CX275S (best earphone I've ever heard in my life) but they stopped working after 2 year. Currently I'm using Oppo enco M31 hi res wireless earphone. Let see what Chu is capable of.

As an Indian as well, the best budget earphones available (excluding the Chi-fis) would be any Beyerdynamic offering. I don't like the budget offerings by Skullcandy, JBL, audio technica, Sennheiser, soundmagic, Sony anymore. And I've tried quite a few of them. Most of them are either aggressively V shaped or bass heavy. I don't know what is it with companies marketing a whole lot of bass to Indians. It's just the quantity of bass, not the quality of it. It's just a muddy mess.
