Yes. Again no mid bass and bright tuning, just Moondrop… :upside_down_face:

The claim seems to be accurate, and not really new: they try to achieve what they want by the use of an acoustic chamber rather than peaks and dips in tuning. AFAIK, campfire and earsonics already use these kind of technology. I guess it’s harder to achieve than with crossover frequency tuning, but I reckon the result is better overall.

As for moondrop’s own attempt, we’ll see.

At least it looks like they calmed down that mid-bass dip.

Never have I ever seen nozzles like these

Beautiful like feathers!

This one.

Seems to have some Sonion Acupass DNA in it. The side firing hole likely has some low pass effect and the tiny dot at the top/center should help suppress the usual planar upper-treble gain.

disappointing. the 1 outstanding feature of iDSD was it runs on 5v so you can just take it with you wherever you go and run it in phone power bank, it could power HD600, decent dac, nice safe sound, obviously replaceable battery… this runs on 9v in a world full of china made dac-amps. I guess they had a meeting: “What?!? they say you can keep our product for longer and find use outside we agree they should use it? they can run in it on WHAT? make sure this never happens again.”
