On the Starfield, male vocals carry a little more weight and gravitas, and feels closer to the listener, whereas they are lean and clean on the FDX1. While it doesn’t have the same rock guitar bite and attack, it’s still very satisfying, yet always maintains a pleasant demeanor. In comparison the Starfield sounds a little richer, thicker and more laid back in the upper midrange to lower treble transition.
Rock guitars have more bite, more attack.
#MOONDROP ARIA VS STARFIELD DRIVER#
A more technical dynamic driver bass meets a more fun and full dynamic driver bass. This is where the FDX1 really shines some may find it too lean but it’s tight and detailed, and the more pleasant and full bass of the Starfield is a bit soft and hazy in direct comparison. However, the FDX1, while leaner down low, hits cleaner with more precise texturing. Starfield with Ortofon tips JVC with Ortofon tips and green filtersīass on Starfield hits harder and rumbles louder. You couldn’t touch this quality for under $400 back when I first joined Head-Fi. Accessories are minimal and not really worth going into detail regardless its a powerful package for a mere $109. It definitely contributes to the outer space vibe. They have a matching blue/purple braided cable.
#MOONDROP ARIA VS STARFIELD PRO#
The shells appear to be the same as the Kanas Pro but with a blue/purple metallic paint instead of a metal finish. Instead I’m thinking, man that song was great, I wonder what’s next on the random rotation.Īesthetically the Starfield is a very attractive IEM. Staging and resolution on the other hand are just average, yet somehow this is a plus- the Starfield just lets the music wash over me without constantly analyzing everything. Tonality is great it’s very natural sounding. Treble is just a little under neutral for an ever so slightly laid back and forgiving presentation. Mids are natural, with slight heft to my ears, and sit well in the pocket drawing your attention in. It’s got really satisfying punch and rumble.
Bass is pleasantly boosted over neutral without sounding bassy. While it’s more neutral than most stuff out there, it’s not exactly a reference type tuning.
The Starfield is what I would call a warm and smooth take on a neutral signature. Reviews of Moondrop Starfield and Blessing 2 (+ Illumination and Aria)
