Nah lets actually use the product the way it's intended, or use EQ that was provided to us before it was released

guess u are willing to get rid of your 4.4 cables, higher end dacs and dongle. not me..it was not intended that way.. its marketing.. they couldnt deliver what they wanted and came up with a bandaid and called it a feature..

No one needs a 4.4 cable for an iem, you wasting money on toys has nothing to do with anyone else, and you don't have the right to tell anyone what impression to give . So I'm going to go ahead and give my DSP impressions when it arrives.

Sure go ahead.. plenty pro reviewers have already given the dsp and app impressions so umm dont think anyone cares for one more impression from someone random

No offense please, but I unsubscribed from this tread. I heard enough and move on with the quest of new IEMs which actually live up to the hype.

 

[HeadphoneAddict00]

and please lets just keep the feedback to analog for now... thats what most of us really care for

On the contrary, many are looking for impressions by those who aren't actually paid to do them and have no ties to Crin

Is trying the product you bought taking an L?

I had a feeling and while they are by no means bad sounding, the overall product is not that great tbh.

Should have mine in a few days in NY passed clearance. Will test with Topping G5, 4.4mm cable, Wavelet profiles. Not touching DSP cable or app lol.

The IEM/tuning has some good amount of detail, though the analogue tuning seems to have a little more treble emphasis. I might prefer it... not sure. Cymbals and female vocals sound cleaner without DSP, as does piano. To me, the increased bass of the DSP tuning makes the music sound more muddy, warmer sure, but also less focused on treble details. Lower mids and sub-bass seem to benefit most from the DSP default tuning. Electric rock guitar gains more thickness, which is nice.

I wonder if the muddiness you're hearing via DSP is because of the cheap DAC inside the DSP cable. The thing is so small and cheap that I have to imagine it's noisy AF. Add that to the lack of iPhone compatibility, and I wish Moondrop would just sell a cheaper version of the Dusk without the cable. I'm definitely much more interested in hearing about the analog cable experience rather than with the DSP cable.

I could not use any profiles with the dsp cable, I barely used it. My sound impressions are all with the analogue cable, using wavelet for the profiles.

Nvm. Figured out the source of my confusion. Ignore.

Here is a recording of the artifact that Listener was pertaining to from the Headphones.com Discord, and happy to say I don't hear it in my Dusk DSP cable from several USB-C sources including an Apple iPhone 15 Pro Max, a Poco F3 Android Phone, and a Dell dock connected to a Dell Latitude Windows 11 laptop.

Ooph. That's a bummer, but not terribly surprising with such a cheaply made DAC/DSP built into a tiny USB connector. If sales end up tanking, might be able to pick this up at a price closer to its Blessing 3 counterpart.

They denied my request of course. So if you wanna buy a practically new set... Message me.
