For anyone interested, i've created an open-source Moondrop Dawn control app for Android 12 and higher:

It currently only supports the 4.4mm version, if someone wants to help out with supporting the 3.5mm version, feel free to message me.

Behold the Moondrop flagship.

Moondrop is at its best making single dynamic driver IEM.

A sexy looking thing for sure, but how does it stack up in terms of sound vs other models? Not for bass heads for sure, but the treble looks wonky too from the measurements I've seen.

Jiu is a Chu with USB-C + DSP. I wonder how far they are going upwards in their line. Aria DSP? Kato DSP? Blessing2 DSP? S8, Solis?

... kxxs, starsfield and aria

those 3 seem to be (almost) the same IEM. Can you hear any differences?

Isn't Moondrop's flagship IEM the Solis?

the kxxs and aria seems to have a bit more treble than starsfield and kxxs has a touch more resolution than aria

sounds like buying the cheapest one would be the best choice.
Or at least, I cannot see any reason to pay ~$100 more for the 'top level' kxxs.

The shop owner gave me a huge discount for the kxxs which I could not refuse , otherwise I would have gotten the kato.

I received the Quarks DSP yesterday (and the Truthear Hexa)... and the Quarks DSP are just ridiculously good IF you like the Harman in ear target. For 15 bucks... this has to be one of the best deals in audio right now.

As with the Truthear Zero (or the Variations...), the upper midrange is on the more aggressive side... but there's (to my ears) more bass and less shout to the Quarks than the Zero.

and the Truthear Hexa).

What about them? Of course they are more neutral than Zeros.

Have been listen Dawn 3.5 few months time to time. Can't hear any difference with my headphones (HE400se, HD600) compared to DX3Pro+ except slightly less volume.

Out of interest can you get it working with the link app. I can't use link on either iOS or Android 12.

Works well for me, but I have Android 11 on my phone. However, to make it work, I needed to download the most recent version of the app from the Moondrop website. It didn't work from the app I downloaded from Play store

By the way I use the Dawn 4.4 with the brilliant USB Audio Player Pro for Android where you can do PEQ on 10 bands. When I plug in my Dawn 4.4, it is automatically detected by the app.

I forgot to mention that I use a USB otg converter between my phone and the Dawn
