## Description

Moondrop Quarks Earphone Closed Anterior Cavity Micro Dynamic Driver IEM Earphone (With mic): desertcart.co.uk: Electronics & Photo

Review: S Tier Budget Bullets - These IEM's were a real surprise. I've been into headphones for a number of years, but have never really ventured into IEM's, until I heard that serviceable sound quality could be had for basically a tenner. I didn't believe it to be honest, but though I'd take the chance on them, and I'm so glad I did! I'm not gonna say that they have comparable sound quality to 300 quid audiophile headphones, but they are definitely serviceable as a daily driver. Pretty flat and neutral with a bit of a sub-bass boost makes for a pretty pleasant sound. Not the crispiest sound by any stretch, could be a bit clearer in the upper mids and treble but the impressive sound stage makes up for that in my opinion. 9/10 for sound, (taking cost into account obviously) Comfort and build quality wise they are very impressive! Especially in comfort, they are absolutely tiny, you can barely see them in your ear when wearing, and they're perfect for sleeping with. The cable feels sturdy enough whilst also being fairly flexible. There are some sharper edges on the plastic housing of the IEM's which is a bit of a shame but all in all, well worth the money Definitely worth picking up.
Review: Plain value - Relaxed sound with a touch of warmth and adequate extension towards both upper and lower ends of the register. Upper midrange peak at ~3kHz may create a slightly hollow tonality at times but is rarely noticeable. Bass region lacks some texture and definition, or could simply be described as smooth and rounded. Overall separation and clarity is also decent, but struggles slightly with soundstage. The outer portion of the housing has a pointed edge around the perimeter, and so most of the pressure will be dispersed around the ear tips, which probably does not do any favors to the noticeable amount of cable noise although far from overbearing. Otherwise the light, compact design should provide a comfortable fit for just about anyone. The included ear tips are decent, and the nozzle design also allows for some adjustment of the tips' positioning along its length. Given the price it would be unreasonable to knock Quarks down over these minor flaws especially when they compete well above their price bracket in sound, and although my pair developed a slight channel imbalance after a couple months (so unfortunately past the return window), I still find plenty of use out of them.

## Features

- Unique design with fully transparent and small shell, it is exquisite and full of geek flavors.
- Patented anti-blocking sound damping + Double damping structure
- Industrial design ---The appearance and structural design are just like its name, revealing its meticulousness, compact size and can be worn in various ways. The fully transparent cavity allows a clear view of the driver and acoustic structure. Simple and unique appearance.
- Unbelievable amplitude frequency response curve ---Two years of repeated adjustments, Quarks has achieved incredible excellent performance with a closed structure. It has a frequency response curve that is highly in line with HRTF (head related transfer function), bringing a natural and open sound field. Moderate bass gain makes Quarks more musical, bringing a fuller ambience sound.
- Powerful Composite magnetic micro diaphragm dynamic driver

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good quality budget headphones
*by J***E on 23 May 2024*

I got moondrop chu 2, which were absolutely great but I didn't like that style of headphone and found it hurt my ears. I returned them and got these - and they're really tiny and light so are really comfortable for me. I wanted something with volume buttons, small, and for a reasonable budget. The sound quality was pretty impressive for the price and size of them - not the absolute best, but I'm happy with it at this price range. One negative I've found is the wires are oddly stiff for headphone wires, which can make them prone to coming out if you knock the wires.
