    Moondrop VENUS Planar (and PARA): two surprisingly good orthodynamic headphones at a still reasonable price. Moondrop COSMO Planar: New Flagship.

    Hi there. For the FR (in spoiler below), it seems quite promising: slightly less bass than the VENUS's stock pads, but a more even midrange and treble. For the dimensions, if the Dekoni Elite hybrid Hifiman HE pads are suitable in dimensions for the COSMO, they will also suit the VENUS. Imho...

    Moondrop VENUS Planar (and PARA): two surprisingly good orthodynamic headphones at a still reasonable price. Moondrop COSMO Planar: New Flagship.

    Hello everyone. Do you trust a FR measurement site? We'll see. Based on these measurements (in spoiler below) I have just ordered, for my COSMO, the Dekoni Audio EPZ-HIFIMAN-HYB (hybrid) pads for HiFiMan HE Series. Ref...

    Indeed ! :) Separate power supply for my Audiomat Maestro Reference dac: 2 x 350 VA ultra low noise transformers. Note : Explanation of this strangeness: these are the remnants of an old high-end hi-fi system for loudspeakers. Old system (in spoiler) Since then, I've switched to...

    Hello everyone. To wake you up a bit (it's evening in France), there's nothing like listening to a bit of Speed Metal (Painkiller from Judas Priest), with a scoop from Sina-drums (nb: the score was uploaded just 8 hours ago; and already more than 3K views...). To listen to the COSMO (equipped...

    Hello everyone. Another headphone comparison this afternoon (in France), including the Sennheiser HD-560S. Listening to this excerpt from Hans Zimmer's Pirate of the Caribbean at a fortissimo passageway where it's hard to assemble more musical instruments for a rock concert (see photo below)...

    Hello everyone. If, in the opinion of the majority (?) (*), the Sennheiser HD-600 (2021) is a headphone that, tonally speaking, borders on perfection (note: technically speaking, there are even better than this electrodynamic headphone, especially with the very good planar and e-stat...

    Don't be disappointed with the COSMO: its potential is obvious. Technically speaking, the COSMO is among the very best headphones on the market; imho it's on the same technological level as the Audeze LCD-5, which also features a 500 nm-thick “nanometric” membrane. Tonally speaking, forget the...

    Hello everyone. I've just been listening to the COSMO, still equipped with the PARA's hybrid pads (which never leave it) with my Audiomat CD player, still with the Viva 2A3 tube amp, on different kinds of music, including piano with the French composer Claude Debussy. Listening to the piano...

    Hi. If you want really excellent headphones that work very well on the simple sound card of a gamer PC, with quality bass, a very nice midrange and a slightly brilliant treble (in the manner of a Hifiman), with a spacious soundstage, well I personally use the Sennheiser HD 400 Pro (which must...

    Hello. A headphone can't please everyone, especially if you're addicted to Hifiman sound. That said, here's what two VENUS reviewers have to say about them. Link of this review here: https://headfonics.com/moondrop-venus-review/ Link of this review here...
