Going to wrap up the full review of NF NM2+ soon. Love its vivid sound. One of my top IEM recommendations in 2020.

is it better than OH-10?

That's a tough one. OH10 has more sub-bass than the NM2+. The NM2+ is more analytical and detailed.

Here we go, NF NM2+ Review.
Nothing but praise for this IEM. Brilliant! Enjoy & Happy Listening, as always!

Can someone compare the nm2+ with the Moondrop Starfield?

Many thanks!

Just compared them and I honestly don't think there is any need for comparison to start off with as NM2+ is superior to Starfield in all aspects. NM2+ is just in a league of its own. More defined bass, clearer and cleaner midrange with higher transparency level, more extended and airier treble. Soundstage is holographic. NM2+ is a must have IEM. Cheers.

Just have to add my universal warning with it though. If one is very sensitive to prominent upper midrange frequencies, use caution with the NM2+. However, it seems that those that found it too hot initially, over time, and with tip/cable rolling, became accustomed to the sound and ended up loving it.

So been listening to the NM2+ for like the last 48 hours straight. Initial impressions were very bad, balanced tips straight stabbed me in the brain. Swapped to the bass tips and massive difference, went from unlistenable to possibly beating my DK2001. Weirdly, they remind me of my old Campfire Orions just with way more extension on both ends and better in every conceivable way. Mids are delicious on these. Currently doing the Bass tips with the 'Metal' EQ preset on the Shanling M2X to add a little more bite.

Yes, I like the NM2+ more with bassier/narrower bore tips rather than wide bore. I really liked the SpinFit CP145 tips a lot, but they didn’t fit on the nozzle well. Now I’m using Final Audio E tips.

Yeah, I tried some Azla Sedna tips and they opened up the sound a bit but I felt they were too bright and I couldn't keep a good fit. I'll have to get some more tips and experiment since that seems so important with these.

Yep, those were exactly my impressions as well.

I concur. Recommended 3rd party tips: Acoustune AET07/AET08

My guess would be that the dynamic driver needs some time to break in adequately.

Unfortunately, online, things tend to get blown out or proportion way too quickly (NOT you @Nabillion_786). I think your legit experience with your 2 copies of the NM2+ has already yielded other’s conclusions that QC is poor with the NM2+ and that there is a lot of sample variation. Those massive assumptions are also already being parroted.

Just to clarify, I appreciate you sharing your experiences @Nabillion_786, and you are in no way responsible for other people jumping to conclusions.

There are a lot of herd opinions that are quickly formed, true. There is unit variance with the NM2+, from the limited accounts we have. I don't see that as a major QC issue, a certain amount of unit variance is acceptable.

The overwhelming majority of opinions here indicate that the NM2+ is an excellent reference-style IEM. The best in its price category, and able to take on much more expensive IEMs. There's a little variation, maybe, but the basic quality seems to be there. I'm kicking myself for not picking one up for $126 during 11.11. It's getting the most enthusiasm across-the-board from users.

I have three sets of NF Audios and at least from my experience, all of them have excellent channel matching. I feel their QC is quite good from reading this thread.

Where did you see them for $126? Any idea if it's worth paying more currently ~$145 from Shezenaudio in the upcoming black Friday deals, to get their 2 year warranty?

That price was with some stacked coupons, sorry should have mentioned that earlier.
