Moondrop Starfield 2
65 out of 100 medium confidence 12 reviews
The Moondrop Starfield II IEMs receive mixed feedback. Many users praise their build quality, metal shell, and clear sound, especially for female vocals and electric guitar. However, a recurring and serious issue involves the stock filters becoming clogged with moisture or debris, causing one earpiece to go silent, which frustrates several owners. The cable is also criticized for being uncomfortable over long periods, and some feel the value has decreased compared to newer competitors at the same price point.
