Design
The SSR features well-constructed, liquid metal alloy housings. Forged from two pieces and held together with a single hex screw, it looks and feels very study though the seam between the two parts is quite visible.
Designed with a unique housing for the SSR,the ergonomic design assists in easy insertion and removal of the earpiece. Therefore, ensuring a proper fit while maintaining the highest sound quality.
The SSR uses a single (Beryllium-coated dome) dynamic driver for the neutrally tuned IEM.The acoustic engineers at Moondrop tuned the new SSR according to the diffuse field sound target. Therefore, the sound signature should be fairly neutral.
The midrange is clear, tonally accurate and realistic. There’s a lot of detail and both female and male voices are well reproduced. Treble boost they even feel open and enough spacious to handle live tracks.
