Moondrop CHU II
Its 10mm dynamic driver uses an aluminum-magnesium alloy dome diaphragm to achieve sub-0.05% nonlinear distortion, yielding detailed treble extension and natural timbre. A user-replaceable brass CNC acoustic nozzle and a rugged alloy casting cavity add durability and tuning flexibility at a low cost. This pair is best suited for analytical listeners on a budget who prioritize dissecting subtle details in music over call quality.
