![]() ![]() String plucks in Sting's "Shape of my heart" were executed flawlessly to complement his vocals without pushing them back. In the same manner that vocals are well defined, instruments are also very well defined, especially guitars. Fleetwood Mac’s “Never Going Back Again” had beautiful vocals that were so well defined. The mid-range is exceptionally well-tuned, because it's kept clean and leaves a lot of room for the lower and upper-midrange, allowing vocals to be brought to life. The midrange is where the Starfields shine. I don't feel like the bass is jumpy and energetic like it could be, and it just leaves me wanting more. This is evident in "The Pretender" by Foo Fighters, as even though the guitars and singing were fast and came with great attack, the kick and toms did not have the same level of performance. Furthermore, it seems that the bass isn't pushing the track along at the same pace as the rest of it. The kick in Frank Ocean's "Lost" lacks grunt, it's more like a hollow thump without the density a kick should have. The bass line in Mac Miller’s “Circles” is so gentle, and doesn’t slam it in your face, which I am grateful for, as the overall song has a very slow tempo. It is neither aggressive nor energetic, nor the opposite it finds itself in a decent spot. Nevertheless, the bass response remains very smooth. Starfield does not excel at bass response. As a result, this gives Starfield’s representation a really enjoyable, and very dynamic listening experience. Compared to a “flat” tuning, this particular tuning has more elevation in the bass range and treble. The Starfields are tuned to a “Harman curve”, or “Harman target”. Although I am quite late to the release of the Starfield’s, I am glad I still decided to purchase them, because wow, these are worth the purchase. Since the release of the popular Kannas Pro in 2017, Moondrop has become one of the fastest-growing “Chi-Fi” IEMs makers.
