This was my first IEM. I’m writing this review after 6 months. To be honest i was not impressed by it initially but after few weeks the sound improved alot. I’m using it with iPhone, apple dongle dac and Apple Lossless Music. But i have observed that with laptop the sound quality improves slightly by giving you more soundstage and the bass. I feel that with a good dac the sound quality will improve alot.

The clarity, detailing and the soundstage are one of the best coming from blons, KZs and heart mirror, couldn't be happier with the purchase.

Sound amazing listened only for 2 hours tho but still noticed many improvements over my last set

Aria has amazing drivers and tuning.

I don't care about the paint bubbling and chipping issue.

I don't care about the accumulation of moisture around the driver that muffles the sound.

It's the QC issue not the driver and tuning issue.

If you learn to remove the moisture and properly fit the filters, Aria delivers.

The overall tuning. The punch of bass. Everything is perfect.

Aria comes alive with Shanling UA2 Plus as well as Shanling UA1 Pro for me with my iPad 10th generation in combination of Apple Music subscription set at Hi Res Lossless output.

My iAwake WAV meditation tracks sound amazing and my meditation sessions are so much more rewarding and fulfilling.

If Aria is a compromise due to paint and moisture issue, it's a good compromise due it's audio driver and amazing tuning.

I don't care about 20 drivers fitted in one IEM.

I care about one well tuned dynamic driver.

I am grateful headphone zone for bringing such a vast range of audiophile hardware and accessories within the reach of Indians.

I purchased this after a lot of time spent on reviews and though there were a few praiseworthy headphones available around similar price range I went for Aria because of its balanced sound signature. Coming from KZ ZSN Pro X, Moondrop Aria really feels worthy upgrade. The clarity is really good and bass does not overkill. I added my few years old FiiO E11 amp the result appears even better. The headphone is heavier but fits well in ears and does not feel heavy even after hours of listening. Loseless music is where it shines even more.

Also HPZ team did a great job in delivering the headphone quickly. Thank you for making the purchase enjoyable.

Just phenomenal, nothing’s there to say !! Aria, that’s Aria 🥳

This my first audiophile grade iem and i am a nube audiophile
When i unboxed it was surprised by its weight and good built i thought it will get tiring due to its weight and at first time i thought it doesnt have much bass but i surprised after burning them just for 10 hour its sound so good and balanced even at low volume i can hear every part of song with descent sound stage and its not tiring at all it fits really well its really comfortable on my ears
Really thanks to headphonezone for getting correct and adequate information

Sound is brilliant, no doubt. Quality is bad. Right earpiece stopped within 4 months of minimal use and while taking utmost care using the provided carrying case. You can see other reviews like mine having the exact complaint. This is poor manufacturing. Other products which I use, like Marshall & SoundMagic are working well over 4 & 5 years now, respectively. This will be my last purchase from Moondrop and it will be safe to stay away from new Chi-fi products. I raised a Warranty complaint & let to hear back anything from HZ. But I am sceptical about what happens after warranty ends. There's no refund on this product as per HZ. I am in dire straits. Don't make my mistake. Pay extra and buy from reputed brands like Marshall, Bose, Sony so to speak.

The HYPE is genuine. I ultimately made the decision to purchase the aria's after conducting considerable research online. They certainly lived up to my expectations. These are very stunning and they have a fantastic sound. I'm utterly sucked in. There is adequate bass and I can hear every detail. If you're searching for an IEM and this falls within your budget, I'd say look no further and jump on the hype train. I'm sure you won't be disappointed.

Through the last 2 months I've tried various sets under 10k Thanks to HPZ's Trade-up Program. I've gone through Dioko, Olina, Olina SE, Titan S and now Aria. I believe I finally found what I would like to keep now. + I got it for the sale price Rs.6990. :)

Started my audiophile journey with moondrop aria, so far ausome experience.

After Using a weak I was writing the review.

My Usage:
1. I was connected this IEM to my DAC and listen my Playlist.
2. When I unboxed the IEM and listened to it for the first time, I was disappointed with sound. After Burning the IEM for hours it sounds great.

Sound:
The Aria is not for Bass Head's.
1. It gives nice sub bass and mid bass is punchy.
2. Mid range is clear and clarity with instruments seperation
3. The Treble is crisp and detailed (not harsh).
4. Overal the it is suitable for all generic music.

Build & Design:
1. The IEM comes in Metal bulid and Attractive Design feels premium.
2. The fit & size of the IEM is comfortable for long usage for me, but it may different for other.
3. The cable is soft texture and doesn't make noise while rubbing.
4. They only provide different sizes of sillicon eartips, No foam ear tips.

Conclusion:
If you're looking for balanced, but not neutral sound you won't get anything better than this IEM in this price range.

awesome sound, great fit, sleek design loved it <3
only thing I would change is add a mic to it
had to buy extra cable with mic to fix that
