Apun ne jab ye product ka naam dekha, laga ye chinese log apun ko gali de rahe hai. Fir bhi maine Kharida kyunki ek guruji ne recomend kiya, pehle toh ye gurujis na bohut ache hai, ye IEMs na Ekdum kadak hai. Details lajawab hai. Soundstage lagta hai apun stage ke samne hai aur volume bhi acha hai deusre IEMs jaisa nahi ke phone pe full volume karna padta hai, 40 - 50% bohut loud ho jata hai. Eartips bohut ache hai aur koi bhi size use karo ears ke bahar niklenge hi nahi. Headphonezone ye eartips seperatly bhi becho kyunki ye Lajawab hai eartips.
Coming from the perspective of a person who has listened to more than 100 IEM's. These are one of the most neutral-sounding ones for the price they are available at. The only small flaw in the tuning is that these have a little hash metallic timbre which results in these sounding shrill and fatiguing after like 2-3 hours of listening. Towards the 8kz range, there is a little spike that can be toned down a little bit by using foam ear tips. Detail resolving is one of the strengths of the product and I would give it an A+ for that (only for the price otherwise it is a respectable B if seen in a vacuum). Lastly coming to sound staging, it is fine just like 80% of the IEMs I have tested and listened to.
The biggest problem that was faced by me with this product is the mic. I have tried 4 different sources and have absolutely different results from them:
1. With a redmi note 10 phone, volume buttons become next track and previous track buttons.
2. With a POCO X3, as soon as it connects it blocks the mic for calls and recording and the buttons don't respond to any presses.
3. on a oneplus device everything works
4. And lastly on a Samsung phone the mic and play-pause button work but the volume buttons do not work
This was my first moondrop purchase(Shenzhen audio) not headphonezone. I can say it was a waste of money atleast for me. I use my blon bl 03 with and without apple dac and the volume is surprisingly loud even at 50%. But this is not the case with the chu. Even at 70% its not that loud and above 70 treble starts piercing your ears. So its only good at home. Maybe its the problem with my unit. There's no thumping bass even with eq. Don't buy if you listen to EDM and POP.
Not happy with the output. Sound signature is too muffled-up. It's not like the previous IEMs / Earphones I have purchased. Initially I thought it was me who found it so, but, my sons also said so...
Hi Headphonezone Team, can I raise a exchange ticket, and instead purchase something really better?
Awaiting your response.
Thanks for your help and support always 👍

Writing this review after listening it for 3 days straight and not straight out of box so as to take in all the details.
Coming from Kz ZS10pro, i always used to feel that zs10pro is very detailed but really harsh. Can even give you headache with spike.
I knew that chu had a less harsh sound profile because of its tuning and it was so.
It is adequately detailed and good soundstage for its price. (Even better than double the price iems)
The tonalty is great and tbh, thats where it separates itself from the rest. If you’re thinking whether to buy it or not? Then just buy it. Best 2k spent.
Even my non-audio-enthusiast friend decided to order it after hearing it but its out of stock so, lets see.
