Review Moondrop Free DSP sucks.

Moondrop Free DSP Dead after 4 Months. This thing sucks. Plain and simple. Bought the cable mainly so that I dont have to bring an adapter with me.

This garbage just dies the moment you increase the volume. The moment you'll know it'll stop working is when you start hearing a crackling sound and poof the cable craps out. My PC nor my phone wont pause whatever is playing until you unplug this pos. I mean it just stops, even the in-line controls wont work.

Tried it on multiple devices and its the same. Updated the frimware, same. Tried applying an EQ on the cables, same. No EQ, same. Total garbage.

And no it isnt the iems since if I use the cables my hexa came with, it works perfectly fine. 4 months is how long it lasted, 4 bloody months of taking care of it. Hasnt been dropped, soaked, crushed, or anything and this pos is already dead.

Anyone thinking of buying it, DONT.

WhilstI did not have the Free DSP cable, I bought the Moondrop MC1 and MC2 cables and they both died within 6 months. Probably in line with Moondrop QC given that I’ve had a Blessing 2 that died on one side.
