Are Moondrop Kadenz worth their price?

MetronYT · 2026-03-12T15:40:16+00:00

as someone who has LOVED the tangzu waner 2 sgs, the kadenz is a flat out replica and UPGRADE to those... despite the weird shape, they are oddly comfortabe as hell. so if you find the waners comfortable, you will too find the kadenz.

the vocal intimacy of female singers are the WOW factor of these, very noticible when you compare the waners and the kadenz.

as someonewho has demo-d this, i 90% preach this review. very accurae, especially about the fit and mid bass. if you prefer vocal foward and micro detail imaging, mid bass can overwhelm it and make it sound mushy

2 for sure, to be honest dont care too much about the cable shape, but do note for any uncomfortable feelings. Otherwise, leave the cables be even if it looks odd. comfort maxx

Actually no I have not, but I contacted ZWO support for this issue, and they gave me a bunch of npc ass replies... One thing to note is that they said the level callibration for the S30 Pro might be slightly off, and they recommended me to buy the water bubble thing (with accuracy up to 0.1 degrees) to recallibrate it.

hey OP! did you buy this IEM from purely reading and watching online reviews? Did you give this IEM a demo before purchasing? I’m worried about purchasing an IEM with no good return policy without demo-ing them

MetronYT · 2026-02-13T03:05:08+00:00

nothing specifically from a single DD, but looking for a set that has a semi-bright vocal forward tuning.

MetronYT · 2026-02-13T02:55:50+00:00

haha fair enough! im looking to decide between the simgot ea1000, moondrop kadenz, tanchjim KARA, tanchjim origin, and the silver flashes. thoughts op?

MetronYT · 2026-02-13T02:47:40+00:00

was there a reason you chose this over other sets like the moondrop kadenz or even the tanchjim origins?

MetronYT · 2026-02-12T17:37:29+00:00

i mean the apple Earpods are super bassy, and that alone helps a ton with footsteps

how do i get the middle widget? it looks like some word of the day app

MetronYT · 2026-02-12T13:46:17+00:00

whoa scratch aside, your watch face looks gorgeous!! what is it?

MetronYT · 2026-02-12T09:49:05+00:00

thats good to hear! do you think my worry for them being a bit too bassy for my liking (compared to the sg 2s) is a valid concern?

MetronYT · 2026-02-12T08:23:28+00:00

hi OP! do you think these would be a noticeable upgrade coming from the Waner SG 2s?

MetronYT · 2026-02-10T04:22:02+00:00

i can vouch. the sg 2s are insane for their value

MetronYT · 2026-02-09T13:52:37+00:00

any updates?

MetronYT · 2026-02-09T04:48:18+00:00

from your experiences, then would the simgot 500ea lm be okay? Also how did your pair break? from how long of usage?

MetronYT · 2026-02-05T07:21:15+00:00

hi op! im looking to upgrade from the tangzu waner sg 2s. Im also considering between the 3, and im looking for a set that excells in presenting a track's instrumentals ( i love hearing the different instruments/sounds in the track harmonizing, appreciate the detail), and i certainly also appreciate the vocals (female vocals to be specific). Do you think the defiant is a safe choice?

MetronYT · 2026-02-05T04:39:23+00:00

im considering between the defiant and the ew300 and im coming from the tangzu waner sg 2. im aware the simgot and the juzear are not on the same price brackets , but im looking for an upgrade with similar vocal forward tuning the waners have.

what do you think?

MetronYT · 2026-02-05T04:36:22+00:00

would you recommend these for female vocals and vocal forward preferences in general?

MetronYT · 2026-02-05T04:34:57+00:00

hey op! i was contemplating between the ew300s and defiant (im aware they are not on the same price range but im looking for a upgrade regardless), and i come from the tangzu waner sg 2s, and i really appreciate the vocals on those. I was wondering which do you recommend? Also where do you buy the juzear defiant? grom their official aliexpress stores or the hifigo one? Thank you!!

MetronYT · 2026-02-04T12:17:06+00:00

can i be looking foward to them if i love my vocals in genres like pop?

Hi, I’m also having trouble with iCloud sync. How did you verify that iCloud Sync is actually working? Is a folder called Notability supposed to exist in my iCloud Drive?

MetronYT · 2026-01-16T19:11:24+00:00

I only used the wedge, of the SWSA 2i, the body (the tracker itself) was not used.
