Photographed & Measured: Moondrop Illumination

The Moondrop Illumination is a single dynamic-driver earphone in the premium segment that is optically characterized by its gold coating. At an impedance of 25 Ω and a sensitivity of 124 dB/mW, the Moondrop Illumination is driven easily with any phone – but benefits greatly from a healthy source.

I received the Illumination from Moondrop on loan upon my request. Thank you very much to Chengdu. My full review:
