The TWS Disaster You Need to Know About!

Moon drop could not have made a twws worse than this let me [Music] explain after the Epic success of $25 Moon drop space travel the expectations for Moon drop Golden Ages were Sky High especially with the implementation of planar magnetic drivers I ordered them on the first day of release and I got them in the April first week I tested them throughout the April but instead of New Era of audio I got disappointment let me break it down for you in The Good the Bad and the Ugly fashion and obviously detailed sound in the end wait for the ugly one it is literally a deal breaker let's start with the good and the first thing that everyone noticed on these CWS is going to be design the design is retro inspired with cool Shades of Gray blue with a pop of vibrant orange toed with with an old cassette player on the top of case the earbuds match these Vibes perfectly but this design is going to be a preference game personally I prefer my twws to be clean and minimal and I'm going to keep it as a showpiece only it's a very busy design with lots of nostalgia on it so while it is going to give you some happiness it is definitely not for everyone now moving on to controls controls on these twws are good they work almost every time they're minimal as well in the app itself you get all the option and you can customize them according to your needs however they are tad bit sensitive whenever you're adjusting the twws they tend to get activated the good thing is these twws fits very well and are very comfortable to wear so you are not going to adjust them a lot another good part about these twws is their transparency mode it was natural enough for everything I tried them in various settings and I had no problem with them except one that is they get a little louder in certain conditions like let's say some busy music is going on on the television or you are into a huge traffic they tend to get really loud on those trebly Peak ranges and especially those trebly part are a bit processed as well talking about loud we had one problem with moon drop space travel that they didn't get loud enough well this is not going to be an issue with your moon drop Golden Ages they get very loud very easily most of the time I tested them hardly at 30% volume at 30% they get really loud I would not even suggest you to go to 40 or 50% they are very loud twws and that's it about the good part for Moon drop Golden Ages all right let's spice up the critique talking about the bag let's talk about the build quality on these twws and I must say it's a plastic jungle out there there's no escaping the fact that the build quality streams cheap from every angle the case and the birds themselves lack that premium feel you would expect especially given their price tag it's a bit of a lead down considering the competition in this price range is doing fantastic and don't even get me started on What's Missing it's like they forgot to add any essential bells and whistles there where's the wear sensor where's dual pairing these are practically standard features nowadays in twws even for the $20 segment that is $2,000 INR it's like buying a car without AC and infotainment now let's talk about a ANC it's not up to par sure it might do an okay job with your lower frequencies but for the most Parts it's useless most of the frequency spectrum still remain unaffected but wait there's more brace yourself for the ugly Dru L deck oh L deck what a disappointment on these twws when you're listening to the music without lck they're good but the moment you that elex switch brace yourself for some base disaster in James Blake Limit to Your Love when the Bas barage come it feels like someone staggering a cloth or a carpet it's that bad you can practically perceive the diaphragm moving and struggling to keep up with the base and don't even get me started on the battery I activated ldac and before I knew it the battery was poof it was hardly alive for I would say around 2 and 1/2 hours that's it do let me know if any of you have these issues issues with dcws or I am the only one who fa these issues because these are some serious issues with dcws now let's talk about the case cover as well putting it on was a mistake I'm never going to repeat it took me half an hour to pry it of the case it was so tight I was afraid I will break the case it's such a flimsy case as well it was a nightmare I was scared I'm going to break the case I will not be able to review them it was a disaster and as for the app let's just say my thoughts from Moon drop May review still stands it's that one word again buggy especially the Apple version which might as well be labeled as unusable and the firware updates first there were nowhere to be found then suddenly three version popped up and guess what it didn't work it gets stuck on the initialization and I'm still on 1.0.0 oh and the mic quality pathetic doesn't even begin to cover it it's a $80 twws not a single call was tolerable on these twws not a single one talking about one Tech nightmare however let's just talk about sound because that is something we knew it is going to be good however is it let's find out all the impression of the sound are based on AAC and not on lde because as I explained in the ugly section about the base so on a I would say these sound almost exactly like Moon drop space travel with a slight difference in mid- base and upper travel so let's discuss in detail starting with the base base on Golden Ages is good with some thumb and Rumble present in the base and you feel it in all the songs it has a bass head preset as well which does not change much on the graph it looks like base is enhanced however in practicality I don't feel it if you listen to the song sadness part one around 13 second the base comes the thump is there however it's not a very satisfying base or a very voluminous base so I would say base is good however still on the average side now talking about the mids mids are the best part of these twws the mid-range is clear and present the overall separation and layering is outstanding however I did not like the Timber on these twws and the overall vocals are a little bit dull as well treel is also on a little bit of darker side in Golden Ages it lacks the Sparkle and a little bit of detail in the treble region the overall take on treble in Golden Ages is about smoothness which ultimately hurt the timber in the as well if you listen to Red Light Zone by Colonia the sparkle in the treble region is barely there however when it comes to detail and imaging Moon drop Golden Ages have Fair bit of details with them with a very good accuracy in terms of Imaging even in those busy tracks this is where you see the planard drivers working their magic however when it comes to Sound Stage I would say it is okay it gives you that sense of stage however it is not very wi but it is satisfactory where these t WS works best is rhythm and timing well it is Moon drop and their tuning kind of always works for rhythm and timing and it worked here as well it portrays the physicality of the music and the emotions in the music very well but the dynamic range is bad they sound really good on high volumes however on low volumes they lose the body of the music and the thumb is just negligible in all honesty these twws don't live up to the hype in terms of sound quality as well when you stack them up against competitors like Samsung Birds Fe soundcore Liberty 4nc or nothing else they fall short in every aspect not just sound from my side Golden Ages do not get recommendation I'm not going to rate them since I'm not sure about the L deck issue yet so I might rate them in future well this was quite a negative experience I had with moondrop this time I hope they improve in future moondrop if you're listening to this work on your app or stop marketing twws and DSP products now that miad is out as well you need to work on it well this was it for Moon drop Golden Ages from my site stay tuned for upcoming videos I will see you on the next one [Music]
