MOONDROP Quark 2 HiFi USB C In-Ear Earphone 32Bit/384kHz Hardware Decoding Heaphones
Audio/IEMs
“Moondrop Quark 2 pairs a specially developed 7.8mm LCP-diaphragm dynamic driver with an onboard DSP SoC that supports PCM 32‑Bit/384kHz decoding and a Type‑C terminated cable. The Quark 2 delivers closed‑front cavity isolation and robust bass for a compact wired IEM, but tradeoffs include limited DSP/ app control and modest microphone and cable durability.”
