Introduction

Moondrop has been gaining quite a bit of traction lately, their (now discontinued) Crescent and Kanas Pro dynamics taking the audio world seemingly out of nowhere. It’s not my first rodeo with them either; in fact you could argue that I was one of the first few to bring them into the spotlight almost a year back.

Yep, you heard it right. The ultra-popular Kanas Pro has already been discontinued, just as it was chugging along full steam ahead. Tagging in to replace it is the KXXS, a more-similar-than-different model with much more striking faceted lines and a packaging that appeals to the more… Japanese-inclined.

Due to this new fact, I’ll more than likely simply combine my review of the Kanas Pro with the KXXS considering that you probably can’t get the former in the future. So now the big question remains: how will the new update fare in the gladitorial ranking pits?
