The Moondrop SSR “Super Spaceship Reference” is a $40 single-dynamic-driver earphone from this upsurging Sichuan company. It was officially released on 15th June 2020. Here some uncommented technical photos and measurements. Review will be coming soon. I am sprinkling in some tidbits on the sound as we go along. Check back from time to time…
Moondrop single DDs clockwise: SSR, Spaceship, Crescent, Starfield.

Head-Fier since 2016. He has been known as “Otto Motor” to Head-Fiers, as “Dr. Schweinsgruber” to audiobudget.com users and Youtubers, and as “Brause” to Super Best Audio Friends and the Headphone Community. - For the purpose of confusion, he decided to pose under his real name Jürgen Kraus (“JK”) from now on. - This is a hobby. In “real” life, Jürgen is a professional geologist operating his own petroleum-exploration consulting company Franconia Geoscience Ltd. based in Calgary, Canada. He holds German and Canadian passports. Jürgen had a classical music education from childhood through high school in Germany and he has been following popular music developments since the late 1970s.
