What reviewers said

Moondrop Old Fashioned

The Moondrop Old Fashioned is a budget-friendly, semi-open on-ear headphone with a triple 40mm dynamic driver setup that delivers clear, well-tuned sound with a focus on vocals. It's easy to drive and comfortable for casual listening, though its open design means noticeable sound leakage and a significant roll-off in sub-bass frequencies. Overall, it offers strong value for its price, especially for those who prioritize midrange clarity over deep bass.

  • Pro:Excellent tuning and vocal clarity for the price
  • Pro:Comfortable fit for extended listening sessions
  • Pro:Easy to drive with any device thanks to high sensitivity
  • Con:Very limited sub-bass response with roll-off below 100 Hz
  • Con:Semi-open design leads to sound leakage and poor isolation
  • Con:Modest technical performance compared to pricier models

OneOdio Focus A1 Pro

  • Pro:Very long battery life, especially with ANC off
  • Pro:Effective hybrid noise cancellation for the price
  • Pro:Bluetooth 6.0 with multipoint support
  • Con:Only SBC and AAC codecs, no aptX or LDAC
  • Con:No water resistance rating
