What one Redditor said

Mas ele é muito bom. A minha primeira impressão foi meio "decepcionante" mas fui continuando ouvindo, voltei pro fone antigo e fui ouvir ele se novo e me surpreendi.

If you like the tuning of chu2, I suggest that you look at Inawaken Dawn Ms for upgrade without breakjng the bank

My chu 2 are about a year old now, no paint chipping off and they work like a charm but i take good care of my stuff so there‘s that…

Bro i have moondrop chu 2 dsp version and i use samsung a35 the voice is distorted while taking calls i can't hear the other person please help

r/inearfidelitypositive1

Really like the Chu 2 as my first IEM. Even though it amazes me, i usually listen to them at low volume since its so nauseating. but good for me, I find it still full a bit thats enough to be nice (ar

I bought chu 2 dsp a year ago, and just after like 1-2 week, the dsp chip inside the type-c port blew... I'm getting lower sound volume on my left iem than on right( across various devices)🫠

r/iemsneutral26

If you take good care of the Chu 2, it should last you a long time. I have several sets that I use regularly.

r/iemsneutral7

IEMs like the Chu 2 are particularly prone to clogging as the mesh filter is very fine.

r/inearfidelitynegative3

ngl the Chu 2 can feel harsh in that upper midrange. i had the same reaction to Harman-style tunings.

r/inearfidelitynegative2

I got the Chu 2 with some expectation that they would sound decent, only to find them pretty much unlistenable due to a harsh upper range.

r/iemsnegative7

Also for anyone reading, don’t buy a chu 2 if you live anywhere remotely humid.

r/iemsneutral1

It still oxidized but rather minimal. Unlike the picture above where the eartips also get the oxidation.. granted I did clean out the eartips and nozzle regularly tho.

r/iemsnegative1

I hate chu2 so much because of this only

r/iemsneutral1

Cooper oxidation. Use silica balls or bags to control moisture and always use a pouch to store the Moondrop chu 2(well known issue of this oxidation)

r/iemsnegative1

Copper oxidation caused by not properly alloyed copper used in chu 2 production

r/iemlndiapositive2

Boom 💥, your IEM will instantly sound louder, with punchier bass, richer vocals, and an overall cleaner, more immersive sound.
