Moondrop Ultrasonic Hybrid Drivers TWS Earphone - LDAC Hi-Res

Our review of the Moondrop Ultrasonic finds these TWS earphones aimed at listeners who prioritize high-resolution audio and a natural soundstage. The standout reason to consider them is the hybrid driver arrangement: a 13mm sapphire-coated dynamic driver paired with a direct-radiation FRA balanced armature tweeter, which together deliver extended highs, solid mids and controlled bass while supporting LDAC 24bit/96kHz transmission for lossless wireless playback.

Key Features

• Hybrid driver design: The 13mm sapphire diaphragm dynamic driver handles bass and mids while the FRA direct-radiation balanced armature delivers clearer, wider high frequencies for better detail.
• LDAC support: High-definition lossless audio transmission up to 24bit/96kHz lets compatible players and phones stream more detail and dynamic range over Bluetooth.
• Two-way crossover and equidistant acoustic layout: The crossover and equidistant transmission path preserve phase alignment and a realistic soundstage across frequency bands.
• Depth wide-band ANC: A single feedforward active noise cancellation implementation reduces environmental noise while aiming to keep sound quality intact when ANC is enabled.
• Low-latency game mode: A dedicated game mode reduces delay to about 55ms for better audio-visual sync during gaming sessions.
• Premium diaphragm materials: The lithium-magnesium alloy and sapphire-coated dome diaphragms are tuned for clarity and extended ultra-high response.

Who It's For

These earphones suit audiophiles and commuters who want lossless-capable Bluetooth and a refined timbral balance without wired constraints. The LDAC support and hybrid drivers are especially useful for users who stream high-resolution files from compatible sources and appreciate detailed highs and a coherent midrange.

Casual listeners who only use standard AAC/SBC streaming and prioritize a simple, inexpensive pair may find the Ultrasonic overkill; likewise, those who rely on app-driven customization or prefer feedback ANC designs for maximum environmental cancellation may want to compare other models.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Exceptional high-frequency extension from the FRA direct-radiation tweeter for improved clarity and air.
• Rich, controlled bass and midrange from the 13mm sapphire-coated dynamic driver that supports a wide soundstage.
• Lossless-capable LDAC support preserves detail when used with compatible devices.
• Useful low-latency game mode that reduces lag to about 55ms for gaming.

Cons

• ANC uses a single feedforward approach which preserves fidelity but may not match the raw cancellation depth of some feedback hybrid systems.
• Some users report mixed impressions of app functionality and design, so customization options may be limited compared with rival ecosystems.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does it support lossless Bluetooth audio?
Yes, the Ultrasonic supports LDAC allowing up to 24bit/96kHz transmission on compatible devices.

How effective is the noise cancellation?
Noise cancellation uses a single feedforward design that preserves sound quality well, though it may not deliver the deepest passive-like cancellation of some feedback or hybrid ANC systems.

Is there a low-latency mode for gaming?
Yes, a game mode can be enabled that reduces latency to about 55ms for improved sync in games.
