A Symphony of Tech, Craft, and Sound

The Moondrop Dark Saber Hybrid Reference IEM is not just any in-ear monitor—it's a symphony of modern technology, aesthetics, and unrivaled craftsmanship. Designed for those with a discerning ear, its hybrid driver setup and luxurious materials position it as a premium contender in the market.

The pinnacle of craftsmanship

Thanks to their state-of-the-art material, the Dark Saber sports faceplates that remind you of ultra-luxury sports watches. Crafted from hundreds of layers of high-strength carbon fiber, it's the epitome of strength meets softness. And here's the cool part: each faceplate has a unique texture, making each one a piece of art.

2 dynamic drivers + 8 balanced armatures (per side)

The Dark Saber's aim is delivering punchy dynamics and the purest of sounds. It achieves this with 2 dynamic drivers and 8 balanced armatures per side, perfectly tuned to cover the entire frequency spectrum. From the rumbling lows to the crispest highs, these drivers ensure you get to hear every nuance of your music.

When bass takes center stage

Bass enthusiasts are in for a treat. The new Horizontally Opposed Double Dynamic Driver Module gives the Dark Saber a leg up in bass performance. Think of it as two 10mm dynamic drivers working in tandem, courtesy of 3D-printed components. The result: bass that's tight, deep, and distortion-free.

Keeping it all in sync

For music to truly come alive, every frequency needs to play nice with each other. The Dark Saber ensures this with its full-frequency phase alignment, creating an authentic timbre, enhanced resolution, and a soundstage that's out of this world.

All about the connections

Here's something for the cable enthusiasts—the Dark Saber comes with a 0.78mm 2-pin interchangeable design. Whether you're looking to pair it with the MOONDROP LittleWhite Bluetooth Neckband cable or go wired with the FreeDSP complex function decoding cable, this IEM has you covered.
