The MOONDROP COSMO is a premium set of open-back planar magnetic headphones which uses in-house developed drivers that can compete with flagships costing significantly more. It has issues with comfort and stock tuning, but benefits heavily from aftermarket pads and EQ.

I'll get a little off topic, but the top headband design should be illegal. I've had two different brands and I'm never ever going for something like that. The sound could be the best, but it doesn't matter at all if you're constantly fighting the headset to not fall off from your head. The headband widens pretty fast and the entire headset becomes an absolute torture to use.

And Venus is in and of itself already obsolete because PARA exists and is essentially the same (if not better sounding) headphone for less money. Moondrops whole current product stack is bizzare.
