Moondrop Rays — Hybrid Gaming IEM with USB-C DSP

The Moondrop Rays is a wired in-ear monitor built for gaming, part of the MOONDROP Gravity Pro Gaming series. It combines Moondrop's Hi-Fi acoustic tuning with a Hi-Fi class game sound card on a USB-C cable, so it connects directly to a computer or phone with a USB-C port, while the included USB-C to USB-A extension cable covers computers with USB-A ports. The result is a single IEM for competitive play, voice chat and music.

What Sets the Rays Apart

The driver configuration pairs a 10 mm sapphire-plated diaphragm dynamic driver with a 6 mm annular planar magnetic driver. Moondrop tuned it for both Hi-Fi listening and gaming, aligned with its VDSF target response and with ultra-low nonlinear distortion across the full signal chain, aiming for clearer imaging, more accurate positioning and a richer spatial presentation. The cavity is ergonomically designed and 3D-printed from medical-grade material.

Tuning Software and Microphone

Sound is shaped with visual multi-point parametric tuning in the MOONDROP Link app or in the MOONDROP online equalizer. One-click EQ and one-button switching between profiles make quick changes easy, and a built-in community lets users share and download tunes, including tunes fine-tuned with e-sports players. The built-in DSP stores the tuning in memory. For communication, the microphone uses hardware-level AI noise cancellation with an embedded NPU.

Who the Moondrop Rays Is For

The Rays is the right choice for gamers who want accurate sound positioning and clear voice chat from a compact in-ear monitor instead of a bulky headset. The DSP tuning with game-oriented presets makes it easy to switch between titles, while the Hi-Fi tuning and hybrid dynamic plus planar driver setup make it equally suitable for music between sessions.
