Flagship Successor to the Illumination Series
As the worthy successor to the Illumination series, the Moondrop ILLUSTRIOUS refines and enhances its predecessor’s core strengths. It delivers pristine bass, a smooth treble extension, and an exceptionally natural sound signature. This new design has been engineered to meet the rigorous standards of both professionals and audiophiles, ensuring an audio experience that is both accurate and immersive.
Upgraded 11mm Patented Dynamic Driver
Building on the legendary 11mm dynamic driver of the Illumination, the ILLUSTRIOUS features advanced diaphragm materials, a refined magnetic circuit, and a re-engineered acoustic front cavity. These improvements result in a wider frequency response with extended treble smoothness, reduced nonlinear distortion for a more natural sound, and enhanced magnetic circuit efficiency for increased driver precision. These upgrades elevate the performance of the ILLUSTRIOUS, providing a clearer, more balanced listening experience.
TAC Diamond-Coated Dome Composite Diaphragm
The ILLUSTRIOUS adopts a cutting-edge TAC diamond-coated dome diaphragm, improving on the traditional LCP dome technology. The artificial diamond layer, with an SP3 bond stronger than DLC, enhances the rigidity and internal damping of the diaphragm, resulting in smoother treble extension with finer details. This diaphragm, coupled with a high-damping polyurethane suspension, minimizes distortion at high amplitudes, while the combination of three high-performance materials provides superior dynamic response and exceptional audio quality.
Precision-Engineered Front Cavity Acoustic Structure
Designed for professional accuracy, the ILLUSTRIOUS features a restructured front cavity that eliminates standing waves and reduces high-frequency diffraction. This redesign ensures a refined tonal balance with richer details, as well as more accurate treble reproduction. Such precision makes the ILLUSTRIOUS ideal for critical listening, where every detail is captured with clarity and accuracy.
Reference-Standard Tuning with Ultra-Low Distortion
Meticulously tuned to align with the Diffuse-Field HRTF (Head-Related Transfer Function) standard, the ILLUSTRIOUS delivers a strictly neutral frequency response. With total harmonic distortion (THD) below 0.03%, the ILLUSTRIOUS provides near-zero bass coloration for true-to-source accuracy. This results in pure, natural sound reproduction with high-resolution playback fidelity. The reduced odd harmonic distortion, below 0.01%, ensures a clean and transparent listening experience, bringing out the finest details in your music.
Premium CNC-Machined Titanium Alloy Housing
Crafted with high-precision CNC-milled titanium alloy, the ILLUSTRIOUS features a brass gold-plated acoustic structure that enhances resonance control and structural durability. This premium build ensures not only a sophisticated aesthetic but also improved sound quality and durability. The combination of these materials and the careful engineering results in a more stable and refined listening experience.
Interchangeable Cable with Universal 0.78mm Connectors
Designed for flexibility and convenience, the ILLUSTRIOUS includes a universal 0.78mm 2-pin connector, allowing for easy replacement and compatibility with different cable types. The included replaceable plugs—3.5mm single-ended and 4.4mm balanced—ensure seamless integration with a variety of audio equipment, providing users with options for optimal performance and customization based on their needs.
