Optimized for Hi-Fi Audio

The Crescent optimizes driver quality and efficiency to capitalize on the most cohesive and dynamic sound. Two dynamic drivers and two balanced armature drivers, all independent and non-redundant, ensures a completely unique texture and character to the sound. Rediscover true High Fidelity audio in the paradoxical simplicity and complexity of the Crescent. 

Crisp, Snappy, and Analog

The Crescent is simply a joy to listen to. Offering a unique musical experience, the sound of the Crescent can be described as feeling analog, with a hint of retro twang, similar to the character of vintage tube amps. The overall sound feels snappy and crisp, with fast transients that keeps the music feeling fresh while nostalgic. 

Four Independent Drivers

The Crescent features two separate dynamic drivers arranged in an isobaric configuration. A 10mm PET diaphragm driver was chosen to provide a thumpy kick bass rumble. A separate 10mm LCP diaphragm provides the transient speeds to keep the bass and low-mids feeling tight. Each driver is independently tuned, yet combining their acoustics in an isobaric configuration completely alters the textural output, allowing the unique vintage sound to the Crescent.

A custom ported Knowles 30262-163 midrange driver is carefully tuned to deliver  smooth yet firm mids. The midrange has a buttery texture that is airy while still encapsulating the accuracy of balanced armature drivers. The trebles are powered by the Knowles 33518 tweeters to bring out the micro details in the music. 

Tonal Balance

The secret to making the unique texture of the Crescent feel crisp is the tuning. The Crescent has been painstakingly tuned to fit ZiiGaat’s in-house tonal curvature. Featuring a robust 10dB sub-bass shelf that exactly cuts off at 250Hz, the bass is thumpy, focused, and pristine.

The midrange are free-from any bloating, allowing vocals and instruments to sound accurate, showcase their inherent warmth, and texture. The trebles have excellent bite and sizzle without any harshness thanks to a natural decay curvature. Micro peaks throughout the decay brings out every minute detail that keeps the sound feeling clear and full of air without being unnatural. 

Handcrafted Quality

Each Crescent unit is handcrafted. Beginning with a 3D-printed resin shell which uses imported medical-grade resin, the shell is durable and lightweight for extended studio usage. Each driver is hand-tested and paired prior to assembly to ensure perfect channel matching. Crescent units are then individually tested prior to finishing and polishing to ensure the highest degree of quality. Every faceplate is hand poured and decorated, providing a boutique look and feel. 

Custom Interchangeable Cable

The Crescent comes standard with an interchangeable 2-pin 0.78mm connector cable. The cable is constructed from ultra-pure grade silver-plated oxygen-free copper. Premium silver-plated copper wires ensure noise-free signal transmission for the highest quality of sound. The interchangeable cable design also optimizes  the longevity of the IEM and allows customizability in your wearing experience.
