Key features mentioned
Packaging / presentation
- The box is described as solid and nice to display, tempting the reviewer to buy.
- Includes postcards (the reviewer received 3) for display.
- Includes a pin (the reviewer notes they got Hoshimi, with a possible Viv/Hoshimi variation for exchanges).
Design & build
- Shell color described as “masculine pink.”
- Looks like a resin-molded shell with artwork:
- One side: “My Viv”
- Other side: “My Hoshimi”
- Not metal; described as solid, but plastic/resin-like.
- Cable uses a two-pin connector for replacement.
Accessories
- Comes with standard ear tips (3 pairs).
- Pouch is “okay,” but the reviewer dislikes storing items in it (“rotten pouch” phrasing).
- Included cable is not bad, but the reviewer wants a cable that matches the IEM theme color.
Optional/bonus accessory: “Flower’s Poem” case
- Described as quite large: approx. 10.5 cm diameter and 5 cm high.
- Includes acrylic + a pin (bonus).
- Packaging marketing is joked about as “multi-use” (the reviewer references “kissing/licking/cuddling all night”).
- Reviewer notes the case smells (odor/scenting mentioned).
- Practical caveat: the shell shape can feel bulky on the reviewer’s ears, even if it feels/looks “manlier.”
User experience (fit, comfort, isolation, usage)
Comfort
- Comfortable for sitting while listening.
- During jogging, discomfort begins after about 45 minutes.
- After ~1–2 hours, the IEM can start to feel heavy on the ears.
Isolation
- Passive isolation depends on ear tips/ear tape, plus cables.
- The reviewer mentions needing volume around 45 to compete with background noise.
- They suggest isolation could “reach 7 or 8” with better tip/cable choices (not fully clear if this is a score or relative improvement).
Sound signature (detailed impressions)
Bass
- Not known for extraordinary/booming bass; bass is more controlled.
- Compared to the reviewer’s collection:
- Similar to KZ D1
- Better than CNGJ
- Has bass sharpness, but no deep physical sub-bass impact.
- Bass clarity is described as clearer than some, but not the best overall.
- Advice given: don’t expect booming bass.
Midrange
- Warm midrange with textured instruments.
- Feels more neutral than KZ D1 in the midrange area (reviewer can’t clearly tell the difference, but leans slightly more neutral).
- Vocals: clearer than before (the reviewer attributes some of this to enjoyment/bias).
Treble / upper range
- Upper range is detailed with audible micro-details.
- Male vocals may sound piercing.
Technicalities
- Separation: described as easy.
- Imaging: mostly fair.
- Technical performance is described as not clearly better than some other models, including:
- Not better than Moondrop Daybreak
- Compared vs Moondrop Race and others
- Overall framing: results may be compatibility-dependent, not universally “better.”
- Technical assessment described as tier/general, not perfect across every micro-metric.
Comparisons made (explicit models)
- KZ D1: similar comparison for bass/mids; reviewer feels Leteciel is more neutral in mids.
- Moondrop Race: reviewer says bass/cl extra is not better than Race.
- Moondrop Daybreak: reviewer says imaging/technicalities are not better than Daybreak.
- CNGJ: reviewer notes Leteciel bass is better than this one (based on their references).
- KZ D7 mentioned indirectly (reviewer’s recollection suggests Leteciel’s performance doesn’t surpass top contenders).
Pros
- Visually appealing; strong packaging/presentation value.
- Fun extras: postcards and a pin (collectible/art theme).
- Solid build feel (shell described as resin-like/plastic; cable “not bad”).
- Detailed upper range with micro-details.
- Separation described as easy; imaging is fair.
- Comfort is good for seated listening.
Cons
- Bass isn’t powerful/boomy; sub-bass impact is limited.
- Can be piercing in treble/male vocals.
- Bulky fit for the reviewer; heavier after ~1–2 hours.
- Isolation can be limited and depends heavily on ear tips/cable/ear tape.
- Case/shell accessories may be large/bulky (case size noted).
- Reviewer wants a cable swap for better color matching (though the included cable is acceptable).
Ratings / numerical scores mentioned
- Target price: Rp. 770,000
- Tier/score references:
- Reviewer says it lands close to Tier A.
- They reference an “high B” score of 6.2 (exact product score is not clearly stated).
- Mention of adjusting/rebalancing scores in future.
Overall verdict / recommendation (from the video)
Recommended for listeners who want a detailed, generally warm/neutral-leaning sound with good upper-range detail and easy separation—but not for bass-heads (especially those expecting strong sub-bass impact). Comfort is fine for seated use, but may become uncomfortable during longer sessions or active movement like jogging.
