A Tribute to the Golden Era of Portable Audio

Since the Walkman era, open-back on-ear headphones have become cultural icons—symbols of portability, personality, and pure musical enjoyment. Decades later, the design still holds a special place among audio enthusiasts. Following the success of the DiscDream series, MOONDROP set out to create a retro-inspired on-ear headphone that revives this classic form while achieving true modern acoustic fidelity.

40mm Dynamic Driver with High-Damping Composite Diaphragm

Old Fashioned features an oversized 40mm dynamic driver—rare in compact open-back on-ear designs—achieved through precise structural stacking. By optimizing diaphragm damping and tuning the driver’s resonant frequency (f₀), these headphones deliver deeper, fuller bass than typically possible in mini open-back formats. The result is a warm, fatigue-free tonality that preserves nostalgic charm without sacrificing fidelity.

Ergonomic Fit with Adaptive Comfort

Equipped with a telescopic headband and multi-axis swivel hinges, Old Fashioned remains faithful to traditional on-ear ergonomics while improving stability and tactile refinement. Enhanced damping components provide smoother swivel motion and more premium extension feedback, elevating comfort and build quality far beyond vintage models.

0.78mm 2-Pin Interchangeable Cable

To expand versatility, Old Fashioned adopts a 0.78mm 2-pin detachable cable design with a reinforced grooved connector structure for improved durability. Users can upgrade or swap cables easily for different setups and scenarios.

Modular Detachable Design for Customization

The earcups and headband utilize a modular, fully detachable system. Swivel-ball joints allow the earcups to be removed and replaced with optional accessories such as ear hooks or neckbands, enabling diverse wearing styles tailored to personal preference.

Superior Open-Back Frequency Response

The innovative open-back structure, combined with the oversized dynamic driver, achieves excellent frequency response performance. Even through a standard 3.5mm single-ended output, the Old Fashioned attains DF-HRTF-aligned frequency characteristics, ensuring a natural, open, and highly detailed listening experience.
