ZiiGaat Crescent In-Ear Monitors Review
A four-driver hybrid IEM from ZiiGaat; the page lists two dynamic drivers (10mm PET and 10mm LCP diaphragms) and two balanced armature drivers, a 3D-printed resin shell and a 2-pin 0.78mm cable, at $237.15. Impedance is not given in the listing text.

Our verdict
Suits someone who wants a two-dynamic, two-armature set with an interchangeable 2-pin 0.78mm cable at $237.15 and accepts the maker's description of its character. Look elsewhere if you need a plug type, cable length, impedance or sensitivity before buying, since the listing text gives none. The main caveat is that the analog, vintage-style sound story is the maker's own wording and was not checked here.
- Best for
- Someone who wants a four-driver IEM with two dynamic and two balanced armature drivers and an interchangeable 2-pin cable.
- Skip if
- You need a plug type, cable length or impedance figures from the listing text before buying.
According to the page, each Crescent from ZiiGaat holds four drivers: two dynamic drivers in an isobaric pair, one with a 10mm PET diaphragm and one with a 10mm LCP diaphragm, plus two balanced armature drivers, which the page names as Knowles parts. The shell is a 3D-printed resin build, and the cable is an interchangeable 2-pin 0.78mm design. It is listed at $237.15 as a single option, and the listing text gives no impedance or sensitivity.
Options and pricing
There is one orderable option at $237.15, and a crossed-out $279 appears on the page, the store's own comparison that we did not check. The listing text gives an interchangeable 2-pin 0.78mm cable but no plug type, cable length or color choice, so the options data holds nothing to select between.
How it compares
The ZiiGaat x Fresh Reviews Arete II costs the same $237.15, while the ZiiGaat Cincotres is $228.65 and its spec line mentions 2DD. The Leisurely Audio L6 is $244.99 and mentions 6BA. The Crescent's own page lists two dynamic and two balanced armature drivers at $237.15.
Shipping
- Methods and costs. The store's shipping page offers Standard Shipping (4PX, Yanwen or Yun Express), free for most countries, and Express Shipping (DHL Express, FedEx or SF Express) at 15-50 USD depending on the country, free for orders over 270 USD in most countries (checked 2026-11-11).
- Delivery times. It says an in-stock order ships within 3 working days, Standard takes about 2 weeks after shipping out (up to 1-3 months for some countries, and the store makes no refund for that transit time) and Express takes about 3-7 days. Festive seasons and other circumstances can change the timing.
- Taxes and fees. The buyer pays any customs, import or processing fees. The page says Standard via YunExpress is tax-inclusive for some countries, that remote areas can carry extra Express charges, and that a parcel refused or left uncollected over taxes is deducted two-way freight and may be destroyed with no refund.
- Where it ships. The page says the store can generally ship to most countries by Express and many by Standard, and to confirm Standard with the team for your country. It cannot ship to PO boxes or APO/FPO addresses and can only use Express to Hawaii. It does not name the US, Canada, the UK, Australia or New Zealand, so confirm before you pay.
- Lost parcels. If a parcel has been in transit for at least 3 months, the page offers a one-time reshipment or a full refund for orders under $50 and a 50% refund for orders above $50.
Returns and warranty
- Returns. The return page allows returning any non-customized product that is still factory sealed within 30 days of receiving it, with the buyer paying the shipping. Email [email protected] within that period; the store asks for the return to be shipped within 5 working days of the RMA instructions and in most cases processes a refund within 5 business days of inspecting it (checked 2026-11-11).
- Opened items. A product opened within the first 7 days after delivery can be returned for the price minus a restocking fee of 35% of its retail value, including when it still works properly.
- Refund or credit. The buyer can choose a refund to the original payment method (PayPal or card) or store credit; with no answer within 48 hours of confirmation the default is store credit, which can also be prioritized during promotions, final-sale events and for items 40% or more off retail.
- Not returnable. Customized products, including faceplate designs, are non-refundable, and the page says the same applies to carry cases, cables, ear tips and other accessories, "due to hygiene purposes". If one item in a package is defective, incorrect or missing, the refund or replacement covers only that item.
- Warranty. The page gives a 1-year warranty on products, excluding carry cases, ear tips and other accessories, and 3 months on cables and adapters, from the date of purchase. It covers factory defects that affect proper function, not damage from human error, negligence, accidents, dismantling, water, abuse or modification (checked 2026-11-11).
- Not covered or limited. It does not apply to items bought elsewhere (AliExpress, Amazon, local dealers and the like), prize or giveaway items, normal wear or colour change, commercial use, or items that were stolen or went missing. Coverage is limited for products 40% or more off retail, for review units and for items repaired or modified by anyone Linsoul has not authorized.
- Claims. Email [email protected] with the order number, the issue and photos and videos of the fault. The store may ask for the unit back for a replacement. It covers shipping for some defects reported within 7 days of delivery if the fault can be shown on video or photo; after 7 days the buyer ships it back. For wrong or missing items an unboxing video of the whole sealed parcel is required.
Before you buy
Linsoul says it was founded in 2016 by the Crazy HiFi team to bring Chinese HiFi makers closer to listeners worldwide, and that it now sells other makers' products alongside four brands of its own, THIEAUDIO, Kiwi Ears, ZiiGaat and Tripowin (checked 2026-11-11).
This product is from one of those brands, so Linsoul is both the seller and the brand's owner: its descriptions of the product are the brand owner's own claims.

What we couldn’t verify
- The page's sound description (analog character, snappy and crisp sound, thumpy bass, airy midrange) is the maker's own wording and was not checked here.
- No impedance, sensitivity, frequency response, cable length, plug type or weight figure is given in the listing text.
- We have not read an independent review of this product or the store, and the store's own ratings were not verified. We read the store's catalog description only: a specification table or image shown just on the live page was not read.
- The shipping page names no US, Canada, UK, Australia or New Zealand times or fees: its figures are general and we could not confirm them for these countries.
- Linsoul owns this brand, so the store's descriptions of it are the owner's own claims, which we could not check independently.
