Headphone Zone has teamed up with ddHiFi to launch two new budget in-ear monitors in India. The Iris is priced at Rs. 2,999, while the Skyfall costs Rs. 3,999. Both models have been built for audiophiles and are available through Headphone Zone’s website.

The two IEMs were developed with Demond Ding, founder of ddHiFi. Headphone Zone says the project started with a simple question. Did India really need another budget IEM, or could the segment get something more interesting at an entry-level price?

Iris and Skyfall are built around a fully solid 3D-printed medical-grade resin shell. This type of construction is usually found on more expensive IEMs, including the Moondrop Blessing 3 and DITA Audio Project M. Headphone Zone is also using hand-painted marbled faceplates sealed under clear resin. Iris comes in marbled green, while Skyfall gets a marbled blue finish. Since the patterns are made by hand, each pair will look slightly different.

The Iris is the simpler of the two. It uses a single 10mm dynamic driver with a beryllium-plated diaphragm. Its tuning focuses on vocals and instruments, instead of the usual bass-heavy sound many budget IEMs chase. Headphone Zone says the Iris is better suited for rock, acoustic, pop, R&B, and jazz. It ships with a 3.5mm silver-plated OFC cable and uses a 0.78mm 2-pin connector. The company also says it pairs naturally with the Headphone Zone X ddHiFi Hi-Res DAC.

Skyfall sits slightly higher in the lineup and costs Rs. 3,999. It uses a hybrid setup with one 10mm nano-titanium dynamic driver and one custom balanced armature. A two-way crossover handles the pairing through electronic RC components and acoustic design. The sound is tuned to be warm, full-bodied, and smoother at the top end, making it better suited for longer listening sessions. Headphone Zone lists cinematic music, soundtracks, hip-hop, and electronic music as its ideal use cases.

Skyfall also gets a 4.4mm balanced high-purity silver-plated OFC cable with an aluminium shell. It is designed to pair with the Headphone Zone X ddHiFi Hi-Res DAC Pro.
