BLON BL-MAX

The best sound stage

I’m not an expert, few time in this world, I was using all my life bluetooth over ear… did buy some IEMs and I will never go back, really this is the best to enjoy music, with this XL I was happy, not a lot of bass as I like but it is true, the difference with this is a beautiful sound stage well defined. Probably it’s true that Blon don’t have the best ear tips, when I tried memory foam and very open in the hole, all did change to better, the bass and audio in general was more bright and vivid, I don’t mind to sacrifice details if I get bass… one of my favourites. Not for everybody. Instruments and concerts off all kind are the best gender for this magnificence specially for the price

Mixed feelings

They're heavy (as in physical weight) and have a strange squared off extruded lip on the side that touches your ear - as a result I cannot get them to fit comfortably for anything more than a few minutes without this extrusion becoming realliy painful. Just to clarify, I don't have this with any other IEM so I don't think it's the shape of my ears but everyone is different. They sound OK though, I purchased them specifically to try with the new Fiio UTWS5 as the Bluttooth rolls off the bass ever so slightly, I was hoping these would compensate for that and they do, the bass is full and fairly clear with foam tips - it's a $38 dual DD, good for the price, but don't expect miracles. There's a clarity in the top end that isn't miraculous, but you can hear things with them in that region that you don't hear with the HBB Mele for example, but we're not talking full extnesion to the airy shimmery part of the spectrum Should you get these? If you're prepared to gamble a little with the weight and fit, then they might be worrth a go for you if you like electronic music.

Massive detailed bass and sub-bass

V-shaped sound signature where the bass side is higher than the treble side, Lots of details in the bass and sub bass. Large well made shells with shallow insertion for medium to large ears. May need to use foam tips for seal, the seal greatly affects the bass performance. The cable is serviceable but does seem fragile with the thin wires after the Y split to the earbuds, no microphonics. A set for bass heads.
