Revainrating 5 out of 5

Totally unfair considering how big they really are.

(edited, descriptions in parentheses and created on 03/08/2021) I have friends in the audio world and when a friend suggested this one. I wrote them off and said I didn't have the money for them. (Roughly less than $17-$18 each with coupon at the time of this writing) Well. My bluff was called, so to speak. and he was given enough to get both white and black, so more or less tutored. So I did. I have thousands of dollars worth of sound equipment. THX 887, Erish, Archel2 Pro, STAX Lambda Spirit Pro, SMSL M300 mk2, Quedelix 5K. Look, the list really goes on and on. etc. The thing is. they were 100% right. Are they flagship killers? No no no no. Are they some of the best v-ish signed DD singles out there? Spring. Remove the pre-curved ear hooks and damn right! . (Sorry, that'll be the subject of this expenses article.) The few tracks that honestly surprised me the most were Starlings and Yossi Horikawa's Letter. With the starlings, the little marble droplets were just stunning, how well everything was placed, how clear it was placed and how far things sounded. With Letter, the sounds of page turning and left-to-right pencil tracing were faint, to say the least. There was no gap, not an easily discernible gap as he walked from left to right. Pretty difficult thing. It seemed to me that maybe he had thrown too far, but that would have been a little divisive in my eyes. again. yes considering the cost. (edited similarly to above, with the above examples, plus additional CoD) Impressively good scene. there is no spectacularly gorgeous scene, not even one that stands out. Considering (no not s.ok yes cost) there is no open back cheating here. That was the most amazing thing. In the example above, I mentioned how far he can throw something, and boy. That being said, playing CoD was almost unfair to the other team. If it weren't for the fact that I'm bad at games and can't aim my life half the time. I usually knew how far away they were from me and generally whether they were taller or shorter than me. Though the extra dash of throw made it a bit difficult at times (edited to add some self-deprecating sarcasm). honest. So I call it good enough! (We can't all be good at the audio stuff, right?) The split is actually pretty big for them, again considering their cost. To be honest I wasn't expecting this at all, so I think this demonstrates the relatively nimble DD they chose. thick and meaty, it never feels deficient and with a RESERVE! TIPS! it doesn't bleed through much in the middle at all unless the music mix is weird. These aren't levels of MH755's heady hedonism, but I swear it's impressively reminiscent of him. But don't be too flowery, dirty or even lethargic. Pretty nimble for about $20. While it's not the most detailed bass, it's definitely WAY better than I thought it would be. It's more than tech enough and fast enough that if you're looking for a "high quality beater" or are on a budget and want the best (v Signature Bass) you can get the lowest bucks possible. Because nothing makes a workout more pumped than total hits! I say "biteyka" with the utmost love I am capable of. It's far, far, far from the racquet on the outside, literally feels like something cheap and probably not something you want to step on. The mids aren't quite that hidden to be honest, I think the charts hardly call it AV sound (just) ie due to a reasonable drop. They're not falling too far behind and don't feel like they're misplacing things due to a signature recession. Metal vocals sound fantastic, I love the Melo Death genre, some electronics, acoustics, ambient/chill/downtempo etc. Even the female vocals, which lean more into the mids than the highs, are beautifully articulated and softly textured. I mean, don't expect miracles here, but don't think they're that easy either. Temper your expectations, they're around $20! The technical search in the middle isn't that bad, but I suppose that's one of its modest flaws. Although I think it actually helps make it less annoying in that regard. The high-frequency range is surprisingly well developed, to be honest, about the same as the low-frequency range. Which was a surprise considering the low price. Finding technical details is more than I expected from a deal. With standard tips that you should never, NEVER deviate from. Along with the standard cable (personal experience, don't mention it if you're not a cable roller) they weren't overly aggressive or overly sharp. A bit dark (generally) but really not shimmery like the MH755. I found my DUNU Spocc cable to return the high frequencies I honestly expected. (Cut this again and please ignore if you're not the type to cut cords.) The upper range of the male vocals felt well fleshed out and pushed forward a bit, if not just beyond stand-up, not exactly outstanding. The same goes for the upper range of female vocals. increased overall level in the previous relationship. Guitars of all types have been found to have these small details that you don't typically get from larger or darker kits. The weird ambient music (etc) I listen to also benefited from the expansion. Extracting those little bits that are usually lost in a slower converter. Or it gets lost when there's too much bass or the mids are bloated disproportionately. Although I suppose they can get tiresome when cranked up in volume and left there in almost any genre to be honest. The fit is perfectly acceptable, although my friend, actually two others, and I noticed our blacks had a wobbly nozzle. Some cyanoacrylate (superglue) and it sticks without any problems. I suggest using a toothpick to apply a limited amount if you have a similar problem. Although I had a fit issue that is easily fixed. The ear hooks had to be removed. They kept putting things off for me, and that bothered me a little. So I took a razor and carefully cut off the sleeves of the hooks, then took my cuticle nipper and made the first cut (careful!). I then gently tugged on the cable to separate it along the groove I had made and then finally cut a piece that was fused into the 2 pin connectors. Since then there have been no more fit issues. Speaking of cables, it's the same as most KZ cables but has since been updated. It doesn't sound like a full Garbo and doesn't sound too bad, it has little or no microphonics. The microphone is not that bad (one button interface) and it uses a regular KZ. e. 2 pin Kbear box style interface. Not as good as a recessed one, but not as uncomfortable as a B-pin configuration with an overblown socket body. This way my 2-pin recessed compatible cables don't have connection problems and don't damage connector housings. The cord isn't super straight, but a bit of heat from the Texas sun or not your own hair dryer is good enough. do you think i sold it? Then just try the set. you can always send it back, right? If you like the AV signature but don't want extremes, this is your pick. I'm glad I bought a pair because if one gives up I have the other ready to please me. I don't expect them to take a beating, they're not super well built. They seem cheap but they don't seem any cheaper than what you paid for to be honest. I mean, kinda not me. In other words, if you've been considering the Blon bl-03 but worried about the lack of treble? Then take her instead.
