I just received my FiiO AM3D THX AAA amplifier module for my FiiO X7mkII today, it has great bass extension, soundstage, instrument separation and treble detail (I'm pretty hyped about it). Out of the earphones I own, the **** does it the most justice by far. A friend of mine just recently ordered his **** and is super happy with them. So there could be bad versions out there, or it's just people perceiving audio differently. My back up pair sounds exactly the same as the one I've been constantly using.
IMHO the **** for the cheap price is a great pair of IEMs. The soundstage/details/instrument separation are quite good. I think a lot of people who complain about it are comparing it to higher priced IEMs and also they are not using an amp with it. The **** piezo drivers which take care of the treble range require quite a lot of power for it to truly shine. So just plugging the **** into a smartphone ain't doing it justice.
My only small gripe about it is that instruments like wind and string instruments don't sound tonally correct but if you are not using it for orchestral/classical style genres, it may not be so evident. YMMV.
For getting this price, buy it chosing "other methods" as payment, DONT PAY, send a message to the seller, he will reduce the price... then pay for it.
Reviews out of Japan have the Blon as a fairly neutral balanced iem with a slight emphasis on being bright/treble. but have not seen any graphs yet. Also saying that the Blon was tuned by TFZ. Anyone know more about that?

This is my first post on here in months. Fell away from the hobby for a few months but got suckered in by the BLON and the Semkarch CNT 1. A carbon nanotube double!
Anyway they've both ignited the touchpaper again for me.
Don't want to say much until I've had then a bit longer but agree with neutral to bright description for the BLON.
This is after changing the tips to wide bore foams as it was nigh on impossible for me to get a seal with the stock tips due to the design.
Just got the Semkarch today and REALLY like them on m first listen too.
So I compare **** V2 which is neutral with slight boost in mid bass
The render is more natural, voice are natural too with Good place in scene, they are brighter too. More colored than V2 but better separation and better stereo.
I prefer the BLON but they are less neutral than v2 but I prefer them. It's clearly a good first Iem ! Just not compatible with trn bt20 due to design. The BT3 it's ok. And the stock tips are useless

Even though I need it like a hole in the head, I wish I had ordered the Blon when it was that fukubukuro intro price during the Aliexpress spring sale.
It looks really nice, and I actually like the EP10, so I’m sure I’d like the Blon based on the sound description.

Also, we love it when people switch from ‘lurk’ mode to ‘participation’ mode. I lurked for years myself, before I was comfortable enough to start posting
That goes for all you other lurkers out there reading this! Your opinion and full participation is welcome with open arms, no matter what your audio experience level, your mastery of the English language (or not), etc.
We all have a common love here - the enjoyment of music on audio gear. And the community is richer the more people participate.

Update: Good lord, the prices of those 2 new NEX models sure jumped up. $65 and $135?? That’s quite a far cry from all of their previous models.
Either Revonext were breaking even on the previous models (which were a tremendous value for the cost, especially for the copper steampunk-looking one), or they’re raking us over the coals on these new models.
Either way, I’m at least glad we can openly talk about the 2 new NEX models on HeadFi (vs all of the old models which are banned for discussion).
