100+ Head-Fier
Cant believe the only iems I've bought since the kb100s are the mh755s, with the modding stuff. Waiting for my metal shell to come along, for a second pair.
Of course nothing still beats the kb100 in my inventory, with an occasional preference to the tin t2.
Kb100 train is still going choo choo here.

KB100 still holds its own and serves a better experience than BLON to me. BLON's timbre is marginally better than KB100 but loses to KB100 in every other department for me. I like both of them for what they are. BLON's are perfect for casual listening and for acoustic/classical genres where timbre plays a crucial role. Hindustani classical/fusion sounds very rich on BLON but details+soundstage+separation+imaging is way below KB100. In bass, both deep dig for me thus I have no complaints. Highs and mids is where KB100 completely trounces BLONs which is somewhat expected as one is a hybrid whereas other is a CNT DD. It's unfair to compare them but as a consumer who's tight on budget and is confused on what to purchase should go for what works best for him. Because someone who's eyeing KB100 will surely think about Chi-fi's recent superstar BLON BL03 which is costs almost half of KB100. I love DD sound hence I bought BL03. I love both and use them almost daily at my desk in office.
P.S. These are my impressions on how I perceive them.
