The BL01's are definitely excellent. I've been ABC'ing them with the YBF and the Black Bat and it's hard to say which I prefer. The 01's actually graph a lot like the YBF's and the difference's I am seeing on the graphs appears to match what I'm hearing as well. The 01 have a bit more bass weight and the vocals are a little softer. I think I prefer the vocal tonality on the 01's but the extended treble on the YBF's gives them a sense of air and space that I have not been able to find on another IEM yet.
I have been pleasantly surprised with the Smabat Black Bat as well. Monstrous sub-bass that is kept under control (with the right tips) and great vocals. They are a particularly good set for hip hop, but they sound good with everything really.
Green: 01 / Red: YBF
Now you made me buy the Black Bat, hopefully I like them better than the NCO which I think is a bit meh in most aspects.
Two days ago after I bought the FiiO FD5 I thought it was my last purchase of the year and this is now the fourth one I buy after that... OpenHeart Resin, NS Audio NS5 MKII Bass, Tripowin TC-01 and now the Black Bat...
Tomorrow I should receive Focus Rythm and Focus EDM to compliment my recently acquired Focus Vocal.
NM2+ purchased on 11/11 still MIA so far.
