Headphoneus Supremus
I dont think so. I ordered them from here like many other head-fiers: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/BOS...&terminal_id=82ae43bf53cf4c43af97812f8fccbb33
Ok, the build is not that bad overall but cable feels little flimsy. Midrange doesnt always appear harsh sounding, they work quite well for more laid-back stuff like acoustics but i cant listen metal or rock with sharp sounding guitars at higher volumes without feeling a bit uncomfortable. They just start to rip my ears. Switching to T2-eartips helped little bit.
Yes, the cable is flimsy. And the metal ‘strain reliefs’ don’t help. They look nice, but put even more strain on the already flimsy cable.
It would have been nice (and not terribly difficult) for the interface to be mmcx instead of fixed. Magaosi did it in a later revision with the BK50. For a $30 IEM, it would be a perfectly reasonable feature to expect from Blon/BossHiFi.
I agree they are not the best for heavy metal/rock. Like you said some guitars with those genres can be harsh. It feels like someone is grating on my eardrums with a cheese grater. I use them for more laid back stuff as well. I think that’s the kind of stuff they were probably intended for anyways.
Metal is tricky to get right in an IEM. Many IEMs are do it ‘OK’, but very few do metal really well. The driver has to be able to be able to be fast. With good midrange, but not harsh in certain frequencies.
