I do not wanna be super critic but.. The Blon BL-03 have sibilance and it's fairly audible.
If you can stand some of it, then they're superb in everything else considering they're single DD.

@Nimweth , just to answer the message of today.
I must say I have not experienced sibilance so far, I mainly listen to electronic and classical music. Of course my source equipment will be different, as will my cable and tips, and seal may vary with ear shape.

I would recommend the Audiosense T800.
298 USD. 8 Knowles BA each side. It is bright, so if u are treble sensitive it may not be for you. Slightly U shaped.
But the details, soundstage, clarity, instrument separation are the best I have heard at this price range. Even though it is a BA bass, it has great and clean punch and sounds almost like a DD bass due to its design implementation and vented subwoofer.

Is BA Bass similar to DD Bass for t800?

It is very close, but not 100% the same as a DD bass. I would say (subjectively) it can hit about 80 - 90% of the quality and quantity of my TFZ No. 3 (single driver DD IEM), which has the best bass in the IEMs I've heard so far IMHO. But the TFZ No. 3 bass wise has a bit less details and more midbass bleed than the T800 bass.
The subbass and bass of T800 is very clean and accurate with just a slight decay and movement of air. Very atypical for a BA bass. Good timbre and quantity.

Just ordered the Magaosi DQ4 for $132.52. I have a feeling that I probably will not like these, but at that price its worth a shot. Worries for me. Size. It looks pretty big. Bass. Always hard to tell how much bass something has by reading descriptions of how much bass something has. Everybody has their own ideas of what is bass heavy, and most the time they are not in line with my description of bass heavy.
Could you provide a link or the name of the vendor ?

Thanks

Guys does anyone have any experience with the **** MT100 Planar and BA iem? How is the soundsignature?
Its been written about here a couple times, but in round about ways as SFR is a band brand here at headfi.

Anyway, both people that summarized them both said super flat neutral with large stage and poor isolation.

Aha, thanks.

Yeah, very flat but not bright. They don't have the greates bass impact but works well with most music. They're really really good at what they do.

Nice, listening too the Tin Audio P1 right now. Also a planar iem, like what i hear. Sound like what you just described. But need a good source, Even my og V10 " hifi" phone make then sound medicore. The Fiio is much more clear, and IT opens them up well.

Yeah, the same is true for the MT100. I love the way it sounds with the E1DA ES9038S. I'm also intrigued by the P1....

That E1da dac looks promising, what do you think about IT?

I totally love it! Haven't come across one single pair of IEM's or headphones that doesn't sound amazing from it. This goes for everything from the HD800S and HE560 to Meze 99C, MT100, A6, TSMR-3 Pro and many more. It's the real deal for sure. I've got a very large inventory of amp/dac's and I can safely say that this one is the best value for money I've ever come across, it punches way beyond its price. I'm pretty sure that this is the best balanced source one could get under $100 today.

Sorry for getting carried away but this thing tend to do that to me :wink:
