Just received my Blox YIN today ! (was fast! sent 14th and received today 20th to France!)
Quick impression right OOTB :
physically : they looks absolutely identical to TM9 (shares same plug, cable, housing, and still delivered with VE thin foams, but in blue this time, same box and same case. The only difference is the very small black heatshrink upper the longest transparent one, maybe to recognize TM9 and YIN?).
sound : At the beginning they sounded almost same as my previous TM9, but I was wrong, there is definitely an improvement. They are much less laid-back, much more details in mids and highs which are this time more forwarded, while keeping the same bass texture and extension (it sems even better more controlled now). They are still sounding quite transparent and natural, with a rare precision. Soundstage looks the same, but I feel like it is even slightly more deep now.
Now I'm sure this YIN is the real TOTL from Blox that some of you were waiting for. I really feel like listening a ful headphone now. Incredible experience.
There is much thing to talk about sound, so I will try to sum-up all of this part in a proper review soon, and of course as always, after a full proper burning
But definitely, my EMX500 mod is already blasted compared to YIN (without any surprise..)
