Nope they are the cheapest they will be. Message Jim on aliexpress.

I am certain the final product they are selling will be just that. The final product. No worries if they will do revisions or anything like that.

Just received my Blon BL-03.

I was immediately blown away by the fitment of these, worked like a charm with the default ear tips -- flush and super comfy. Unfortunately, it seems as though I got a defective unit. There's a noticeable channel imbalance. I'll try another cable later, just in case.

Sound sig seems good! Hope I can get this resolved on my own.

That's a shame about the imbalance. I'm listening to mine now and quite surprised by how good it is.

Sound stage while not the widest is moderate in presentation. Not confined but not a truly wide sound for earphones either. Hence what is really separating the NX7 from a true higher end sound is just this. The stage. I suggested to Jim that next time they need to figure out how to get the stage nice n wide. Has good depth and projection of sound. Sound separation is actually one of the best aspects about the NX7. Due to the many drivers it has. You get sound cues from all over your hearing especially in the treble. Mids are not forward but not recessed either. These do have bass but it is tasteful now and not in your face as the prototype was.

2dbs might not seem much in the way of tuning an earphone but believe me that little bit is the difference in being overly done to having a good amount of presence for bass. I noticed a bit of extra clarity due to the little bit of bass reduction on the final version. You guys are getting a better product as a result.

Interesting especially considered the headfi offers. However, I'm curious about all these cheap planars popping up which apparently have a huge soundstage (is this always the case with planars?). I wonder what next is around the corner! I'm a sucker to soundstage.

It is the F3 that has the planar for the mids. has a big roomy sound due to it. The NX7 while using a piezoelectric for the super high notes. It is using dual layered dynamic and 2 dual BAs for the bulk of the sound. Speaking of the F3. I posted my take on it here. https://www.head-fi.org/showcase/nicehck-f3.23721/reviews#review-22372

A bit of a missed opportunity for NiceHCK. You couldn't possibly use a worse cable for the sound tuning on it. Anyway it has been an interesting month of listening to it and writing about it.

So far, really good. Been listening to the BLON BL-03 most of the day while at work. Early impressions are that they're pretty balanced and non-fatiguing even on aggressive tracks with lots of treble and excessive bass. Not the bee's knees in terms of high end (i.e. not Sonicast Dirac Plus MK2), but better than most things at this price point. I've heard low end that's a little more defined/detailed in other earphones, but those usually overemphasize it at the same time. Low end emphasis feels just right to me. Mids are good. In many ways they can compete with things at higher price points, and I'm a fan of their ergonomics.

I know some will be interested in these :)
EPro Horn Shape tips. Looks good for both wider bore and for Westone, Shure etc. in the second pic. Designed to open up the sound and stage.
