Makes sense, like I’m the same for the opposite reason

What headphones have you heard, where you thought the treble was too much? Or OK?
DT770, DT880, DT990, DT1990, T1
HE-500, HE-560
HD800
AD700X, AD900X, AD1000X, AD2000X
Grado anything
Stax L300
Tin T3
Anyone have any opinions on how the blessing 2 would fare against fiio’s FH7? I prefer a balanced sound (think dt1990).

Zeos also did a review which no one bothered to post lol.
Interestingly, Zeos wasn’t a fan because he found the sound signature to sound off or something. Normally he isn’t picky when it comes to that stuff. Meanwhile Max Settings gave it high praise saying they could compete with $1000 IEMs. I will have to add these to my consideration list.

I think because he used his dekoni foam tips and probably he uses the balanced cables (dot) markings on the wrong sides like all dot markers should be pointing all downwards or all upwards(thats why he think some BA used are off.I have tons of eartips for b2 and I think diff tips and sizes affects its sound IMO(i like the default ones and some JVC spiral tips), Also they don’t benefit at all on balanced mode IMO they just dont need it,it just adds more noise while using balanced using my R6 Pro

Nice. How are they?
I’m still waiting for mine because apparently there’s a worldwide balanced armature shortage.
I really like them. I was worried about possibly a bad fit based on the reviews I’ve read, but they fit perfectly for me. I just plop them in and can use them for extended listening sessions without discomfort.
I know it’s a minor thing, but I hate the way the cable looks (the connectors housing). You can see the soldering and wire folds through the clear housing, which imo looks very cheap.
However, sound wise, overall I’m enjoying the blessing 2 a lot. I particularly like the detail retrieval and mids.

Yeah he puts dekoni tips in everything without knowing it sounds awful on some iems like the starfields sound terrible with foam tips

Well he still like the Starfields with foam tips. Tips effecting how an iem sounds is problem with iems as a category though. Doesn’t really matter if iems sound great if they don’t fit or are uncomfortable.

I got the Blessing 2 last week. Had a random $30 off coupon for headphones.com and they matched the Black Friday sale price from Shenzhen, so ended up nabbing them for $240. My initial impression is that the hype is very warranted. Still in the honeymoon phase but they fucking rule.

Ooh that’s good to hear! I ordered mine off Shenzen for 11.11 and requested a custom faceplate so I still haven’t gotten mine yet. I’m still waiting on the B2, but also a Shuoer Tape Pro and the Peacock/Reecho Spring 1, and I just got the Thie L5, which is my favorite set right now. I hope the B2 holds a special place among these.
The Moondrop KPE was my first IEM over $100 and I fell in love with IEMs afterwards. I had some really great memories with that set because I brought it with me to my first trip to Japan, and I remember wearing it in super loud environments and being impressed with how much of the quality still came through. It saved me from a lot of headaches. I’m now hoping Moondrop brings something wonderful to the table again with this B2 set!
I have had the Blessing 2 for a couple of months now and the Shuoer Tape Pro from last week (plus many others). When I hear either male or female vocals I grab my Blessing 2. They are warm with a mid-base emphasis which is wonderful for vocals. They also have enough detail to satisfy. I agree with Crinacle’s assessment: they are some of the best tuned IEMs on the planet! I tried to use foam tips, like Zeos, with them and that will completely mess up the base. I use AZLA SednaEarfit XELASTEC 2 and shove em in, just wonderful. I found Zeos’s review perplexing but now I know. The Shuoer Tape Pro are better with purely electronic music because they are very fast and even more detailed, just not as well tuned. The Blessing 2 seem impervious to EQ but fortunately don’t need it. Don’t hesitate to buy.

had andros…havent touched since these arrived…i find I use iems out and about and the andros while nice, are a sit down with and pay attention to details thing…which i do with cans NOT iems. the andros will likey get sold. really missing the puch of a dynamic. i have sets of solaris, atlas and cascades coming - interested to get the full breadth of campfire in my noise holes. hopefully the rumble is a bit better with them. these are a steal new and typically you can find em used for 50-100 cheaper…i would say a must for any arsenal…btr5 and these are so so so good for walkabouts…spintips or other silicon/foam tip and audio bliss out and about
is it true that they don’t fit if you have smaller ears? are they that bulky?

I normally use a medium small to small sized eartip and I’m normally really sensitive to pressure from uncomfortable nozzles (either too long, sharp, or wide) and the B2 nozzle whilst wearing feels average. There’s no particular discomfort unless I put it in and roll on my side for a couple hours. The nozzle diameter is more of a problem when finding compatible eartips more than anything else.

Hi, I am new here. I have a few question to those who had the chance to test the Blessing 2 , B2 Dusk and the Tin P1.
I currently own the Tin P1 and the Fiio BTR5. I recently found a very good deal for the Blessing 2 and was wondering whether it is worth to upgrade or not. Even tough I really like the combo with the P1 and the BTR5 I wish it had a tiny bit more Bass and also a little bit more Soundstage. So I have a few question:
- Will the Blessing 2 sound it more like the Dusk if we EQ it? Will there be some noticable difference?
- Is there some major difference between an Tin P1 + a very good DAC/Amp and an Blessing 2?
- Is it worth it to upgrade to a Blessing 2 from Tin P1 or should I just buy a really powerful AMP and EQ it?
