Product Information

Similar to how the mid bass's slams are impactful and sound straightforward, the sub bass's response is well extended and induces a supple sensation of rumble in the ear canal with hard hitting punches. About the trebles they are on the safe side, it’s quite hard to hear some harshness also on high volume.

This perception helps to generate a musical and relaxed impression of the mids, with a more marked sense of density, body and physicality, but without edges, or delicacy of detail. It is also noted that its low frequencies really smudge across to other frequencies that make it really veiled and murky sounding. The most emphasized are the mid-bass which are very pleasant, also the sub-bass is well represented. It is not a very rough or descriptive bass, but it is not soft or smooth either, which adds a rougher and more enjoyable point, very much in keeping with that dark colour.It has a two-dimensional, typical basic two-channel stereo panning presentation where you will be able to locate the arrangement of instruments and singers but not in a well-pinpoint manner. For some countries, it might take up to 2-3 months, depending on your country, its customs and other factors.

Has BLON redeemed itself through this collaborat Compared to Z300, Cadenza sound profile has a more neutral approach as it has mild-U shaped tonality. It is not that I think the others have been bad, they just don’t suit my personal tastes, usually due to an excessive presence in the lower ranges.

I believe it was my third or fourth headphone in my life, and that soft and cozy sound immediately enchanted me, so much so that I keep my BL01 with affection to this day. What I am happy to say is that Blon have finally, with the help of HBB, brought something new that puts them back in the spotlight of budget IEMs, something that has not happened for a long time.

The only place I ever give scores to IEMs is on Head-Fi, as it is obligatory, but what you get with the Z300 for 30€ is certainly worth 5 stars. However, the driver with a silicone diaphragm proved to be very slow for the kick drums of Blind Guardian's “Valhalla” , while at the same time it makes any complex track quite messy. The 2 pin connectors on the cables included with BL03 and BL05 feel identical to this cable's connectors. Underneath are the brand's contact details, while a headquarters in Dongguan (China) and another in Leipzig (Germany) are highlighted.Another highlight of the phone is the timbre and the presence of triangles in a forró, and when it comes to violins , once again the BLON enchants in timbre, and also delivers a good dose of airiness. I am not affiliated to LINSOUL or BLON nor receive monetary incentives and financial gains as they provide me a review unit for an exchange of factual and sincere feedback from yours truly. I have no idea if they are gold-plated or not but they are certainly very gold, at least the model I received. The cable is a beautifully braided 4-core copper cable, which is decently thick and feels very premium in hand.

It gives a more emphasis on note weight on bass drum kick to sound full but it sounds a tad hollow and dull sound while on bass guitars, they have this mellow and hollow sound which give that lack of growl and roar. If you come to the cable part, the blon brand has deviated from its classical line and put a good cable in the box. I like to think that the inexpensive dynamic drivers are not only winning in the low end, but they also offer good performance in the treble, adding a more appropriate, accurate and balanced timbre to the sound.

I'd say the mid bass leaks in the lower mid range and by how much determines how dull or clean it can sound. Until now, the Cadenza have been my reference for the top spot in the under 50€ range and while I feel that the Z300 are good enough to trade blows, they don’t remove the Cadenza from the top spot for me. But let’s get on with my usual process using my normal detailed listening playlist (which can be found in full on the blog BTW) and starting off, as usual with the graph in comparison to my personal preference target. Like the previous BLON models, due to that inherent bass smearing, it overwhelms the quality and quantity of the midrange and Z300 still has those characteristics.
