If you're looking for bass, wait for the B3s Dusk. This is a neutral sound, it's for people who look for balance, which I think it's not really your style judging by your mic balance. Cheaper iems are more bassy because their target is people who don't know much about iems. These are sterile, natural and in-depth.

I quite like them. At first I was disappointed, because they didn't have a "wow" factor. Genuinely considered returning them. But they grew on me, and over time, the lack of a "wow" factor became the "wow" factor.

They have subtlety to them that's rare in my collection. Rather than EQ'ing my music to sound more exciting, they were presenting the music as it was, with only the slightest of coloration. The mids and treble are emphasized, but buttery smooth, which is a difficult balancing act to accomplish. You get the sense that they could have squeezed more perceived detail out of the drivers by going for something more over-the-top, but the natural tuning is the star of the show. The bass isn't huge in quantity, but it's fast and richly textured. It's definitely not a basshead IEM, but the point of the Isobaric driver configuration was to make the bass drivers faster and more efficient, not necessarily make them "slam" harder

I'll caution that you have to enjoy this style of tuning to justify this purchase. The lower midrange is too thin for certain genres, and you'll get more perceived detail out of something far cheaper, like an S12. But in that case, the tuning is far less even, and some of the other qualities like imaging, are also inferior.

Something like an AFUL P5 may also sound technically comparable, but the quality of the treble presentation is not on par, even if it has more of a fun factor than the B3

I love the B3, but it's definitely a difficult recommendation for the average listener

6:40 can you list the other IEMs that have figured out how to push forward higher end vocals?

[jari]

It's great that you give an honest review 👍.

Finally another IEM which isn't all about the bass.

[PhoggHawk]

B3 has very good sub bass, but it's a little bit lean on mid and upper bass, and so lacks some warmth. I really like the IEM but it isn't perfect for all situations. It does really grow on me the more I listen to it, though. It's also beautiful and that shiny shell has me reaching for it often. I do find that it is very picky about ear tips. Nothing, including Spring Tips, makes them sound as good as the stock tips for some reason.

[Kawartha]

Interesting take 🤔
I’ve seen all the reviews and I just get the impression people really wanted to fall in love with this IEM….partially because of a look ….and the lineage.
Doesn’t seem like it’s happening tho

Funny thing is Crinacle, the man who tuned the Blessing 2: Dusk has come out and said the Blessing 3 and Moondrop took notes from his tuning and essentially made the Blessing 3 as duskified version already, he said it had more bass then the Dusk already. Though if you look at the graphs they are essentially the same +- a few DB in areas but still I think people are just use to a V shaped sound now and when they hear something much more neutral/harman they tend to not like it.

I think the Blessing 3 is an upgrade to the Blessing 2 and a sidegrade to the Dusk. I think if people want more warmth from the Blessing 3 they should wait for Crinacle to release his collab version he has also confirmed as he tends to add more bass and tame the treble a little. That's his house sound.

Thank you for being true to yourself Josh.
I remember you saying that you are looking for hard hitting clean bass and pristine detail in your audio gear.
And also you're more into speakers and headphones than IEM'S.
This explains why you're underwhelmed by the b3.
You're after a tuning that does 2 things; a bass tilt; a tilt filter that emphasize the bass over the treble and upper mids, and a slight bass shelf.
Well blessing 3 basically doesn’t have any tilt; it's frequency response shows a very lean and natural lower mid tuning; it's completely sterile in that department and it's minor bass shelf is just too little to give warmth to the lower mids.
Some people prefer this because this style of tuning usually highlights the dynamic range of the songs better. But it lacks the grandness of a speaker.
Chu has little bass but it has a tilt and Aria has a very high bass shelf along with a tilt. So it's natural for you to lean towards those.
I want to buy the b3 but I'm sure I'll dislike them at first; currency I'm building my own preference target and like you I too want a deep and surrounding bass but I have limited budget and would like to buy the most detailed set rather than the most fitting to my preferences.
I want to experiment with auto eq. And b3 is the best base model for that.

So if you're not a "bass head" these sound just right?

[aaronfriedman]

John If you change the cable to good quality single crystal copper 4.4mm it changes this IEM. I loved this IEM once I changed the cable. I also found that Spin Fit W works best. It helps the sound signature. Sorry but with the better copper cable and Spin Fit W tip there are NO $300 IEM that come close to the blessing 3. The blessing 3 does have bass. It is just extremely tight and crisp because of the driver configuration which eliminates resonance. So my take is totally different on this IEM.

[ProdiJay]

I been using my Blessing 2s for about a year and I absolutely love them! Though, I probably won't consider getting the Blessing 3s as they don't seem to be anything TOO special, but they definitely seem like a decent choice for anyone looking to upgrade from a cheaper pair of IEMs. I personally know I'm fine with my daily drivers, but will eventually get an upgrade or even possibly endgames at some point

Also amazing video, very well shot

[zloinaopako]

If I understood well, the in ear stem is actually 11/50 (eleven-fiftieth part) of an inch, as the length is properly measured in the US.

[drip]

Great vid man, can you make a revisit on the m1070's from monolth they updated them and changed the price to $220 from $400. If you can thank you so much

[EyeCanShootFL]

Curious as I am kind of new. I have a set of the original moondrop starfields and then some Parrot P1 iems. I am looking for something 300 or lower that has good sound stage but also a bit of a bump in bass. Do you have anything else you reccoemend?

[NightFoxXIII]

I have the B2:Dusk and really love the treble and amount of bass it provided. I've been using it regularly and the right IEM detached itself from the faceplate after heavy use. I've contacted Moondrop to try to replace the single IEM but was waiting for B3 content to see if I could bite.

I'll just get the B2:Dusk replacement IEM then.

[housepianist]

I came very close to getting the Blessing 3 but ended up getting the Kiwi Ears Orchestra Lite. Not bass monsters by any means but so well-balanced, detailed that somehow combines clarity and resolution with warmth and smoothness. Very happy with my purchase.

[Zephyn]

Thanks for the review. Been considering some pricey IEMs to upgrade from switching between the Aria and Truthear Zero.

[John.Christopher]

Why not just EQ more bass because it handles it EASILY. Its unfortunate that it doesn’t fit your ears. It can rumble my head..

[shadowhawk]

Loving the Final A5000 alot recently, it's my most used IEM other than my CIEM.
It's on a similar price range as the Blessing 3 but also a good amount cheaper.
Really hope you can do a review of it considering that you have done reviews for the rest of the lineup.
