The Brand New Blessing 3 is -MID-

[@frightenedchaos]

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.

[@John.Christopher]

I don't think the Blessing 3 is sterile at all. The details shine and it handles EQ like a champ. I often put a 7.5 dB boost in the sub bass and it punches while the other details in higher frequencies remain practically unaffected. Other times I use it flat. It's extremely versatile. Depending on the Music you can EQ some mid bass as well. It Handles it incredibly

[@bla_ank]

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

[@donnytramp6955]

b3 bass is actually very good

[@aaronfriedman8201]

BASS is very fast! It does not have resonance since it is cancelled by design. so it sounds thin, but actually in other Iems you are hearing resonance.

[@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?

[@burns0100]

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.

[@John.Christopher]

Blessing 3 is amazing

[@zloinaopako]

[@Roni-u2c]

They have a flat sound profile that follows Harman-based target curve quite well

[@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.

[@bla_ank]

I feel like Spring Tips suck the bass out of everything I put them on. The Spinfit W1's are ok with the B3, and they're a really good combo, aesthetically. I had to stop using the stock tips, because they kept getting stuck in my ears...

[@bigherb]

@@bla_ank "stuck tips"

[@John.Christopher]

It is incredible EQable! You can at 7.5 db of sub bass and even some additions in the upper bass.

[@troy041007]

I have many iem, cheap and expensive in my drawer. B3 bass actually is good, but basic criteria must met - tight fit tips may be L R need different size, when judging we have to be fair test it in quiet room. My ears can hear cello rising up in symphony 9, only 3secs empty as my ears are pretty old. imaging is clearly separated and accurately posistioned. Wide but not sufficient depth as others iem. 2 words to summarize, B3 is airy and spacious if you listen to high quality source. Happy having it.

[@theherra3194]

Just got these iems, they are awesome but they dont stay in my ears which i should have noted before buying them. I have grappled so long that both of my ears are a bit deformed because cauliflower forming on them. I wish iems would fit my ears.😮‍💨😔

[@jari121]

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

[@mehmetgurdal]

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.

[@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.

[@vagabond2797]

well this isn’t the dusk variant yet so……it’s coming soon

[@NightFoxXIII]

@@vagabond2797 The problem was that B2 already gained massive praise in it's default form (like B3) but just needed a slight re tuning to get that bass shelf back. So if B3 is already mid then..... I don't think a tune up might fix some of its other current problems. We'll see though

[@RoyalCrownVG]

Hi! Were you able to buy a single detached right iem? I recently ran into the same issue where the faceplate detached itself as well

@@arthurhaywood2184 despite being a vocal lover myself, A4000 sounded too vocal forward to me which causes it to sound congested and harder to perceive depth. At that price point I would go for IE200 instead.

[@reflection1119]

I went for the A5000 over the B3, based on reviews rather than auditioning myself. My very first impression was... Excellent bass, excellent separation, spaciousness and resolution... But it was brighter than I expected, and depending on my mood and the recording, it can sometimes creep into VERY slight harshness (emphasis on "very slight"). It's tricky because the airiness that makes it sound spacious and crisp, is, I think, the same thing that tips the harshness over on certain tracks (think R.E.M. losing my religion). Overall I am really enjoying the flavour it brings to my collection, and am happy I bought it instead of the B3. It also looks pretty darn pretty and I like how small and light it is. I wish it came with foam tips or that there were some dedicated aftermarket foamies available for better isolation. I've tried random foamies I have lying around, but they cause too much bass to be lost and add a little more brightness. I also really like the cable and case they come with. At £50-70 less than the B3 I'm surprised they haven't been talked about a lot more.

[@aaronfriedman8201]

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.

[@thaflybear]

What other IEMs have you tried? Is B3 the most technical under $500?

[@aaronfriedman8201]

@@thaflybear I also have the DuNu sa 6 mk 2. It is much harder for me to get the Dunu to sound right. It clearly has resonances from bass drivers that blessing 3 was able to minimize. While I am able to get blessing 3 tuned slightly different depending on the cable I use so far the Dunu sounds the best with its own cable. I do have 2 more cables ariving this week to check out. Also note that I do equilize sound. I do not like heavy bass banging on my eardrum from The front of the stage. I like a more expansive presentation where the bass does not seem up front and strong but part of the whole presentation.

Definitely the better choice. I tried both and ended up keeping the Orchestra Lite. The vocal performance on the Lite is phenomenal in this price range. Blessing, in general, is becoming a sort of cult following iem and I genuinely blame many MANY reviewers for this due to how highly they rated the B2 and B2D. The Blessings don't offer the best vocals, treble or bass response in their price range but everyone buying them has a mindset as if they were buying an apple product. It's weird.

Unsurprisingly, it did better than the B2 and so the B3 has slightly more bass. That's why these are how they are.

However, it looses out to the sennheiser ie600 which handles complex tracks, classical etc far better than the Timeless (which I find pure fun for most tracks and great if I'm trying to do something else like work.

Get the Blessing 3 and EQ it. Are you after details and delineation? These are your ticket. The slightly recessed upper bass/ lower mids brings out the finest microdetails.

It does not have tons of bass, though it is sometimes overwhelming on some tracks, I feel there is plenty. It is never muddy and I feel it has deep sub-bass and is very good at representing "textured" bass like a growling electric bass or an upright bass. However, it is not forgiving and I believe it needs a source capable of delivering this sub-bass (a USB-C/jack dongle on a smartphone is not) and also has nice treble extension because the Blessing 3 is quite smooth on treble compared to, let's say, an Hifiman Arya Stealth.

So this thing is absolutely terrible for anyone that will never touch EQ with a 10ft pole. On my setup I just have a +3db bass shelf, but I also have an EQ preset with +6db which i found was very fun for phonk tracks because of how fast the dual dd setup is, and being multi-DD doesn't come with the usual consequences.

The Blessing 2 is basically the Blessing 3 with much less bass To quote an head-fier: "I rather listen to silence than music with the blessing 2"

[@robertobuatti7226]

I recently purchased the Blessing 3 and was excited to get it and hear it, that is right until I heard it, I've spent many hours with it but it sounds blunted and muted, nothing from my DAPS to my dongle Dac/amps can make it sound dynamic, rich or exciting. I'm not rich and this was my first kinda expensive mid-fi IEM as I purchased some cheaper budget IEMS but they sound way better than the Blessing 3. I feel like I wasted my money.

[@thaflybear]

did you keep it? have you tried a new cable?

[@robertobuatti7226]

@@thaflybear Sorry which new cable?, I might sell the Blessing 3.

[@thaflybear]

@@robertobuatti7226 The stock cable is supposedly pretty bad and replacing it could make it sound like it should. Could also be a eartip fit issue or even a bad unit.

[@robertobuatti7226]

@@thaflybear Yes definitely, I think I might get a different cable for it to see if it makes a difference in sound quality, and I'll change the ear tips, but if they still sound dull and muted and not very dynamic I'll probably sell them.

Blessing 3 remind me of the HD600. Some people will just not like them for being that clean.
