Blessing 2 Dusk has more bass. Still balanced tuning and still sound fantastic

I want bass without sacrifices, I was thinking in getting the ie300 for the bass, I heard they do it good but I don't want to spend 300bucks on bass, then I found the s12 and I'm a bit afraid that they're not technical as good as the b12. And also, are the b2 dusk bass a lot noticeable compared to the blessing 2?

I only have the dusk and haven’t tried the OG Blessing 2 but it looks like it has about a 5 decibel rise in bass.. Other than that they’re pretty similar I think so maybe it doesn’t make sense to own both but maybe the Dusk is tuned more to your liking.

I haven’t tried the S12 but it seems like it’s one of the best in its price range. The B2 is also probably the best in its price range (I love my B2D! Blown away to own an IEM this good) so I probably wouldn’t want to go with a cheaper IEM either.

I got the s12 a couple of days ago and have owned the ie300 for a few months. I am no expert so maybe you wanna take my opinions with a pinch of salt! I really like the ie300s for their comfort more than anything else, you can easily wear them all day and forget you have them in. In terms of the sound, the ie300 has more bass than the s12 which has a lot more treble to my ears and I find I need to listen at a lower volume. One thing I will say about the s12 compared to the ie300 is that the sound is much wider, whereas the ie300 sounds very close. Vocals are so much clearer on the s12 if you care about that. If you're looking to get a cheaper IEM with more bass I really enjoy the Truthear Zero and out of the three IEMs I mention I find their bass to be the most enjoyable (really good punch, when I listened to Karma Police with them for the first time it put a genuine smile on my face!).

Ohhh the truth zero, I was also looking at them, but the fact that the blessing 2 may outperform in clarity/detail it just made me think that it may not be really worth it

I'm guessing you're going to be hard pressed to find something cheaper than the B2s which have better detail, but you'll certainly be able to find cheaper IEMs with different tunings which you may prefer overall :)
