Our Take

Bravado MKII brings back everything we loved about the original, and adds a touch of refinement at the top. The addition of electrostatic drivers helps enhance the soundstage and imaging, and add a level of technical prowess to the Bravado’s brutal, powerful sound. Put it all together and the Bravado MKII provides an engaging bass heavy tuning, with a level of performance that makes it a standout in its price range.

From Empire Ears

The Bravado has long been a favorite of musicians and audiophiles alike. It's balanced signature and segment leading separation lead to high-performance for any use-case. The Bravado MKII builds upon this foundation, upgrading the dynamic subwoofer to our all-new Weapon IX+ subwoofer and adding dual EST drivers and our EIVEC system to bring a nuanced and layered presentation that heightens the listening experience to new levels of musicality and analytical enjoyment. The powerful and refined low end dances across an enormously increased soundstage while the dual EST array delivers the finest details with a clarity that never dominates.

For the Bravado MKII, the apple didn't fall far from the tree, but it sure got a whole lot tastier. The tribrid architecture of the dynamic Weapon IX+ for the lows, a balanced armature for the mids, and ESTs conquering the highs make for a statement piece that demands attention.

The Bravado MKII has an all new livery, adorned with a suspended metallic glitter faceplate - called Deep Field - that, like the sound signature of the Bravado MKII itself, toes the line between subtle and bombastic.

Alpha IV cable

At Empire Ears we believe that an extraordinary IEM requires an extraordinary cable. We're proud to introduce Alpha-IV (A4); a premium handcrafted 4 core cable comprised of a proprietary 26AWG UPOCC Litz Copper with multi-size stranding. The advantage of multi-sized stranded design within the same encapsulations enables A4 to achieve distinct highs and details due to the signal transmission speed in thinner cable strands, while the thicker size cable strands deliver smoother bass and mids.

Absolutely Amazing Bass

First, thank you Bloom Audio. I'm a first time customer and the entire ordering experience was fantastic, ordered open box and it was immaculately clean. I was hesitant to buy the Bravado MKII as it's often described as a "basshead" IEM, I'm not too fond of that description as the basshead IEMs I've heard before are all bass with zero resolution in the mids and highs, might as well just wrap speakers with cloth and tape them to my head if that's the signature I'm looking for. But not these... I was looking for something that accentuates the lows but still keeps the mids and highs detailed enough, mainly looking for a "fun" IEM for Psytrance and EDM tracks, and boy did the Bravado MKII deliver! Listening to Morten Granau, Phaxe, Astrix or some good progressive like Armin Van Buuren is a brand new experience for me with these IEMs. Exquisite deep and detailed bass, yet all of the detail pops out. Definitely recommend, but not for all genres - I won't be listening to vocals or classic on this one, but now has become my favorite for electronic.
