Like Monk beat all my CIEM kinda hyping? If so, I agree

exactly, its just ridiculous. like it has been nearly 2 months since they finally arived so my memories can be a bit warped but from all the 600 comments i had read only like 10 people gave it some cons and only negatives ive got is that its got a lower bass level and they are not as good as HD650. you can understand how hyped i was

Not as much bass as you thought and not as good as HD650? SUPER LOLZ!!!

So now that you've got Monk, order Monk Plus and see which you prefer. If you're looking for HD650-ish, I bet you'll like Monk Plus better.

i thing ive written it incorectly. like theese are the only cons that ive read at this discussion. its not what I think. they are completely off at some lower frequencies thile some spikes at higher middle frequencies hurt my ears (so far it ocurred only in one song). they are tad more flatter than i would like. maybe they are not correctly placed in my ears but if i try to push them in the bass gets warped even worse. but thats just like the first impression.
and lot of people says they are awesome for orchestrial music. well not really. but i wouldnt dare to carry expensive out in my city, so these will still fit me nice.

Obviously, fit is very important. And from what you're saying, I'm still betting you'd prefer Monk Plus.


yeah i think i will try them.
and im just saing again. for the price they are awesome. i put more negativity in previous comment mainly as reaction for the praise of this product that really got out of hand here in this thread

@Denir I bet you'll be amazed once you try it with an 75ohm adapter. I agree with @nmatheis, you might like Monk+ more. :wink:

You forgot your salt shaker. All that earlier praise needed proper seasoning. I based my expectations on the earbuds that I have used in the past and the assurance that these were much better.
And they are . Not really an audiophile, more a wannabee. Could not get over how much fun these were to listen to. Radioparadise on my oneplus one became a simple joy. Not a boring earbud, no way. I can't hear test tones much above 8000 hz, maybe that helps.

Copy/paste your tracking number into the Singpost website, and it will tell you where your package is...use the "AlExpress Tracking" link at the bottom of that page you pasted. Then add tracking number for more detail.

Both of my orders are on US shores. Where I don't know, but it did give me more details.

That means AliExpress received your package from VE....@Jincuteguy, that is...
