The sound being canned would be too much mids no? Maybe he just isn't positioning them correctly inside his ear

the sound in the box in the sense that the sound seems to be closed and dark not airy.

Monk+ is way too bright for me and lost bass as compared to the OG, not too sure what he's hearing.. Maybe they actually fit his ears?

Thinking of going back to wearing earbuds for a while. I miss the size and comfort in comparison to the headphones I usually wear. I did used to have a pair of Yuin Pk2 which actually I loved. I wonder if the monk + is as good as the Pk2 would anyone know or maybe I should stick with what I know.

The yuin series probably has better detail than the monk+, it's been a while since i heard a PK2 last, it is definitely better at being good at everything than the yuin is. the yuins never made good all arounders IMO. the monk is great with everything

I read the whole PK2 thread before I purchased and they turned out pretty much exactly as expected only the cable kept breaking at the jack so I'm reluctant to buy another pair. I've ordered the monk+ and if they turn out to be as good as the pk2 or better then I'll be very happy especially at this price point : )

Not sure why I keep seeing Hi-Z stuff mentioned here so often. It's pretty clear the Monk has won the war so far when it comes to price-to-performance earbuds.
 
Anyways, I have a bunch of different Monks now and I have to say I'm leaning towards the balanced (2.5mm) one, with the 3.5mm adapter. There's a slight refinement to my ears, with more space in the mix. 
 
Does anyone else have them? Willing to share your thoughts?

I just prefer the Hi-Z regardless of reputations.

You're entitled to what you prefer, but it looks a little suspicious to me that you keep popping in this thread to mention Hi-Z. 
 
With how competitive the Chinese audio industry is, I wouldn't be surprised if money changed hand for subliminal marketing such as this, hypothetically, seems.
 
Wake me up when Hi-Z sell 3500 + 5300 earbuds on Massdrop.

I FIND THAT EXTREMELY OFFENSIVE
 
Look at my posts on the KZ and Earbud threads, I have a wide interest. If you don't retract your insinuation I shall report it, it's totally out of order.

@Willber Your post in this thread was completely irrelevant to what we were talking about. If your not selling someting or getting some kickback then at the very least desist from sounding like you are. If anyone should be reported it should be you.
