If you read the thread you'd know why you won't be getting any anytime soon, either.

Really nice those KC08T... Please when you have time please tell us you would it compare with current forum favorites (and please compare its bass with Edifier H180 and its highs with Edifier H185 to have my own reference)... Thanks

Well .. it is already a good thing I did not force you to buy it, lol
High quality of sound in the absence of the low-mids, contradictory ..

kc08 is lacking in mids imo hope the kc08t is better

Well you have two VERY fine portable amps on the way, maybe you need to look into desktop amps too?
I also highly recommend DAC upgrades

The packaging of ty hiz is classy tho very slick

How the Ti-Hi-Z 150 Ohm compare with the original monk?

Suggest some desktop amps that are actually worth it?

And not sure about DAC's...I just use my AK JR. Dont really use my phone or laptop much.

wider soundstage and slightly better details

Yeah your DAP has a Wolfson DAC so that's not bad at all. If you ever start using the computer to play stuff a USB DAC is a great investment.
 
There's tons of good desktop amps out there but I think, since you will be mainly using earbuds (I make the same recommendation to IEM users looking for desktop amps) either look for one that has selectable low/high gain OR selectable output resistances, so you can limit the amount of power going to the output in a variety of ways. Garage1217 incorporates these features on all their amps and generally make stuff hitting WAY above their price point. Great CS too.

There is also the new Schiit Modi Multibit DAC. Seems a very nice DAC for the price, no impressions so far but worth waiting a little to know more.

A big shout out to @golov17 for posting his pictures, making me pull the trigger and ordering the Boarseman MX98s a couple of weeks ago.
I didn't think I would need them, but I could not resist the nice wooden box and accessories.
They arrived today and I absolutely adore them with full foams straight from the iPhone. For me they fill the gap from Monk/Monk+ to Cygnus/Ting that the Tomahawks couldn't.
Naked they are overly bright though. They need full foams.
 
I ordered the Boarseman K25s and the QianYun Qian 25 in the same shipment. They sound quite ok for the price point, but are kind of redundant if one already have the Monk/Monk+

Nice! I just ordered AG RX-1 and Boarseman MX98s now and waiting for some DIY drivers.
 
@springbay how does it sounded compared to Cygnus? the highs area is a bit less veiled than Monk 1?
