Monolith M300 In Ear Planar Earphones
Returning my RMA'ed M300 from the recent sale as well. They don't have any more for replacement, and would not let me exchange for M350. Both my original order and the 1st RMA replacement have bad right ear. QC is really horrible on them. I can see why Audeze stuffs cost more.- jjmai
