Got them! First thing I noticed: they stay in my ear (instead of the Earbells). Took some long time to get the donuts attached but wow. Just wow, $8 really? They sound open and warm, detailed and very pleasant.
Bob Dylan sounds wonderful. Just right! Great.

Got my Earhoox in and...the Monk's are held more stable in my ear but still not being held in the right position for optimum sound quality. If I hold them in the right position they sound very very good and may even sound better with just the stock red foam donuts on them but they do benefit from the Earhoox stability wise. I wish they had made these an IEM but they probably wouldn't have sounded the same. Great hp for 8 bucks just compromised by the design IMO. I'll still use them but wish they were positioned the way I like.

It took me a couple of day to get used to, but now when I used them, I don't even notice that they're in my ears.

I admit I had doubts when I read DJScope saying: "This just might be the best value for money earphone/IEM/headphone that has been ever made" then I thought: "what the hell, if it isn´t up to par, the loss will be minimal"  well now that I have them I subscribe every single word DJScope wrote. These earbuds sound fantastic, yes I had a hard time putting the red foam donuts on and yes they feel slightly big and I have to point  the cable part forwards for optimal sound quality, but what a sound quality!! And that´s connected to my Galaxy S4 phone listening to FLAC files, so I imagine things could get even better with an improved source. I´m so glad I found this thread

Have you tried the monk with a 75 ohm resistor by any chance? I think @nmatheis suggested it earlier. I dont have a resistor plug to try it with but might be interesting to see how it affects the Monk sound.

It makes it need more power to reach the same volume

Don't have one. I think the Monk sounds great already!

LOL!

With a 75Ohms adapter the bass impact is slightly reduced pushing vocals equally slightly forward. Athough I usually enjoy forward vocals the weakend bass impact makes the Monk less engaging and enjoyable for me with the adapter. YMMV

Was looking for foam donuts like Hiegi on Aliexpress and found these http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Free-shopping-50mm-Soft-Foam-Earbud-Headphone-Ear-pads-Replacement-Sponge-Covers-for-Earphone-MP3-MP4/32307685399.html Title is wrong, they are not for 50mm (I have talked with seller). They should work like Hiegis right?

Gotta try this one for a change
