  Thanx for the link, I did see that. I like their initiative but I doubt I'll ever go back to a screen less player. 
Well, we should probably get back to the Monk + :)


Just listening to the Monk+. Rapidly becoming my second favourite earbud.

Is 24hr burn in enough for monk plus?
Also what does lee thinks of burn-in?!


50 hours minimum according to Lee. I´m on my 2nd pair now and to me they sound great straight out of the box. Compared them to my old Hifiman ES100. Monks beat them easily in every way imo. It shows that an earbud isn´t necessarily better, because it is a higher ohm bud.

Don't know if all of you guys know but there was a Reddit AMA with Lee
As usual with Lee "brutal honesty" over there...Also a bit of drama about the thread taken down and back up.
 
Although Lee's attitude seems "cool" over the web, I think it might be exhausting for those who work with him 24/7... Lee you got to relax sometimes it's not good for the heart :)

I found the baggie with spare covers. Ripped one putting it over the first cover. Managed to get a 2nd cover on each side and now the are more comfortable and the bass is thicker. Gonna try out the donuts today and if need be maybe order the Hiegi full foams
