I don't have the whole be lineup but am a huge fan of the zen lite and monk lite 120ohm, they really sing even out of my phone (granted, my phone is LG g6 with quad dac) and sound best out of my recently acquired ibasso pb3 balI have most of the VE line with the exception of the asura and dukes
so far the zen, zen lite and the monk lite are my favorites
I bought a dozen or so of the monk pluses and give them away to friends and acquaintances who listen to music on t heir phones to show them what's possible in that form factor
Unfortunately these days, most people have those dang iphones or phones with no headphone jack
I usually slip in those over ear silicon hooks I got from Ali in a giant bag as an option in case they fall out since they are buds
The new monk plus resealable packaging is a big help
naked zens/zen lites connected to the runabout or littlebear is my favorite portable rig for the office or home
lately I've been hauling 20 IEMs in a tool bag to work everyday so I can compare them against each other and decide what I want to keep
the new ZOEs or Zen Omega's will give me allot of flexibility at Mr Lee starts coming up with new an better unbalances and balanced cable setup
I do need a better source, as I'm using a plenueD, iPod 5th Gen and Fiio X3 gen2 for now
While I am waiting on the the Kickstarter HiBy 3 and Mass Drop Hidiz AP60pro to be made I ordered the Bengie T10 from Penon
On AliX I tried to get a Xuein iHiFi780 but it was out of production and the new Shanling M0 which was cancelled because they now have a US distributor
the monkpluses with my LG V30 are my go to option while waiting for meetings or doctor/dentist appointments as I just keep them in a small velvet bag and slide it in my pants pocket and I have no worries decent sounds anywhere and I can still hear when my name is called
