Definitely worth it to keep on your radar

  @Danneq: I just curious about the extension of bass on the Tomahawk. Could you compare the extension and amount of Tomahawk's bass to VE Monk ? I wanna get new earbud that has deeper bass and more energy, forward in mid-range than Monk with price of 50$. Thank you very much !
 

Right now I'm listening to both of them on my Rockboxed iRiver H120. The Monks have great detail and could easily be sold for $30. They are definitely on the same level as, or even above, Yuin PK3 and Blox BE3. Soundstage is really great on the Monks. When I switch to the Tomahawks, I do hear more punch in the bass. Instrument separation and layering is also better. But soundstage is slightly less extended. The Monks sound like $30 or $40 earbuds while the Tomahawks sound like $100 earbuds. At least in my ears...

I can say that the Monks beat my DK-PU wood eabuds that I bought from Aliexpress for $59. Well, bass is deeper and punchier on the DK-PU, but soundstage is much smaller and instrument separation is not as good as on the Monks.

Danneq Thank you so much for the detailed comparison. I just ordered the Tomahawk. According to your description, it can be suitable for me.

@Danneq, which do you think have the widest and deepest soundstage? The Monk, DK-PU, or Tomahawks?

Thank-you

The difference between the soundstage on the Monks and Tomahawk is not that big.

Going only be soundstage (depth & width), I would rank them: Monk -> Tomahawk -> DK-PU

You have much more monetarily decisive ears than me, that's for sure! All I know is that if I spent $100 on the Monks, I'd probably think that I got a good deal

E600 boring, es903 bright, Mrice not comfortable fit, even though a good sound, they are all different in price. IMHO

Has anyone own "OSTRY KC08 HiFi Audiophile Grade Earbuds"? Love to hear impression on this earbud. It looks amazing. Love to find out how it compare with VE Asura | Zen | Tomahawk.

kinda curious about these, almost like supersized earbuds with 23mm drivers http://www.bedphones.com/FAQ.html

 

[Saoshyant]

Kind of.  I'd guess maybe something like earclips, the size seems about right.  I know I toss and turn a bit, so I'm not sure these would work for me.

No mention of Freq details... THD.. Resistance etc.. etc.. such basic information. Huh.

Haha! I'm just comparing the Monks to earbuds that I think are around the same level, such as Yuin PK3 (around $30-35) and Blox BE3 (around $30). And, yeah. If the Monks had fancy packaging and accessories, they could probably be sold for $100.

Edit: And if you would be willing to spend $100 on the Monks, you should really consider the Tomahawks for $50!
