  Then may I  kindly know which would you recommend for wide-soundstage and good detail/micro detail? 

 
That VVV

  Perhaps the Mojito!

 
...then again, you won't have sweet mid with this choice.

Compromises must be made in this hobby, sadly.  Honestly, to me the Mojito simply outperforms the MX985, which is still a fantastic earbud.

what do you mean VVV Sifu?
 
I know it is impossible to have wide ss with sweet mids.

But my priority is wide ss with good detail.

Too bad the Mojitos are waaaaaaaaaaaay beyond my budget mate.

Haha tomahawk getting no love or getting most love. Stuffs that divide people usually special. Can't wait for mine to arrive. But honestly I'm more concern with report of build quality. Hope just limited Issue and not widespread. Iirc at least 2-3 post mention of buzzing issue. How's Easy Earphone handle warranty?

Gramo One and Cygnus come to mind. Actually Zen 2 and Asura 2 do quite well on mid with the right source as well. Truth being told, I really haven't noticed any particularly great mid-centric earbuds in the market right now (* not that Gramo One or Cygnus are bad in anyway either, just that they are not exactly mid-centric)

I don't like to recommend headphone blindly, so here is something to start you with: http://www.inearmatters.net/2012/07/sound-choice-illustration-of-sonic.html
 
While something that is higher on the list might represent a safer choice, it is not a substitute for considering your personal listening preference.

 
I hear you... I wish any of these were available locally to test... Thank you!

Red color.

In case you guys aren't following the monk thread.

I am curious how many of the people ordering those through massdrop already have a pair

Guys, what's the best form and mic to measure an earbud? I knew the Veritas system but it's a bit expensive atm for my propose. I'm used to using REW to configure and calibrate my room with speakers, but I saw the majority people using ARTA software nowadays for measure headphones, has some tutorial and the correct profile like IEC 60318-4 specific to earbuds?
 
I've bought some dynamic earbud drivers and more 3 pairs of E100 to check with precision what's going on and see what they changed also I wanna build some earbuds too and that's will be nice to check channel balance and distortion.

I ordered. Was going to get one in black anyways just in case... Red even better!

I haven't heard the Monk+ but the Tomahawk I'm not terribly impressed with at all neither is the person that gave it to me. Pretty "meh". I'd say spend the $40 on something else.

Are your ears broken..??  

Also my ear is broken, I don't like the tomahawk
