Do you mean hiss in the midrange

that might be one way to describe it... idk that the frequency(ies) itself is in the midrange but it's definitely kind of a 'texture' to those notes, not like breathiness though, I said "TTTTK" because it's a little similar to blowing air through the teeth when making a 't' sound, or the hard stops when making a 'k' sound.

they are very revealing ear buds

Just got **** pt15s. Boy do they stink. Way too much high end. Hopefully reshelling them helps, but i honestly doubt it

Qian 39, good base, not ultra detailed but i might say it beats the monk, will compare more later.

Boarseman mx98, amazing. The bass is just right and so is the rest. Not boomy bass, perfect.

Yuin pk2, not great full bass sound, but still something silky about sound, special place in my heart as first modern dsy bud i liked.

Faaeal 64 ohm, not into.

Yuin pk3 , similar to pk2, slightly more aggresive msybe, less silky... shockingly similar to yuin pk2.

 
Wow, you must really hate the PT15. It should never be necessary to mess with EQ but did you try increasing the bass? I use my PT15 every day. They are like a musical magnifier. On some tracks - good recordings or not so good recording as in bad mix, I grab the PT15 to hear details. For example keyboards lost in a muddy mix. With the bass pumped up a bit they are great all rounders. My source is LG V10. I also love the Qian 39 and if anything, EQ adjust the bass a hair down. I'm intrigued about the Boarseman mx98. Do you also have the Boarseman mx98s? Does anyone have an opinion on the difference in sound?
 
By the way, we all have our opinions, since we don't use measuring tools (which exist) to make quantitative comparisons among earbuds. And blind listening tests - Monk+ vs. Candy for example - never seen mentioned.

I finally got around to taking a few photos of the MusicMaker TONEKING TY2:
 
 
As they burn in, I do enjoy the sound a bit more.  I would not say they are a natural tone, but they are quite clear.
 
Bass is not as distant, though still on the light end.  Build quality is top notch on the TY2, really well put together.

Nice pictures, but shouldn't that be TONEKING TKY2?

I used to think that too, but from the Official MusicMaker/Toneking page they have listed as TY2:

If anyone is acquiring my two week old set of Shozy Stardusts, PM me. Burned in for 50 hours, 10 hours head time. They were my intro to the world of earbuds... already upgrading. What fun
