How's the bass on the graphene compared to vido and emx500?

Less mid-bass hump. Cleaner, more detailed, yet still very impact full. More sub-bass to my ears. Ymmv.

Hi,
Is the graphene earbud on other popular ali stores same as the NiceHck ones? I am asking since the NiceHck graphenes are priced higher compared to the rest and also shipping is high.
If the rest are the same then i might buy from any of those stores.

How are the Cypherus Blue Darths? I have heard they are bass heavy. What are they comparable to?

Think of a sub-bass focused Zen 2. They're not mid-bass heavy like Vido's that drown out the mids and have sharp highs. More sub-bass heavy, which drown out all other frequencies. It's a dark sounding bud with foams.

They're the first buds where I actually prefer them without foams. I should look for some silicon rings to keep them in place actually...

How are people rating the Monk + higher than the TY (Hi-Z) 32ohm? I've got both those phones and the Monks sound like cheap trash compared to the TY. The TY have really good mids, a much clearer sound and are far more dynamic compared to the Monk+

I think the biggest problem with those particular ratings (and many others I guess) is that people don't necessarily have both because there's no way they'd rate the Monks higher if they did.

I have both, really enjoy the Monk+ and find the TY HI-Z 32 to be nigh on unlistenable due to the harsh upper mids. So it's all down to preference really. Different for the TY HI-Z 32 balanced, and the Seahf 32, both of which I liked as neither suffered this. I never had the v1 TY 32 though, pretty sure mine was the later version.

i tried today mbp 13 -> usb to microusb anker powerline -> pha3 -> dual 3.5mm to 2.5mm balanced peterek adapter with rean connectors/socket and nucleotide wire -> ve zen 2.0 standard 2.5mm balanced.

guess what i did straight away? i contacted lee from veclan to get ve zen 2.0 with dual 3.5 for pha3!

btw what is the major difference between zen v1 and v2? why on old chart v2 is rated lower then v1? looks like we can not get v1 anymore while v1 monk is still available o_O

I can't comment on the v1 and V2 differences as I haven't heard the V1, although from what I've read they're quite different. The original (v1) Monk isn't available any more, only the Monk+
