Sorry, you lost me there. Please clarify.
I think he means whether VE Monk SM is a good recommendation, considering it has a bright signature.

No I havent. And not interested either. LBBS killed all my interest in getting more buds.
So perhaps I'll must have a try to LBBS.
Any Aliexpress link?

Did you ever try any Blur model?
Ey "compañero"!

The original question was asked by me.

No, I have never tried a Blur earbud. But I know that they are much more expensive than for example the one I have right now (RY4S), and I don't want to try blindly.

I see that you have a couple of them, and that you expect 3 more. I see you like them. From what you already know about the ones you have tried:
- Is the capsule smaller than that of the RY4S?
- Do they have a brighter signature? I had been recommended the Blur OFC mx64 STE aPs as I love the sound of the Oriolus Isabellae

Is LBBS really that good?

Will the capsule be smaller / more comfortable for the ear than the MX500 of the RY4S?

I don't know how RY4S is, but I can tell you that 189 mx64 or 266 pk32 are both on next level above from my Isabellae.
189 if you like better soundstage layering and separation, 266 if you like more intimate vocals and better bass.

Yes, why else would I not be interested in getting more buds lol.

It is a lot smaller than the mx500 shell. And to me very comfortable.

Just the perfect excuse to get them! That and the fact my RY4S 32 MMCX with a pretty XINHS cable are not being used at all and I´m looking for something a bit more clear sounding than the X6 to complement it. The RY4S impressed during the first couple minutes with its clarity and good bass quantity and quality, as more minutes went by that clarity revealed itself for what it was, a brightness that made me reach for the X6 every time, I was going to relegate them to movies / gaming but their size makes them uncomfortable for me so they´re now in the "gift, friends-family" queue.

The LBBS is brighter than the X6 though.

(you can use EQ to make it the true upgrade for the X6.)

Yes, I´m looking for something slightly brighter, though not as bright as the RY4S, I think you have the 300 Ohm version? How is the treble vs the LBBs?
Yeah I do have the 300ohm version and it is not good lol.

Even the X6 is better in it in the treble.

Sounds like I need to order a set of those LBBS too, very high praise.

A selection of foams arrived today from AE, should keep me going for the rest of my life 🤪 Some donut foams in there too and a few other variations of thickness etc, look forward to some foam rolling!

A sure sign the earbud rabbit hole has been entered - a draw full of foams more colourful than your favourite childrens clown. Love it!
