Good suggestion! They say they are compatible but some original batch do not have the right MMCX cable. If you get the GO Pods and they don't fit right, they will send you a new mmcx cable under warranty!

That’s great! I will tell you from experience that the sound quality of the Go Pod is impressive! Setup and pairing is also simple. The Go Pod itself is also comfortable to wear around your ears. My only complaints are that the touch controls are rather sensitive and still needs more refinement with its functions, and firmware updates are a bit cumbersome.

but I like the stock cable, if you use a splitter, then there will be no microphone effect, and the splitter is perfectly fixed on such a cable, because. on braided cables, the splitter is either very poorly fixed, or the cable itself must be very thick and uncomfortable
A couple more lines compared to the ie600 monarchs: technically I don't see any superiority in either, the detail/separation/scene/bass control of both are very high and that's very impressive in the ie600 because it's just one dynamic driver!
As for the naturalness of the sound, there is also parity here, all live instruments from the lowest lows to the highest highs sound realistic and very smooth on both models.
However, I can hear the difference and it has to do with energy: the ie600 gives a sound with more energy, at a short distance it can even impress more than the sound of monarchs, but after 3-4 hours of continuous listening I find that I get a little tired, and after that I switch to Monarch and I feel that the energy subsides, and at first it seems that the sound is too relaxed, but after 10-15 minutes of getting used to it is no longer noticeable.
As a result, unlike the u12t, which I simply could not listen to after the monarchs, the ie600 can be safely alternated with the monarchs.

I had the Monarch MK2s but the were too big for my ears. Great sound though, the best I have heard. I got the campfire audio dorados but I am finding them to be too sibilant. Will likely sell them on for some IE600s. How do they deal with or handle sibilance?
I don’t hear any sibilants on the ie600, very smooth and natural sound, the only thing is that with regular ear pads for me there are a lot of high ones, so I listen to them with foam ear pads from comply
Listening as I type. So far, I've really struggeled putting them on and into my ears funnily enough. Much more so than with regular tips (makes sense in a way as these only really fit in one specific position obviously). It's a new territory for me. I've never had custom tips before. It's interesting to see how different the left one is in comparison to the right one. Even the bore size is veryy diffrent (left one being much bigger than the right one).
All of that said, they sound amazing once they fit correctly. Bass impact is improved which makes sense with the perfect fit and I hear less tendency towards sibilance even when the volume is turned up quite a bit louder than I normally listen to. So, sound wise a small but noticeable improvement, imo.
As far as comfort is concerned, not so sure yet. They feel strange in the ear canal as they're really stuffing the canal (as they should). Will have to get used to the new feeling and see how the adjustment process goes.
They are made out if silicone and feel a bit sticky, so they will likely attract dust particles easily, They can be washed, though. Lastly, they are missing the mesh part the stock tips come with. So let's see how much of a problem ear wax etc will become in the future.

I’ve always had custom IEMs so I’m a big fan from a comfort perspective. Custom IEMs typically comes with a cleaning kit and dessicant for proper maintenance. IEM brands like 64 Audio sells cleaning kits and dessicant as stand-alone accessories. I highly encourage you to obtain a cleaning tool for the ear wax and dessicant to help remove moisture buildups.

I agree, very comfortable headphones, but I really don't like the cable
