Umm....Monet 17 is region locked in Japan, no? A malaysian like me can only dream of getting it, from what I hear...I could be wrong though.

EDIT: I just asked Jaben. They seem to still have those demo models. :0

There's still hope! Le gasp!!

 
With all the expectation stemming from its name, the Monet 17 is in fact one of the more U-shaped or mild V-shaped offering from Fitear - not exactly vocal focused if you ask me. (at least that's what I experienced from the demo)
 
The Private 333, MH334 and 335DWSR are more mid-rich, with the 334 the standout for vocal heavy repertoire. 333 is more bright and energetic and tends to be a bit more analytical, 335DWSR is a have-it-all option, with meaty vocals, just less in-the-face when comparing to the 334. The standard 335 is again mildly V-shaped with a more atmospheric bass than the Monet 17, whose bass, while heavy, is on the quicker and snappier side.

Ah, thanks for telling.

Sadly my budget only allows me to get either F111 or Private 222 if I am patient. Though 334 seems the most ideal for me...

Just got the 335DW yesterday. I would have to say that its one of the best pieces I have, together with the Noble K10.

How long does it take nowadays to get a customs Fitear in Singapore/Malaysia?

Mine took a month.

Good to hear they're back up to speed. Mine took that too back in Dec 2013

A month to wait for customs to me is a very 'comfortable' period of time, anything longer than that is abit crazy.
 
How do you like the 335?

Last I heard, it was around 5 months of wait for Singapore orders.

Jaben SG, or Jaben KL? My 335 took about 6 weeks to arrive around a year ago via Jaben SG. I'm wondering if there's a difference in wait times between the two, since Jaben, from what I've heard, sends the orders out in batches, and I assume Malaysia doesn't have the same demand (though I could be mistaken) that Singapore has for FitEar customs, so smaller batches and shorter wait times.

  how does it compare to the noble k10? Im now choosing between the 335dw and k10, sometimes prefer the k10 while other times prefer the 335dw... dk which to get. please share your thoughts 

Since you have tried both, I would not need to explain to you how each one sounds. Do you have any specific questions regarding the two?
 
But to me, the K10 and the 335W are two of the best IEM's that I have ever tried/owned.

I have the K10U and the MH335DWSR and I'm selling my K10U. Not that any one of them replaces the other, they are both extreme top notch choices. But I am using my 335DWSR more and more, and I may contemplate a custom K10 in the future if I do miss the K10U and if Noble doesn't come up with anything even more badass.
