Interesting, compared to the other low impedence IEM's I have here.EDIT: I originally mentioned something about Bliss's 2ohm output impedance affecting sound and XLR opening up sound.
For those interested, I didn't find MK3, but MK2 and Prestige are here:
Impedance dips quite low at high frequencies.

Hi All, does anyone use the Monarch MKIII with the WM1AM2? Just wondering how this combo is as I'm looking at buying this, or the Prestige Ltd while my CA FU7s are being repaired.

I'm currently listening to the best album of Marilyn Manson: "The Pale Emperor". I recommend to all MK3 owners to listen to the bonus track Day 3 (Bonus Track). Just WOW!!!

pair it with an apple dongle, m15, wa7, n8ii - minor changes if any.
it will give u its all right away on any source, it won't benefit better sources.
that being said, they sound fantastic.
just pair it to whatever u have and ull get top performance.

I agree it’s relatively minor differences with the Monarch Mk 3. The biggest difference I got was when I plugged it into my Ferrum Oor. More control overall in the sound, but changing portable devices has been relatively small changes, which, like you said, is great because they sound fantastic as is.

You will not regret it. I use them with my Go Pods, but tbh, they out perform my EE Odins.

If you can, try them with the AK 2000T, the Mk.III love the tube mix!
I agree on the amp side, but not the dac side. Even my wife who is not audiophile at all was just jamming along another night while testing them from HQP->May->Bliss, but Mojo 2 was a disappointment in comparison. I agree that it's no comparison. But it's the dac IMO, not the amp, as it is so easy to drive anyway. You mentioned testing different amps, daps, but no high-end dacs. Try from something like apple dongle and chord dave side by side and you will see the lightmmk3 doesnt scale.

I was also very clearly able to hear differences between different filters and modulators in HQP and also DSD1024 vs DSD512 (on May that is able to reproduce those in the first place). I think it scales surprisingly well and this scalability was something that actually amazed me.
