I sent an email to Linsoul just to ask the question in regards with the faceplates. Hopefully they can confirm that the design can be different sometimes from the picture on the website. I included a picture of my Monarchs for reference..
Linsoul has no interest to confirm that you could have probably the clair. An answer that you have the monarch could be true, but you never know.

Oh I am definitely keeping this and having fun. I'm just curious in case at some point in the future I need to buy another one. but perhaps I shouldn't worry because at that point maybe I'll be into something else.Linsoul has no interest to confirm that you could have probably the clair.

thats odd you ordered yours recently right? looks like your monarch doesnt have the lip on the nozzle the newer ones are supposed to have to help the tips stay in placeI think I'm ok actually. This picture of a monarch doesn't look all that different from mine. I can calm down and relax now.
Perhaps the picture before didn't show that well. I'm guessing you are talking about the metal nozzle?thats odd you ordered yours recently right? looks like your monarch doesnt have the lip on the nozzle the newer ones are supposed to have to help the tips stay in place

ah yes there it isPerhaps the picture before didn't show that well. I'm guessing you are talking about the metal nozzle?
Yeah, it is a lot better than the Legacy 3. In the end I has to kind of settle of the Sony Hybrid ear tips for the Legacy 3. Mainly because they have a smaller bore diameter so they fit decently on them.ah yes there it is
Thanks for the suggestion. I have ordered a pair of these so I'll give them a go. I also ordered the FX10 Spiral Dots but they will take a few weeks to arrive.Try the CP500 tips. They work really well with the Monarchs. Glad u like em! I'm waiting for mine to be repaired. Unfortunately one of the Bass drivers cut out in my left earpiece.

How does the Oracle compare to the kinera nanna? I'm debating on which one to get

I ordered mine the 27th. And they are still in process. I received an invoice yesterday but no shipment yet.Took about 3 weeks. Ordered them on the 26th of April I think and they were sent out on the 18th of May. However I think they sent out an email after I ordered mine to warn of delays. Its supposed to be two weeks normally but they state on their site up to 24 days now and I think thats business days.
Strange. Unless they got a ton of orders right on the 26th and 27th of April but that is unlikely. Checked my emails and I did order them on the 26th around lunchtime. Only other thing I can think of that they had to start making it again for some reason because it failed quality checks but I would have thought they would put a priority on it if that happened.I ordered mine the 27th.

if you are really curious, you could shine a bright light (cell phone flashlight LED will do the job) into the shell, and count the number of BAs.It does say Monarch on the box though.
Well I'm not sending them back cause these sound great. The only problem I have is are they a Monarch with the wrong faceplate or are they actually a Clairvoyance?
I shined a light into my Clairs, and can count the quad bass drivers and single mids driver
The quad bass drivers are located next to the electrostatic driver transformer, near the point of the faceplate triangle, along the bottom edge (bottom edge referring to the side of the faceplate triangle that has the "O" of the Thieaudio name). There are 2 BA stacks, each containing 2 BAs. each stack has its own sound tube exiting, and both of these merge into a single sound tube, forming one of the four bores. Bores 2 and 3 are from the Estat and Dynamic respectively.
The single mids driver is located directly halfway between the nozzle and 2 pin connection, along the top edge of the faceplate (top edge referring to the side of the faceplate triangle that has the "T" of the Thieaudio name). This is the 4th bore.
Hope this helps

I'm pleased to say the Linsoul discord team (Deng specifically) was excellent for exactly this; I noticed the same more muted faceplates on my Monarch I received last week and wondered if I might have received a Clair, but the nozzle was correct based on differences between the two.
I decided to reach out and send some pics to them to confirm anyway and Deng even went so far as to search my individual unit FR graph and confirm it was a Monarch.
Was kind of him, I just wanted some visual confirmation. The gold flecks are there, just muted. I presume they are all unique and this batch has less of them.
