More bassy than? Normal Monk? V2s?
Compared to normal Monk (which is MP5) I honestly forgot since it's been ages since I had my last normal Monk. With Monk V2s, no, V2s has punchier bass than A1. Imo this A1 goes on similar way as Monk GO that is outright flat sounding buds, but this (A1) are a little bit more lively but not to the point it become like MP5.
It is not as bass-y as V2s, but it is not as flat as Monk Go, A1 goes in between them, imo.
It's hard, I can't really say that there is a bud for authentic bass heads, but there are two DIY drivers that IMO can bring the bass to a good level, they are 130 bery and 64 ti pinkdot

Have you tried the CNT 300ohm or 32ohm
Yes, CNT and DLC (300) are two drivers that are very close, CNT being ahead, DLC seems softer to me, both have good basses, rounded and deep, but not with more punch and texture than the ones I mentioned, the The problem for me with 300 DLC and CNT is that they are boring for my tastes... but both are very good.
This Monk A1 is a pleasure to listen to. Ever so natural, excellent vocals, great resolution and air. With the Retro dongle it synergizes really well.
If anyone is into classical/small ensemble you would be super silly to miss out on this pair when they release. I don't imagine they will be too expensive either.
Calling all timbre heads, we have a budget behemoth on our hands!

It's not out yet. I imagine it will be available soon!
Your post has got me intrigued as classical is what I listen to, will purchase once available. Will see how they will stack up against my current favorite - Red Serratus.
It is a very different tuning to Red Serratus with flatter bass, more low end roll off but with more organic vocals. This is very much VE house sound, being especially mid centric. Better timbre than PET driver though, imo. Red Serratus will probably beat the A1 in resolution and staging.

I'm officially a Venture Electronics afficionado. This setup is such a soothing and warm listen. Not the last word in technicalities, but oh when the mood is right ... I also have a pair of Zen LL incoming which should provide a different take 
Ugh, what a night awaits me...
I'm glad to see more SIE owners, because they are really great IEM-s and deserve more attention.I'm officially a Venture Electronics afficionado. This setup is such a soothing and warm listen.

This is simply great, my congratulations to VE, they have managed to surprise me, I did not expect this sound, it has far exceeded my expectations.
