Yes, I would say the monarch’s have great width and height but depth feels slightly congested some times. The boost in the upper mids in the culprit I assume. Vocals, especially female, take front and center.
Not necessarily a bad thing but I would prefer if they took maybe 3 or 4 steps back.
Yup. Mid-bass lacks the DD feel, but sub-bass very rumbly.
Also agree 
I think width is great, but lacking 3D to my ears. Detail and layering is 
tho
Might just be the fit for me, but are you getting any treble rolloff? 
Nope, none.
I just put it down and went from 1k to 20$.
And these are great but will be a story to tell tomorrow.
Lucky bastard First the Z1R and now the Monarch 
Pronouced: Blessed, skilled, god
Nope, I’m pretty sure it’s pronounced bastard. Like bass, as in the fish and tard, as in the second syllable in retarded. That was mean of him…
Ikko I like.
I loved the Ikko oh10. A iem from a while ago that sounds better than many similarly priced and more expensive but recent ones.
Honestly it’s one of my favourite iems ahead of Timeless, Tea, T3…
Regarding the Oh5 I expect it to struggle and be similar to Variations but more fun.
It could be my iem. I hope to receive it soon.
Out of curiosity, why do you expect a single DD to sound like a tribrid like Variations? I’m not saying you’re wrong, by any means. It just seems to me that even if they graph similarly with similar tunings they will likely be very different when it comes to things like timbre, presentation, spaciality, etc. That’s why your take got me wondering.
@nymz regarding Aful performer 5…you said its staging is week not wide enough…but following my recent filter change on bl03 I kinda like intimate staging since everything else is good…I feel more connected to music than more distanced…my ears.
Do you think if priceing is right I can go with performer 5? expecting it to be lower than tea2 ofcourse.
Requirement.
thanks.
Enjoy when you get them. We will be waiting for your impressions about OH5.
Yes to all 
if the price is right, of course. And I think it will
wow thank you…lets see in 2 days
I wonder how the Mon MK2 sub-bass and surround will be with : Thing " Future betas" (Spotify), Subreachers “Fractals” (Spotify) If it’s really that good it should knock your teeth out. 
At a price of 1000 dollars, it is not only the quality that matters, but also the quantity 
.
Yes. In fact there are already comparisons between the two.
I suggest you drop the bias. More drivers are not necessarily better.
Important aspects like the shape and materials of the cavity, the filter, the composition of the driver are more determinant for the sound than the number of drivers.
I don’t think I displayed any bias. I simply asked you a question and explained my thinking hoping you would do the same so I could understand your thinking. Based on what you said, I was figuring that you must have some knowledge about those IEMs in particular that would lead you to draw such a specific comparison between another pair that is very different in many aspects of its composition and was hoping you might share that knowledge with me, a polite and genuinely curious fellow forum participant and ethusiast. I also went out of my way to say that I wasn’t trying to turn this into an I’m right, you’re wrong thing and just wanted to exchange ideas since that’s ostensibly what we’re here for.
Instead of a nice conversational exchange happening, you’ve apparently felt the need to to get defensive and try to disabuse me of a bias you have no basis for believing I have. That’s unfortunate. This really could have been a much more constructive exchange.
This song is much more mid-heavy than sub-heavy. Or am I missing something?
Yes , couldn’t lie to you 
. So the Mon 2 does have some mid-bass. Some people said it was noticeably absent. That’s what you say if there is a review! “Resolution” said everything was right about metal music ( I doubt) , but I think his hearing is a little off, even though he’s been listening to a lot of IEMs.
Possibly you have the variations or some tribrid and trying to convince you will be difficult.
Honestly I just gave my opinion. It was not me, I repeat, it was not me who questions and denies my mere opinion and claims that the timbre, presentation or spatiality will be different just because.
Look for the comparison on the majorhifi website between the two.
I suggest you don’t complain about the answers you get (very mild I was) if you are going to question and belittle comments you don’t like.
If you took me asking for clarification and for you to share your knowledge with me as belittling, I’m sorry, but I can’t imagine how you function in everyday life. I suggest you go back and read my post. I merely pointed out that the two were very different IEMs and wondered what knowledge and thoughts you had behind your statement that you expected the two would be similar.
If you can quote the part in my post where I was belittling I’d genuinely appreciate it. All I recall doing was posing a question before which I very clearly stated that I was in no way implying that you were wrong. To me that seems like the furthest thing from belittling. I then went on to briefly explain my thinking about why they might be different and even said that your take got me wondering and curious.
If that’s belittling then maybe you should avoid me from now on because I literally don’t know how to be nicer than that. Furthermore, pretending that all you did in your reply was mildly express your opinion is a farce. I’d submit that you, sir, were the first and only person to attempt any belittling.
Thankfully, my ego isn’t that fragile and survives intact. I fought battles in real life so I don’t have the inclination to fight them here. I didn’t “deny your mere opinion” or any of the other nonsense you’re now claiming to try to justify your poor behavior and lack of manners and tact so stop trying to play the victim. If you’re not here to share and discuss opinions that what are you here for?
I’ve been nothing but respectful. To take a page from your book, I suggest you learn to do the same. Have a great day or a wonderful night, as the case may be. Happy listening!
Yea I bet the Lithium DD will surely sound the same as the ass-DD used in a Moondrop IEM…not to mention the tuning differences. 
Maybe Campfire Audio IEMs would fit your preferences?
