Hopefully you take those everyday. Glad such a simple post about my likes triggers you so much. Thanks for reading though

Sorry you feel that way. You have the right to think what you want.

 

Being an audiophile for the last couple of years and dealing with IEM’s has truly be a blessing. I have learned so much from people and have seen the goodness and the not so good from this world and its fans. I think this is the way of things with all things, not just with Audiophile groups. But when I look back over my life and just how blessed I’ve been to be able to find ways to afford this very expensive hobby that it can end up being, two brand standout the most in my whole life for IEMs. Those brands are MoonDrop and Thieaudio. These brands have served as the backbone of greatness from mid tier to killobucks IEM’s. And sitting here listening to my Monarch MK2 I’m in sure marvel of the richness and mid range magic …I see the steps I took to reach this point. From the Starfield to the Kato, blessings 1,2,3, and others, from the Oracle MK2 to the Monarch MK2 and all things between. These brands have meant the world to me. The slow progress I took to build to this moment of my endgame and understanding the law of diminishing returns to keep myself from spending unnecessary money on side-grades, all played a big part in my life. The role each step I took to understand what I loved so much about the timbre, tonality, imaging, mid range flat frequency love, to the sub bass, and treble extension. Every one of my steps taken gave more education and discipline into this hobby. So I’m so thankful for companies like Moondrop and Thieaudio for their amazing creations and tiers of art that they brought to my life and to this IEM hobby. So grateful, so blessed, and so indebted!

First off congratulations! I recently got my Monarch MK2 too. Do yourself a favor and just allow yourself to be happy about what you have before looking over your shoulder about something next because the higher you go up the price ladder the harder the law of diminishing returns will be to overcome and what you have in the Monarch MK2 is so well done and well balanced in sound that nothing really truly is objectively proven better all together over it. You will only get deviations from certain points here and there but I don’t believe there is tech out there that truly is double the sound ability of the Monarch mk2 at any price. But the same can be said about other top S tier IEMs. The Monarch MK2 won’t be double the sound of those other top S ranked IEMs either. So just be happy that you have a wonderful IEM that you can easily claim as your endgame.

Ok, maybe I did something bad in the eyes of the purist, but OMG...Adding this Monarch MK2 cable on my Oracle M2 along with Spring tips from Moondrop just completes an already heavenly experience. I love how it adds just a touch more richness from the cable and an even better fit with the Spring tips. I know people have their subjective views and all but this cable is my favorite looking and feeling cable I've seen for IEM and now on my Oracles MK2( which still holds my top spot for my ears as the perfect IEM) just makes it even better, if that was even possible:). It truly does look like a baby Monarch MK2 now:)
