Another great content Timmy, sweet IEMs list for vocals, THIEAUDIO Monarch MKII is on my list to get down the road, and have a great, wonderful, blessed, positive, productive and safe week.
Sad to see oracle go. But both are from thieaudio anyway hh. I always tried to eq my variations to sound like oracle because of that treble sparkle. It did the job for me, but hopefully one day I will have chance to hear the real oracle, and probably monarch mk2 as well.
Hey man! When you get some new iem where do you test it? I mean where do you listen to music? Like youtube spotify etc? Just thinking how to get most from something like monarch mkii
Not ever displaying sibilance is not a positive, it's a flaw. Sibilance is not always the fault of the iem/speaker. Very often it's in the recording & if it's in the recording, it should be represented in the playback if that playback system is accurate. It's probably why you don't feel that the Monarch II is as resolvable as it should be.
Good ole Tin T2. My first iem ever. Beginner sets that still gets rec'd till today. Was my better sets until I just recently gave it away. Just in the Tin T3 (Melaleuca) Plus. Loving it thus far. Anole VX head-to-head with the Monarch ii's. How about throwing Elysian Acoustic X in the mix?
Oof this vid i really like. Thanks for including a bit of a comparison between VX and MKII. I already own the VX and absolutelly love it. But would you recommend still getting the Monarch MKII? Would you feel theres a need ? Really looking up for this awnser :)
Owning both I can say that I enjoy having both of them. I would say my ultimate set if I were to sell everything and only keep a few for life. I'd keep VX for the super engaging details and high energy listen. Monarch MK2 for relaxing and general all purpose, and Z1R if I want earth shattering fun bass. Those three and I'm set. Switching around is differently fun and it keeps you from getting bored or getting too used to the IEM and losing the magic feeling. So yes, you'd benefit from own both, they are different enough and both play it's own specialized role very well.
@@Gizaudio :D thank you so much man! Defenetly will get the Monarch now that i have that seal of approval. I wanna try the Z1 before commiting because altho I love bass in general, the thing thats scares me of it its the fit and fatigue from wearing them for more than 20 mins since ive found I use tips on the smaller side and thats one of the categories the VX with the ezla tips its just the best ive tried so far at. The comfort, fit, weightlessness and feeling as if music is just happening seamlessly around me.
@@Gizaudio can i just ask why the Mk2 is graded higher and also has a higher enjoyment score, but you would keep the VX that you graded lower and ranked lower for enjoyment?
I was curious if you, Timmy, or anyone else can jump in on this..how does the Monarch MkII compare in shell size with the Xenns up? Those are the biggest shells I own and they’re borderline uncomfortable due to shell size and nozzle diameter after a couple of hours. But I still find them very enjoyable. Just curious for a point of reference to help me make an informed decision!
I have KATO on the way but wonder if I should have bought Dusk. Coming from Etymotics and 9018 DAC. Looking for a all-arounder from gaming to youtube. Could someone who's heard both compare kato to dusk ?
I now have both. The KATO sounds better than my old Etymotic ER6i and I couldn't tell the difference when compared to the Dusk. Probably because of MP3 quality. The problem with the KATO is I cant keep a seal; always pushing them in farther. They are heavy and hurt after awhile. I bought a Hidiz S9Pro and a nicehck pure silver 2.5mm cable for the Dusk. I also use the medium spring tip from the KATO. These fit so much better. The little silver cable is more comfortable than the KATO cable. A question for Timmy's group : How many hrs a day are you listening to IEM's ?
@@joseremigiobarjautorres6804 anytime, enjoy! I had to do some digging myself, ordered mine and am awaiting arrival of the cable. I feel the Hana 2021 needs quite a bit of power to drive, and I bet it would sound better with additional power from balanced cables
@@menixia3140 Thank you for response, but can you solve it (even just a little bit) with an eq? And if not what are some alternatives at the same price range that has similar or better soundstage and imaging but also good vocals?
I think we can reasonably conclude that Timmy prefers the SA6 to the Oracle, as the Monarch MkII booted the Oracle rather than the SA6 for this top ten (specifically top 5)
@@davidcoons89 yea maybe. But he did say the Oracle was is favorite under 1000$ before. and he probably just thinks that the monarch mk2 is just a better version of the Oracle? So there is no reason to have 2 of the same flavor.
@@davidcoons89 in another video when he actually compared the oracle and the sa6, he said the Oracle was #1 in that price range. He said both Variations and Oracle beat SA6, but he ranked Variations higher because it is technically better, but his personal favorite was the Oracle. SA6 was 3rd place. So u can say Oracle and Variations were tied for 1st place in a way.
Moondrop Variations sounds amazing for female vocals but male vocals can be better. Sometimes male vocals come across a bit thin. But for me if the male vocalist is a bass vocalist, it will sound better than a tenor vocalist. Just my opinion.
Which iem will give the clearest sounding vocals, not necessarily the best sounding, but more intelligible and clear? So if you have a bad recording you would understand the words better.
I love bloodborn and dark souls ost ,the choir.😎 Quite honestly, 300$ If you don't mind the open back. It s a headphone, the sennheizer hd600. Natural vocals guarantee. For iem just be exotic I feel like I would be more compelled to to buy an exotic iem than a exotic headphone. Even though i got the sundara .(headphone. ) 300$ you just want reference vocals sound the hd600 Is the answer. If you have to get one iem ,make it special I would like bring more clarifications. The hd600 won't make you move ,they aren't design to do that. The hd600 will give the truth . The hd600 is gonna spit the fact as it is . So you rarely will dance with the hd600 . But the vocals are a standard. While fun headphone/ earphones will tell you a story. If I have to get an iem ,I want fun as well as the vocals I m in search of a fun and creamy vocals with sparkles Something that would make the ost ( lady maria of the clocktower /bloodborn) more immersive than a hd600.
In my experience, stuff like Dark Souls/Bloodborne OSTs (and indeed some other japanese dark fantasy soundtracks) is one of the few areas where Beyerdynamics are superior to Sennheisers. In terms of IEMs, my personal favourite for these 2 games is Dunu Talos, Moondrop Blessing 2 a close second.
I have the original Blessings 2. I honestly flipped a coin between that and the Dusk. Overall I have been very satisfied with them as my first big IEM purchase. Never have I heard such a detailed midrange. The bass (for me) is fine for the most part. I don't listen to a lot of rap, hip hop, or EDM, but there have been a couple songs on my playlist where I wished it had a tad more bass. Maybe I'll be one of those people who will own both down the line 😅
Sorry but none of these come close to Andromeda vocals. Especially when you throw in Azla Sedna Light tips. Monarch MKII definitely isn't there. I got them at CanJam and while they're fun Andros are in a class of their own for staging and euphonic mid range presence.
I personally feel like they’re pretty overpriced anymore by way of comparison with how much the entire market has advanced and just how quickly it’s done so.
@@Gizaudio that would be nice! Too many iems are reviewed as being "great for the money" but if they dont suit your musical tastes then youve just wasted money! I've had my starfields for a little over a year now and no offense but i kinda hate them. Got some TRN st1 for 15$ that although are less detailed, hit the right spot for drums and guitars sounding big for me
Timbre should be first. Who cares about tuning when your set sound off. Tuning only second if not third All of your pics are sibilant. Best timbre non sibilant set under 300$ is found in the Tanchjim Oxygen, the only real end game for most of us.
Clearly, just like people have differences in preferred tuning(s), people also prioritize different aspects of IEMs. It’s honestly quite unreasonable to assume that just because you feel that way about those characteristics that others should value them equally and in the same order of priority. There’s absolutely nothing ‘wrong’ if someone were to take your list and literally flip it in reverse order. I personally value comfort a lot and would place that near the top, above timbre actually..others, like yourself, don’t even mention it under criteria of importance. Different strokes for different folks..keep enjoying your music!
how come he said he played the most sibilant nightmare tracks for the Monarch Mk2 to test it? are u saying he completely made that up and lied point blank? cause why does he claim to hear it on other IEMs but not the Monarch Mk2? That means he can hear it. Otherwise u mean he completely made all that up?
@@Viewer13128 in literally have no idea what you’re talking about..it’s obviously a consideration for many folks in the audiophile hobby but I sorry but it’s completely ridiculous to suggest that your criteria should be everyone else’s. It’s entirely asinine really. And when on earth did I suggest he was lying or being misleading in his video? I never even remotely hinted at that, as that thought never even crossed my mind. Enjoy your timbre above all else if that’s what makes you happiest. It’s not the number one single criterion for me. Nor number two. And I couldn’t care less if someone else prioritizes different elements of the hobby. Calm down and don’t get so worked up buddy..it’s not good for the heart.
@@davidcoons89 ok i'll explain. i was not accusing you. I was asking if he was lying because it can't be a mistake if he said he can hear the sibilance on other IEMs (meaning he can hear those frequencies). so i asked you because u said all the IEMs on his list were sibilant, while he directly said the opposite of what you said and actually claimed to have run it through hell tests. that is why i asked if he was plain lying or not, because i cannot say his ears can't hear those frequencies since he said his ears can. so the logical explanation could be that he's lying. i am asking about the Monarch Mk2, for my own purchasing decision, not for bringing him or you down. I only want to know if he is lying for my purchasing decision, not to bring him or you down. maybe other youtube comments tend to be heated, cause i have no idea why you thought i was worked up (at least not against you or him). i was more in a moment with myself from seeing complete opposite claims during my research and immediately posted to get a clarification. maybe u haven't experienced this, but when researching and coming across exact opposite claims, it means one source might be wrong. if i don't figure out why the different sources are saying complete opposite things, then im basically stuck. thus i had to ask you why you were claiming the complete opposite, and if that meant he was lying.
It's hard to consider $2000+ IEMs when stuff in the 700-$1000 price point have gotten insanely competitive since the past years.
At that price, the only thing that matter is preference
If you have to look at price, they weren't designed for you
Just got monarch mk2 too
It's really freaking addictive
The vocal is so sweet
The bass is perfect. Not too much and not too little. That rumble...
It's end game for me
Yeah, it's tempting considering the price difference with Z1R. But giving 1000$ to China though...I would prefer to support Sony
It is - Perfect. :)
I know right?! I have been long tempted by the Z1R and U12T but now that the Mest MkII is out not to mention a bunch of these fantastic near/sub-kilobuck IEMs it makes it a lot harder to justify those pricier options in my mind.

@Gizaudio - One question if I may. Monarch MKII vs U12T in case of resolution, amount of details.
U12T feels more resolving but only by a small margin
@@Gizaudio one more question if I may. Is Monarch MKII much bigger than u12t?
