Better low-end texture and overall more engaging than MK2, but lacks the mid-range/vocal magic, so depending on your preference either is great. Still TOTL tech like MK2. Great all-rounder.

I prefer the Monarch MK II for its tonality, vocals, and timbre, but I get why some prefer the MK III. More bass, treble, and detail than the Monarch MK II. The vocal magic of the Monarch MK II is gone.

Elevated, well-textured mid-bass. Pleasant mids. Elevated upper-treble may be pesky to some.

An improvement in the bass and treble department over the Mk2, but without the same special sauce in the mid-range and with some imaging problems still.
