Mini-Monarch MK3 with less bass and details. 80% there. Harmanish tuning, and best all-rounder before Studio 4.

Poor bass performance and sounds like surface-level detailing due to mid-treble recession despite great frequency response.

Good sub-bass but lackluster impact in the mid-bass. Mid-range is fine, but could use more separation/layering. Good techs for the price.

close but no cigar. Sounded great for most genres but bass guitars and kick drums and instruments/vocals that lie the in mid-bass/lower-mids range sound too recessed. Noteweight leans thin and analytical. OG B2 gets my recc over this. Previously Owned

Warm leaning with thick, thumpy mid-bass that hits pretty deep and hard. Decent vocal and treble extension, although female vocals are warmer and huskier. Good for hiphop, rap, r&b, but low-end isn't fast enough for busier genres like rock for example. Bass texture and resolution is slightly soft and not very separated, hits really hard, but sometimes bass notes feels like they've mushed together into one note. Hype 4 is straight up a better version of the Davinci when it comes to low-end texture and separation, as well as overall resolution and vocal playback; and if you're ok with EQing the Hype 2's low-end those are better as well because they use the same isobaric design as the 4s (Low-shelf, 100hz, +2-3db, Q 0.5)
