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.
