I went for the Wooden Green faceplates during the 2020 November 11th sale because I couldn't decide on a custom engraving image (and I wasn't familiar on how to properly format the image for engraving use anyway).

I wished there were a way for me to demo IEMs above $500 where I'm from without having to buy and return them. This is why I'm hesitant to buy IEMs like the Monarch Mk2, U12T, S8, etc.

Yeah, there is an issue with the monarch that it's shell is very large, so that's a no go without a demo, however I would consider S8 to be a relatively safe purchase because of the safe tuning and adequate fit
