In the last couple of days I've been leaning back to getting them.

You won't hate anyone here if you go ahead and get them. They are that good but then I think you have read enough to believe that by now. You just need the final . . . . . . PUSH. . :^)

LOL, thanks

I think it was HPA's review that really put me over that edge...as I was reading it I was thinking that maybe I'd pick up the ES3X since he was saying those were still pretty good but if I'm going to spend that much, I might as well spend a little more for the best

BTW, I'm sure you've said it already, Jamato, but what color are yours? Is there a thread of just pics of people's JH13s? I'd love to see how the colors actually look on them.

You rock! I was going through this thread page by page just trying to gather pics. Then someone would say something like "Hey ______, that color's awesome, what is it?" And I'd have to find that original picture, lol.

I wonder if JH changed the color names. I'm having trouble finding some of the colors that people have mentioned. Like your "ice blue" or others' "smoke" on here: JH13 Pro - $1,099.00 : JH Audio, Listen Up. when I click on view all shell colors.

I talked to Adam last week about the printer ETA and he basically said "no time soon." I would have just ordered a couple months back had I known that and gotten a carbon fiber case (which they aren't offering anymore according to Jaime).

What's an ambient vent? Lets surrounding noise in to lessen the isolation?

Aren't they supposed to have an improved carbon fiber case in the work for their flagship model? Lemme check. Ah:

Well, no, it doesn't say anything about carbon fiber here.

Not actually...think about it! What are the variables? Having to overcome the resistance/reactance of the typical drive elements, and the interactions they cause with various amplifiers.... those actions can cause fits! And the remaining sound is left up to the stability of the amp. The JH13's allow an amp to flow..just about any amp or amp section (Ipod), nice and easy as a load goes.

It will most likely be carbon fiber, unless there is something better that comes along.

Still in the works. No ETA yet, sorry.

I'll post a pic of a prototype that is feasible to produce when we have one ready.

I'm partial to adamantium, but mithril would be nice, too.
