I've been out of this game too long. My initial decision was between the ES5 and the JH16's... Now with this Heir audio popping up and the impressive reviews I've been seeing it's now a 3 way battle.
I wish I could criticize but I'm in a similar quagmire. Honestly, I'm sorry to all the people that I have badgered because it's difficult to make up your mind. In the end it depends on the sound signature you want, but then there are these nuances that beginning head-fiers can't grasp. Not everyone has the luxury to test out customs or even their demo units.

The life of a head-fier. Don't be sorry, audiophiles want the best for their ears and being unable to try customs you have no choice but to resort to reviews.
I have had the luxury of trying both the JH13's and JH16's when I was at Jaben in Singapore, but that was two years ago when the ES5 and 8A didn't exist.
