Not a politician no, but a 'professional arguer' nonetheless - I'm a postdoctoral research scientist

Regardless of the fact that you are completely wrong about Ken.
I sat back and watched people speculate about whether the R10 were bad when he listened or not, and knowing that Ken and I have listened to the same thing and had the same impression, I wasn't worried because with what I know about Ken I believe they sounded good if he says they did. |
Maybe I am wrong about Ken, maybe I'm not. But as hard as it is over the internet, let me assure you that I have no vested interest one way or the other, and no preconceived notions. I have no affiliation with Jena, Ken, or APS, or Boilingfrog.
All I've done is read a long thread, do what I'm trained to do in terms of digesting and comprehending a large quantity of conflicting information, and come to a conclusion. I believe that Ken gave a glowing review to a 'broken' headphone, and that he didn't notice it because he wasn't being objective.
Don't get me wrong - if this is indeed the case, I do NOT believe that Ken did it out of any malice or deliberate misconception, and I apologise if it came across that way. I believe that it is purely a function of how people in this hobby tend to carry themselves; the massively subjective nature of sound means that we set up 'rules' in our own minds.
Ken thought the R10 should sound good, so it did sound good. It is there in his own words, plain as the light of day.

I think an apology is due to Ken. |
Until any further information comes to light, no apology will be forthcoming. Just my interpretation of the facts. I'm very sorry if you feel that this is an attack against Ken - it is very obvious that the real 'villain' of this story is JL.
