In honor of the thread I switched from K10's to Angies - (iMac > clas-db > ALO RxMk3-B+ > Angie) .....

 too much fun....
 
I like the idea of a metal shell - but I really like the look of the red/black weave.....
 

 
Something about a hand-made body.

Really?  I always like the K10 better.  Personal taste I guess.

I like them both - doesn't have to be either/or. They are different signatures. Viva l'difference.

Very true, and I am glad that your pair seems to be quality, unlike some of the other ones I have seen posted here.

Why not custom though?

the copper looks really good.  very nice color.  if it does sound like the JH13FP, i expect it to do very well.  from what i read, it is still beloved by a lot of people.
 
2799 for a universal layla still makes me laugh.  grotesquely overpriced.

It seems like the AK and JH money machine is on fire. Buy anything from them and there is a strong chance it will lose 50% of resale value within 3 months. These products look cool indeed, but I do wish they had their clients' interest in mind a bit more. Seems like a lot to ask these days. Well I I'll audition them when I can anyways...

  it doesn't matter how much JH  or AK or any one out there ask or want for their products, they KNOW someone will pay for it.

Still a victim... but I think I am getting slightly better.

can i ask so for a basshead would rosie be a good choice, i lean towards bass, warm, layered sound sig with no harsh highs or shouty mids
i have the shure 846 and z5, i like the z5 better but the shure 846 does bass better
 
wonder how those will compare to shure kse2500 which i guess is a top choice

As I've always said, any one buying new high-end kit that expects it to keep its value is a bit misguided.
