    The JH16 Pro Impressions Thread

    Yikes!!! I just looked at my shells and they're full of hair line cracks right around the tips. I don't mistreat my monitors and I never bang them around =[. I have no idea what could have caused this. Functionally they're fine and they still feel solid. I'm just wondering this is average or do...

    The JH16 Pro Impressions Thread

    I found at first that the bass was overwhelming, but after 100 hours playing and letting your ears adjust they sound pretty neutral to me.   Quote:

    The JH16 Pro Impressions Thread

    I have had the same experience as you girls. My jh16's are only just starting to sing. I was really unimpressed the first time I put them in my ears. They sounded warm and muddled, felt like I got ripped off. But now, now they're pure audio bliss. I'd also like to say that my case had my last...

    Would cables actually make my headphones sound better/different?

    Quote: As I stated before, the difference is minimal and if you didn't intimately know how your rig sounds before you'll never know the difference. The only reason I could hear a difference with my guitar cable is because it's a long run of cable and I was able to ABX test the cable...

    Whats so bad about Studio Beats by Dr. Dre?

    Quote: I think it's more a case of that's the way people have come to expect the music to sound, the "Everyone is doing it this way so it must be the right way" metality. It's also very possible that the music is starting to be produced in this way with muddy mids and sloppy lows since...

    Does anyone else find their cables nearly impossible remove? They're in there so tight I can't believe they aren't glued in. I know I'm going to get an upgraded cable for them and will eventually have to swap out cables. But I don't want to break a pin off in the shell.

    Would cables actually make my headphones sound better/different?

    Thanks for posting those articles JCX. The "science or snake oil" one was really well written with a very neutral scientific view. I guess my semester and a half of electronics engineering helped me out for once hahaha. I wish I still had access to the equipment back at school, I'd love to test...

    JH 16 VS JH 13 HELP~~

    I've noticed myself listening at lower volumes but to get them really working I have to turn them up to what my normal level is. Female vocals tend to suffer the most from this. I can't agree more that the sound is right there in your head. It's a very close sound stage but you can place...

    Shure SE846: A New In-Ear Flagship From Shure. Finally! (Impressions p26-28)

    Not sure if this has been asked yet or talked about, but since the low pass filter is esentially a long tube won't the low end frequency be extremely out of phase? I was looking at two pictures of JH16's one freqphase and an original one. It looks like in order to bring the frequencies into...

    JH 16 VS JH 13 HELP~~

    Quote: I almost feel like the 16's are neutral to my ears and they just have an amazing handle on low frequency. The bass is there,  but it's not in your face and booming, it's like a strong foundation to hold up the music. I'm a drummer and I have to say that the JH16's have changed how I...
