    I sent them back to the shop for a refitting, and now they fit great. Only on the biggest of grins do they unseal, but meh, I can definitely live with that.   Probably the only thing I can think annoying isn't really the headphone's fault, well one of them is kind of the result of the...

    Quote: Haha, yep! Actually, from what I see and hear, it seems like yoyos are growing back into popularity. If you go down several pages on my flickr (www.flickr.com/swilly) you can see several of the throws I used to own.   @Justyourboy: I think you should get them refit. Mine sound...

    Sounds good, pretty much what I'm doing now.   It's always a problem with new "toys". They're pristine, and you baby them until that first scratch, or w/e. Then it's like, woo! free game! And you don't worry as much about future dings or whatnot.  Though this might just apply to yo-yos...

    On the jhaudio manual for taking care of our headphones, it says to wipe it down with an antiseptic wipe?   What kind do you guys use? Or do you guys wipe them down with an antiseptic wipe at all?   thanks   Swilly

    What about them causes them to hiss? Is the internal amp too weak, and causing this issue?   And also to answer your question further Riceball, Gregor and Solid Snake3 have mentioned a bit earlier in this thread that the JH5's sound fantastic amped or unamped.   Edit: Holy crud, I had no...

    Out of my Sony's they sound fantastic, though with a fair amount of hissing. I'm not actually sure why, (the phones being easy to drive + something about my mp3 player's power? Someone clear this up for me too!)   Oh, and thanks to these, I've found just how bad my computer sounds as a...

    @Riceball: sometimes when I talk, the left side loses the seal :( So yea, I don't have to open my mouth that much for the left side to lose the seal. But when I do leave my mouth like it normally is when I close it, things seem fine, probably a hair loose on the left side still. It's at the...

    So! I got them, and yes they sound good (sorry for just scraping over this, but there's an issue I must address).   When I open my mouth wide open, the left side loses its seal, but the right side retains it. However, when I sit there with my mouth relaxed normal-like, everything is fine. I...

    Quote: Well, I feel like trying to accurately describe the problem would be really difficult, as there could be many elements of it that need changing. I feel like another remold, (maybe also include what the problems are) would be the best, because when you get the remold, you might be...

    Oh boy.   Well, hoping that the fit turns out right. The audiologist I went to will do a free refit, but the problem for me is that I won't really be around in town to do that. My college's winter break is soon, and I'll be going back to the Chicago area (audiologist is in Des Moines)...

    JHAudio received my earmolds on the 29th and they shipped out on the 3rd.   UPS must hate me or something. just got an update "Incorrect routing at UPS facility"...   -Swilly

    JHAudio initially sent them to my billing address, but after contacting Jaime, she took care of that issue for me, and they're on their way to the shipping address. If I'm lucky, I'll get them Thursday or so.   The wait really is a killer. I just woke up right now from a dream that involved...

    Man... I ordered on the 17th, couldn't get an audiologist appointment until much later, and now, on the 29th, they just received the molds. They actually got there Friday, but JHAudio was closed Friday too.... curse the holidays and attending a college in the middle of nowhere, haha.   Sure...

    Nice, I like the flip a lot.   Deadwood is still a nice color. That's what I'm getting myself... And in terms of custom art, some of my friends were saying I get this on it..haha.  If anyone on these forums plays HoN (Heroes of Newerth), you'll get it.       -Swilly

    RE0, S4 or CX 500-B

    Quote: Haha, in my opinion, the RE0 won't give you an extra boost while pumping iron. The bass is too lean, and I think they sound thin. Soundstage isn't that great, and it just gave me a feeling of being closed in. But that's just me not liking the sterile/clinical sound of ety's and the...

    RE0's - am I missing something?

    Same feelings as the OP. I got them due to the 'sale' that they had (now its the permanent price), and it was almost at the point where I was trying to force myself to like them based on reviews I've read. I know now to avoid analytical headphones, like Ety. Also, there was crackling whenever I...

    So I went in and got them done today. The person who did it was telling me about how the tipsheet had several things that weren't all THAT important, like having a foam dam would be fine (instead of a cotton dam). Or that I didn't actually need a dental dam, and all I needed to do after it was...

    Haha, glad I could help. I don't actually have enough experience with a lot of audio equipment (No meet-ups and such, nor do I have a deep enough pocket to experience with a bunch of stuff -- this happened with yo-yos too...), so my form of help comes in other ways.. haha   So, I managed to...

    Well, did you ask for deadwood? The shade of the earpieces seem to have a very rich dark brown color to it. Maybe actual black will match/match closer.

    Woohoo, made an appointment to see an audiologist this coming Monday. Originally, if I wanted to stay near college, I'd have to wait until mid december.... YUCK. Luckily a friend's letting me borrow his car so I can go to the bigger city to get them done, where their chance of having more...

    I think those look pretty sweet man. Though, a nitpicky thing, what would be even better if the two tones of the black were matched. Like, if they made the silicon material or whatever it is darker, or made the black background of your artwork lighter. Maybe it's not possible, but that's my...

    Quote: Recently I've been thinking the same thing. I actually hadn't looked at the price of it ($249?) until just recently, and I had no idea that the Cowon J3 cost that much more (esp if I decided to get a 32 GB card to go with it). I just don't like itunes, and I very much prefer drag and...
