Quote: You don't want to use the Fisher cables.  They're pretty low quality.

Quote: Too funny.  JH16, FTW.

Having owned both the e-Q7 and GR8, I prefer the GR8 because of the better mids.  I get similar bass response between the two but I also use higher density silicone tips.

Quote: Still very good and isolate much better than anything from JH or UE.

still nothing.....

Remember to read "reviews" by people getting the equipment for free with a large grain of salt.  Reviews from people without a vested financial interest are far more revealing:  http://www.head-fi.org/forum/thread/490698/hifiman-hm-801-rmaa-tests/375

Quote: Agreed.  Airplanes are the same way for me.  I also used to have ER-4Ps which isolated very well.  I currently use GR8s on flights and for sleeping since they're very small and isolate well with deep insertion.

Quote: Another JH16 fan.  Thanks for the comparison. 

Quote: That sums it up nicely.  Thank you for your detailed analysis and opinions.

Why not get your 5EBs remolded by UM into 3-driver customs? They add a midrange driver to bring them more to the front.

I really want to try the Studio-I but I keep reading reviews like these: MP4 Nation Forums • View topic - HiSoundAudio Studio Disection and impressions Will Whiplash be offering a money-back guarantee period?

Every single review seems to favor the JH16 over the JH13. I think that we have a winner.

Why would you listen to anyone who recommends Westone 3s or Hippo VBs? Both of those have some serious flaws.

If anyone is having trouble with the SE530 vs e-Q7, I'd suggest trying the GR8s. They're like SE530s on steroids. Tighter bass with a little more slam, same midrange and treble that's laid back but not terribly rolled-off like the SE530. They are also nearly as small as the CK10 and very easy to...

Stay away from Fidelity and Livewires. Both are known for their poor customer service and have lots of negative feedback here and with the BBB. I'd go with the JH5 at that price.

Great review. JH16, ftw.

Bright + isolation = Etymotic
