I posted a separate thread for this question but should have just asked here...I just got my JH16's this weekend, I love them but notice a annoying suction/loud popping sound on my right ear.  The sound does not really degrade but it's pretty common when I am moving and distracting.  I notice...

shazbot!

My fit is pretty good where I don't have any discomfort and the sound quality is great...however I notice that I get a distracting pop sound in both ears, more on my right ear whenever I move around or look up.  I noticed more ambient sound comes in when this happens so I figure the seal is...

Thanks for the impressions, glad I found it after sorting through all the whining and moaning.  Unfortunately my comment only adds to the uselessness.

I updated the title, they are sending me an overnight replacement and asked me to send back my original pair.  So my faith in them is fully restored, had these for 2 years too, so they will keep me as a customer in the future.   Glad that my faith in small businesses is still in good standing.

yeah I guess it's worth a shot, I'll see what they say...granted this issue is fairly minor and I really have to crank it for it to happen, asides from that I love the IEM.

oops, why did i start a new thread, meant to reply another, son of a bitch! ...about Westone customer service, anyone ever have any issues with them?  I have had some issues with my right earpiece of my Um3x and noticed a static-y tearing sound when at high volumes.  I sent in a detailed...

Looks like a bunch of knock off crap on that site.

Does it play AAC files?  Seems like a popular format to ignore.

thanks alot CCfoodog, i was going to offer this guy to fix it for 100 bucks, haha

is this player still severely over priced?

the s9 might go down in price with the new J3 coming out...or the sflo:2 but the sflo sounds like it has a terrible interface and is buggy as hell, battery life on it sucks too

We can talk about Megan Fox if you'd like, shes pretty hot, but cant act her way out of a paper bag...but i dont care, haha

I am sure he is talking about comparable price, since the hifiman is as expensive as a nice laptop.

most likely has an SD slot though

yeah it will have expansion, but what i noticed is it looks like they got rid of the physical buttons, which is a deal breaker for me.

I wonder how much cheaper the S9 will be now that its successor the J3 was announced today.

was going to order one but realized it was utterly useless

I agree with the um3x, dont even feel them in my ear, most comfy universal ive had...oh and they sound awesome too

Damn, 400 for the UM3x? I got mine for about 150 less, what about the S9? I see the X comments, but I think 300 bucks for 16 gig player is a bit bloated, can get a 32 gig s9 for $259. Cowon also seems to support their community, Sony seems like a headless corporation, except for the PS3 which...

im in the same boat, dont you love the fit on the um3x, blows away anything ive ever had before, no desire for customs now....im thinking ill get a Cowon S9, but am waiting to see what might be coming out, its about that time for all the new stuff to hit.

Its March now, guess the window for the release has passed, the player wont be released now, haha.

does anyone here have the Cowon s9 and the x1000, I havent really seen any real write ups from owners of both units. I have UM3X and am looking to upgrade, I was waiting for this Cowon J3 but there is no real info out there so I might go ahead with the S9. I have heard all about the Sony and am...

check out the westones, i always...always had issues with all my iems, including the er6i's falling out on my runs, now i never have to mess with them with the um3x, worth the price alone not having to deal with them falling out...that and they sound kick ass.
