    New JH Audio flagship! "Siren Series Roxanne"

    The number of my impression is 10095 (according to JH repairs) so that is the assumption I made.  Maybe what they really meant is customer # ?

    New JH Audio flagship! "Siren Series Roxanne"

    Yes that is the CF version.  I didn't notice that blemish until I started taking closeups for the repair.  It can't be felt in the ear but I might as well get it fixed since it's going back anyway.

    New JH Audio flagship! "Siren Series Roxanne"

    The number is the # of your impression.  If they are made from the same impression they will have the same number.

    New JH Audio flagship! "Siren Series Roxanne"

      I don't know if this will make you feel any better (hopefully not worse) but my Roxannes and JH16's are both back at JHAudio.  The Roxannes for repair (channel imbalance & a small hole appearing on the side of the right earpiece) & refit (I sent my JH16's so they can use them as a 'stare &...

    New JH Audio flagship! "Siren Series Roxanne"

      The reason the tips (just the part that goes into my ear canal) are larger on my Roxannes has nothing to do with CF or the amount of drivers.  The only thing running through that section on any CIEM that I am aware of are tubes.  JH just happened to make them larger from the same impressions...

    New JH Audio flagship! "Siren Series Roxanne"

    Since the balance on the JH16's and all of my other headphones sound fine I know it's the Roxanne's and yes I swapped the cable Left to Right and Right to left to verify.  :)

    New JH Audio flagship! "Siren Series Roxanne"

    I ordered directly from JH.  My understanding (which may be incorrect) is that you start in the que after your impressions are received and logged in.  I ordered on 12/2, with a later order # but my impressions were already in and logged in months ago on a previous order.  I'm using the term...

    New JH Audio flagship! "Siren Series Roxanne"

    Full CF Roxanne Ordered 12/2/13 (JHA already had my impressions from a previous order) Arrived 4/30/14.  The finishing on the IEM is excellent no bubbles or prints and the cable is the one with the aluminum collars.  My primary use for these is to separate my wall less man cave from the family...

    JH16Pro customs vs Roxanne universals

    Just did a test, when I open my mouth while using the JH16's with the impressions I detailed before, the seal is not broken! but I hear noise from my jaw and ears (occlusion?)going from closed to open mouth,  the sound is the same even with my mouth open. :) .

    JH16Pro customs vs Roxanne universals

    I'm not trying to muddy the waters here, just a note on my experience with custom molds for JH.  Back in May of 2012 I decided to get JH16Pro's (before Freqphase).  I was worried about the impressions that had to be made so I traveled to a JH Audio approved audiologist.  When I made the...

    Headamp Blue Hawaii Special Edition

    I own the original Blue Hawaii amp upgraded with Black Gate caps built by Justin years ago.  This amp now has 1000's of hours of use and has worked flawlessly for over 6 years.  I'm currently running it with Mullard XF2's for the last couple years and find the sound with the Omega II Mk1...

    Amp for Grado PS1000

     Originally posted by purrin: Quote:  I just did a comparison starting with the Grace.....It controls everything exactly...just like it was designed.  Every reverb decay to silence, bass is completly tight, controlled, and everything is separated precisely.  I have nothing but admiration...

    Amp for Grado PS1000

    I'll third the WA6SE/PS1000 combo.  I'm listening to that as I type this (Manu Katche - Third Round)  and it is excellent.  I also have a Grace 901 I've been trading off with and it powers the PS1000 with plenty of clean power, very good with low impedance phones........but there is something...

    Woo Audio Amp Owner Unite

    I recently aquired a Woo Audio WA6SE Maxxed with Princess (except it has regular tube sockets). The unit is 3-4 months old with approx. 200 hrs on it. Considering the Black Gates this unit is just starting on the road to being broken in. I am primarily pairing it with the Grado PS1000, it sounds...
