Bump for more

Quote: usual way of remedying that is to thicken the stem? applying lacquer?

Quote: now im confused lol

so am i right to say if a custom doesnt isolate as well as olives/complys means its a bad fit?

anyone tried pairing this with high end custom iems like jh 16 pros, es5s, 1986 quads, heir 8As? Was wondering if it boosts these already high end iems up to a different level or you'll need a better amp like picos/RSAs to do it properly?

Quote: ahh i see, good to know. huge sense of relief. thanks a lot :)

does it isolate well? can you hear ambient noises in your surroundings?

bump

Am deciding on getting a portable amp, would a pico slim be more worth it then the e17? I know that both are in a totally different price range, am just hoping for insights if the extra amount of cash is worth it for the difference in SQ.

have tried the audio test on both my w4 and jh13s... both sounds the same..   i guess the customs just doesn't give as much isolation as i would like too.. And seal doesn't break when i walk around

Hi, i recently got a custom IEM, JH13s. I came from a Westone 4 and being new to custom iems, i'm not sure about the fit, seal and isolation my jh13s provide.   I used my westone 4 with olives, so usually i can barely hear ambient noises and people talking around me, even without music...
