I had a pretty good experience with JH audio (JH-13).    I ordered during the thanksgiving sale. With the holidays, the projected shipping date was mid-January. However, my first two impressions were no good (this is despite going to the audiologist they recommended on their website). I...

I have had the JH13 for 3 days now. These are my first customs, so I am still getting used to them.    On my right ear, I have this feeling of discomfort in the canal area and anti-tragus (as mentioned on the Jhaudio website). I can still listen to the JH13 for an hour before I cannot tolerate...

Pain of Salvation - 12:5

Another Indian here from Mumbai, currently studying in Chicago. Would love to meet some audiophiles on my not so frequent visits back.

Tool - Aenima (the song) Sepultura - Roots

Mostly albums, very rarely just songs. Never shuffle.

Up the Downstair (including Staircase Infinities) with Signify a close second. Although I am a recent fan, I prefer the earlier PT phase, upto Lightbulb Sun. Its really shocking to see Signify get no votes. I think its a brilliant album with a lot of variety. Also, no Voyage 34 in the...

London Boys - 12 Commandments of Dance My first piece of music ever.

Tool - Parabol, as an intro to Parabola Dream Theater - Blind Faith Pink Floyd - Time Pink Floyd - Another Brick in the Wall Pink Floyd - Have a Cigar Isis - In Fiction Mouth of the Architect - Hate and Heartache Metallica - Master of puppets Metallica - Orion Porcupine Tree -...

I use mine with mostly rock and metal, and coming from a Grado, I think they work just fine with metal.

Tool - Schism Almost everyone I know has heard of Tool because of that song. There are a lot of other songs from Lateralus and other albums that I like much more.

Tool x3 (including Lollapalooza) Porcupine Tree Roger Waters Metallica Liquid Tension Experiment Dream Theater Opeth

Pink Floyd - Have a Cigar Every single time!

Going to see PT in Chicago today. Any head-fiers going?

28, doing Phd in Bioengineering. Doing research to cure blindness.

The RS2 never gets enough attention on Head-fi. In fact I have read comments where the RS2s have been claimed to be the weak link in the Grado line-up. A lot of Grado newbies, who ask about the RS2 have been asked to skip over and go directly to the RS1. I cant comment on that because I have...
