So I finally booked my impressions appointment this morning at North Shore Audiology in Sydney. They seem pretty expensive ($100) from what I have read on these forums, but they are really close to my office and I have taken convenience over price...I know some will say this is stupid, but I just want to get it done
They are resellers of JH and Westone and I just wanted to get some feedback around a mid-end ciem. The 2 options I have been tossing up are the JH7 Pro and the UM Aero. The Aero is available at a starting price of $575, whereas the JH7's are $699. What I wanted to confirm is if there such a major difference between the 2 to warrant going with the JH7's at $125 more? I do understand that there will always be personal preferences around looks and sound, but is there anything technically in play to justify the price gap?
Also, has anyone had experience with the Beat Audio Sapphire cable used with the Aero? If I do go with the Aero, I will probably look to get 1.
I am leaning towards the UM as they do have a Australian based arm, but just wanted to get some thoughts around the above.
Thanks in advance!
