Well if you are used to or like the bass of jh16 then you might be disappoint in Paterre. As Paterre has less bass in quantity compare to jh16. However, if you are looking for soundstage the airyness around instrument you are in for the treat as I listen to both paterre and 334 and love both of them.
334 has a bit more bass quantity and quality than parterre. Parterre shine more on orchestra or soundtrack(game sound track not lyric type sound track) as it give a feel of treble more present with lacking of bass. If I have to choose one or the other I would choose 334 as I feel it is most versatile earphone for all genre.
As I said in my review of the Parterre if you are a classical, jazz or acoustic music lover the Parterre is for you. If you listen to studio mult-track studio recordings of rock, techno, electronic or music with heavy bass lines the 334 would be a better choice.
I have both and I much prefer the K3003 as I find them to sound more lifelike and spacious sounding than my Parterre's. They are also smaller and fit more compactly in my ears.
It is not better sound it is a different sound signature. You might prefer one over the other. The cable that comes with the Parterre gives it a warm touch in the mids and a full bass. I changed the cable to get a more balanced sound to my liking. I have heard some say that the Parterre is bass light but I think they do not understand that the Parterre fits a little differently than most iem's. It is not advisable to shove it into your ear canal. That can cause bass resonance and affect the mids. It is designed to be worn so that the tip just seals at the front of the ear canal. Using tips with deep insertion will spoil the sound and kill the soundstage effect.
