it does but would sound different to you since you are coming from jh13.. maybe your jh13 does have more spark.. the highs on these are laidback

Can you go to audio stores and have a demo of both? Singapore has brick and mortar headphone stores, don't they?

jh13 yes fit ear 334 only. I would like to demo the others before I make a decision and one thing I know here is that the shop that sells fit ear here makes a huge profit.

A better version of the es5?

 

[soullinker20]

sorry I don't have es5 so i can't really answer your question.. but from fwir, others seem to prefer the highs of w4 including me, because they are on level with the mids not laidback.. es5's vocals they say has a sweet upper mids.. but if you compare the 334's bass and es5's ...
 
the bass of 334 sounds like a dynamic driver that extends really low ..

if you're considering another custom check the fitear MH335...
 
aside from tg334 consider the tralucent 1plus2 hybrid too..

Based on my experience auditioning TG334 and some customs' demo unit, I wouldn't say that TG334 is a GREAT step up from high-end customs. To me, TG334 is one of few universals that could be considered as on par with high end customs. Yes, TG334's bass is the very best I've heard from a BA unit, and its soundstage is a revelation for me, but I encountered some comfort and isolation issues which is why I decided not to buy it. Hence why I'd suggest you to try TG334 first before deciding, but even then I doubt that it's a great step up from high-end customs SQ-wise. On par yes, but not great step up.

^ yep so right
 
just take a look at joker's tg334 and UM Miracle comparison as an example..

Ime the fitear are far more comfortable than customs.

I'm not so sure I agree about the bass sounding like dynamic drivers lol. Sounded quite different for me at least. Much more compacted/thick and congested. Still very nice but very different from any dynamic driver bass I've heard. I am really interested in comparing them to my Heir 8As and seeing how they stack up against each other .

Sigh its so hard to decide on a fit ear product especially since one can only demo the 334 model. Really interested in their c435 though.

Then there's the 335dw which has an extra woofer, but i dont want anything bass heavy. This is probably the hardest decision of my life
