Not sure who any of these people are though?

Ok, I say it every few pages but these things are a m a z i n g . I am again listening to the Dead Set with the Grateful Dead. The drums have such honest and total impact and the spatial resolution is just toooo much. I have to do other things than listen to music!!!!

Not sure why you'd want to do that?

Not much of a Dead fan myself, but maybe l'll check that recording out!

Oh, you mean those people in the high-end forum? They don't count.

Just kidding, I stand corrected. or pwned, rather.

Sorry to get OT.

Ray Samuels turned me on to Bella Sonus - Enamoured:
(and I thank him almost daily - 2 years later)

great neuvo flamenco guitar (Angel Suarez) + keyboards / percussion (Robert Smith)

great music - well engineered - lots of sub bass - lots of sparkle in upper registers.

It's a great "test vector" for a portable signal train, with JH13's at the end of the line.

You might want to check it out.

I compared them at the meet last weekend, and except for the Orpheus's better/larger soundstage (RSA A-10 amp) I prefer the precision instrument placement of the JH13pro (P-51 Mustang) and the more detailed bass.

The HE60 are better at detail than the Orpheus as well, but they don't have as much bass impact as the Orpheus, while the JH13Pro have just the right quantity and quality of bass.

That is some assertion to make hpa! If the jh-13's go up against a orpheus that well then money very well spent imo.

Nothing surprising really. The Orpheus has already been subjectively compared not so very favorably against some other electrostats by many. At some point HPA, himself, said he listened to his es3x more often than all of his full-size cans (including electrostats) combined.

I definitely will. Thanks for the tip.

Absolutely agree with this statement 100%! And not only is it the right quantity and quality, but because the instrument separation and detail is so amazing, the bass does not overshadow the low mids whatsoever.

isn't it robert hunter, rather than robert smith who is from the cure. anyway, Jerry Harvey updated my situation - probably doing my artwork this week!

Trying to compare a great stat like the Big O to a great IEM like the 13's, is like comparing a Lamborghini Countach to a Roll's Silver Shadow.

Both are top in their class but not comparable. They serve different purposes and use different means to do so.

Yep, or like comparing either to great speakers.
