I'm wondering what are the color options or is it just clear that is the only option that is available for JH5Pro?

Is there a review about the live use of the JH5Pro as compared to the ES2? As in purely live setting...

I had a question for current owners.
The JH5s are $400, whereas Livewire duel drivers are $250
They both have duel drivers with crossover.
Except, Livewires have colors, and rotating replaceable wires, which the JH5s don't.
What i want to know, is Is the difference In sound quality really $150?
Where i'm standing, the livewires look to be a better value for the tech, and are loved for the sound. But this is the only thread for the jh5s i've seen.
It makes me wonder, what sets them apart. What really makes me nervous, is that these are at the bottom of JH's lineup, which leads me to believe that they can't possibly be any better than universal IEMs- in even half the price range of the JH 5s
So far, i have read multiple times, that "Jerry knows what he is doing", but are the JH5s so good that they're still preferable, even when a pair of triple driver livewires can be had for $25 less?

For the artwork, you have to pay extra, right? Something like $50? I'm just thinking about the "no extra cost" options that are available.

Yes, I think it's $50 depending on what you want.

The JH5's are brand new, and nobody here has them yet. So that's going to be a hard one to answer.
The part above I would bet against though. The JH5's, IMO, are going to be better than any universal. Customs give you better isolation, better soundstage, and bone conduction. Universals, even with custom tips, have a big disadvantage. Also, the JH5's are using the latest generation of drivers, which haven't made it into universals yet. Because of those factors, I'll bet that when the reviews come back (in this thread), that the JH5's will be much better than universals.
