i'm not a specialist but single or balanced sounds good to me! 

 

[gmahler2u]

[yjkimnada]

You can't expect people to have heard them all. And even then you really can't expect to actually agree to yourself considering how subjective these matters are.
 
I believe you'd be better off reading through reviews trying to find out what "strengths" the different amps have and whether or not they benefit towards the sound that you're lookin for.
 
Also JH3a is not an amp, it's a complete "system". You can't buy the JH3a for your JH16.

 

[yjkimnada]

i will make sure to read the reviews.
for the jh3a someone online is selling just the j3ha amp and the jh3a jh16 cable so it is possible

 

[Eric_C]

I thought the JH16 is tuned to the JH3a? So each pairing is unique?

 

[yjkimnada]

well (i am a noob so dont believe me) form what i read, i think they are finely tuned.
what i was thinking was that although a separpately bought jh3a is not the ultiamte match,
it still would do the job. idk. i may have it wrong.

The cable would not even fit your JH16

DAMN
YOUR RIGHT
screw***CK!!!!!!!!!!!

*******

Full fledged production.
 
here is the bad part. The JH16 will have to be reshelled. so do not expect to recoup lots of the cost.

 

[yjkimnada]

so te jh3a selling right now is the final version that is good
i dont even think they offer reshelling services now.
the only way is to buy the whole DAMN THING. for 1748 dollars.
i can hear my wallet weeping already

 

[yjkimnada]

btw. what are your (i mean all of you plural) thoughts on the new um pp6. (upcoming jh3a rival)?
although it does seem interesting, i do not like the um iems themselves because when i will be listening to just the iems out doors (about half of my headphone usage is outdoors)
i heard they fairly neutral and not bass heavy. which i hate

Right now it is vaporware until it is out. so no conclusion or ANYTHING can be assertained. Once they are out. THEN comments can be made.
