I dont trust the magnetic lock on the carbon case for my JH13 to go portable, so this case only stays home for me. But the Otterbox is wonderful for that, but it dosen´t fit an amp or source as the carbon case. Yeah im happy with my color choice for my JH13, going clear with my JH16

That confirms it for me then, i will keep the carbon snug at home ; )
As long as the otter box protects the little gems then that will be okay, dap and potential amp can have it's own separate case.

Are you intrigued then what your 16's will sound like in comparison to your 13's when you get them?
At least you already have a pair of pros, i am still waiting to get my first pair! lol

Will be demoing the 13 & 16's when i go for my impression sitting soon end of April.

That's what I am planning on using. Although it'll be a constant reminder of my lost/stolen ES2's...

Thanks for the bass demo track suggestion Edit: i think that ruiner actually has a better bassline test than even closer, the whole album is pretty stellar though.

Your very welcome and thanks for letting me now how amazing it sounds on your JH13's. The Ruiner definitely has an phenomenal bassline, but I still think Closer is much more difficult to get just right. The album in general is a great test for a high quality reproduction system.

Another favorite song I use to measure the quality of a system's low-end performance is Radiohead's Like Spinning Plates, one of my favorite songs. Try it out if you get a chance.

Wasn't there a thread on recommended music for the JH13's?

So the small otterbox can't fit anything but the IEM's. What about the large otterbox? Is that similar in size to the carbon fiber box? I like the idea of putting my entire portable rig in one hard case.

If only the blu Ray had a PCM 2.0 track available...I bet the bass would be mixed hotter since it's a movie and a live show too

They received my impressions on Friday too. I guess the race is on to see who gets their JH16's first. lol

I hope our wait isn't that long

I ordered mine Wednesday I think it was. They've had my impressions since January though. Long story.

What colors did you guys get? I'm still undecided, as they can't do what I really really really would like

What is it you are wanting to do with yours?

I decided on white shells with black faceplate with artwork.

I'm still debating between 3 different shell/face combos. I'll post as soon as I pick the winner. Picking a color combo is a lot harder than I thought it was going to be!! lol

 

[Jajo]

grawk, very nice. I love that color. Might have to go with that myself. How are your cables holding up oxidation-wise?

Well I wanted to make mine transparent black, but I'm not a fan of the smokey look. I wanted a very dark transparent where the shells would be almost black, but they no longer offer it.

So I'm trying to think of something that will keep me happy.

 

[dallan]

Grawk those are beautiful, that is the color I was looking at only transparent, i love it. Congratulations!
Can't wait until I am ready to order too. Went thru a lot of purchases on the hobby in the last year and a half so I have been waiting and counting duckets for the last two months, hopefully order soon, I have already had to cancel the impression appt once cause too short.

 

[WindyCityCy]

I ordered 1 red eye red translucent and the other black eye blue translucent ... both with solid deadwood faceplates and custom art. Will definitely post pics when they're done.
