To me the Sharona is superior in just about every way. The Roxanne is an older design, it’s been out for a bit… the Sharona sounds like a much more modern iem. It’s has vastly better extension in both directions. The Roxanne rolls off a bit in the sub bass, the Sharona digs down very deep into the sub bass with no roll off. It also has otherworldly treble extension with that new super tweeter. I’ve not heard treble extension like this in any transducer before. You catch all sorts of upper frequency stuff you haven’t heard before. It also sounds much more natural and they have all but neutralized that “BA timbre” sound… the Roxanne sounds like BA’s … the Sharona does not. I feel like if you put the Sharona in my ears and I had no clue what it was, and then you told me it was all dynamic drivers… I think I’d believe you. Just from the natural sound it produces and the bass rumble you get with it. It’s just more modern. There has been an insane amount of moving the needle as far as driver and iem tech is concerned over the last 5 years, 10 years. And they’ve done the R&D here and taken advantage of the progress that’s been made. There’s also a lot more detail retrieval in the Sharona, it’s cleaner, more detailed and just sounds bigger as well. It feels like the razors edge of what’s possible with BA’s today, where as the Roxanne felt like that when it came out 5 years ago or so. How old is the Rox at this point? But here’s the deal, I still LOVE the Roxanne. I think I like the overall “tuning” of the Roxanne more than any other iem or headphone I’ve heard to date. For the music I listen to, which is primarily rock and metal… it’s the best tuning and frequency response I’ve encountered. It’s just fantastic for that music. And even though I have the Jolene and the Sharona, there are absolutely times when I put the Roxanne in my ears and feel like it’s still my favorite. It’s so freakin good with heavy music. There’s just something special about the frequency response / tuning. It works absolute wonders with big distorted guitars. It’s also much more forgiving of poorly recorded music, and being that I listen to a lot of metal… that’s pretty commonplace in my library. So as much as the Sharona is a technically superior iem, I still absolutely adore the Roxanne. I still listen to it all the time and I would never sell it. It’s just got some very special magic with the music I listen to. But if you’re looking at buying one or the other, I think the Sharona is the obvious choice with a much smaller chance that you wouldn’t like it. How do you like the Contour? I’d love to hear it at some point. I’ve considered picking it up.
