And that's really what matters my friend. Glad to know you're enjoying the JH16's to no end! In my case, I can quite honestly say the same for more than one universal I own. Were it not for these unsettling ears that wish to hear any and all universals that are held in high merit, I'd more than likely have a set of ES5's myself, I'm sure of it. Nevertheless, I too am enjoying quite a few universals to no end, and am not at all compelled to upgrade to customs anytime soon. It certainly hasn't been a long time for me just yet. In a sense, my ears wish to fully saturate all the enjoyment they can get out of the high-end universals, and I've quite a ways to go.
If a mid tier set is what works for you then great! I wish I was like that. I told myself that I was stark raving nuts for even thinking about the JH16. For a long time I tried to be happy with what I had.
But in the end, I found I was MUCH happier with the upgrade, and that it was worth the (huge) expense. I enjoy music so much more now, and more often than I used to. It's been one of the best purchases I have made in terms of enjoyment/dollars spent. (surprisingly - being a cynic, I was more than half expecting to find out that I had been suckered, and if so, intended to expose all the audio snobs who praise these phones - thankfully I found I was very wrong, and am very happy
