The attenuator is roughly 100 ohm....
If you like your bass level @ 12 o'clock, a 50ohm resistor could be installed within each monitor.

Adjustability would be lost, but it should make reshelling easier.

Ok i got you, you mean fixed the bass like the conventional iems.

Finally I've got my Roxannes (acrylic). I can confirm odd plastic smell of the cable, but in my case it is not that annoying, at least not yet - it is barely noticeable when wearing them - it may get more annoying if it will persist. They are actually smaller than I expected, judging by the size of demo universals.
 
I'm not 100% sure about the fit yet - right is perfect, left causes some noticeable pressure, but this seems to fade away after few minutes with them in ears, so I suppose no need for refit. Seal is good. It is easy to put them in and much harder to remove, these are my first customs so I suppose this is normal.
 
I opted for translucent wine color expecting dark red wine, in reality it is much lighter. Case is nice and robust, but it will be quickly replaced with much lighter Pelican.
 
It is too early to say something meaningful about SQ, but first impression is that straight out of the box they sounds darker than demo unis.

Hearing lots of people stating Roxannes being dark, have you guys thought about looking for bright sources to balance it out?  I guess EQ could do that same.

JH Roxanne best set Up :

Note :
JH Roxanne is source revealing , if Your source does not Synergy
SQ is Good Only , if you Find The Synergy Woow pair With JH Roxanne
SQ excellent .
I like bright and detail but not Harsh , The best bass position is at 9 O clock = 0,00 dB and Max at 10 O clock
If to much bass JH Roxanne SQ is Warm .

IMO

I don't claim they are dark, but that out-of-the-box they are darker than Roxannes Universals Demo units I was trying, not dark on its own. Anyway, I'm not going to write more about how they sound until I have a good mileage with them

What is your bass set at? 
 
They usually have it turned all the way up when they ship them out.

I dialed it down to 0 and then slowly dialed it up. I stopped at 1:30 now - any more than that and mid bass gets overwhelming, may go lower than that later. I don't find the bass levels to influence mids to high ratio, at least not up to my current setting.

It is kind of odd that no matter how low the bass is dialed, it still has a "bassy" and somewhat dark presentation.

Hmm, I have mine on 12'o clock dialed... Listened about 15-20 hours in total.
First impressions are that they are very dependable of the source how they behave...
I have tried them with the X5, AK240 (not long enough) and IOS devices and I must say that the X5 and AK240 sound excellent and not that dark at all, IMO.
 
I am expecting to receive my AK240 this or next week, I am going to give it some extensive listening to come back with better impressions

Finally my CF Roxanne's have arrived, I waited for nearly 7mths, and the wait was worth it.
A big thank you goes out to John @ NS Audiology, Sydney. They did a great job with my impressions, proved to be a well sealed fit. They maintained Roxanne was worth waiting for and I must say he was spot on. These are my first CIEM,s and what a great listening experience. I spent 24hrs on a flight getting to know Roxanne and got to hear my favourite music like I have never heard before. Remarkable. Paired nicely with AK120.
Roxanne's finish was perfect, the cables arrived all in one piece, nuts included! The case is close to perfect. Thank you JHA for producing a work of art.

The wait might be long and frustrating, but the eventual reward is worth it! Congratulations!

Good to hear it pairs well with X5, I assume you used it straight out of headphone out? I strongly consider it as a more compact and I hope better sounding alternative to my iPod Classic+LittleDotMkI+ combo. I didn't decided yet, if I should replace my LittleDot with a better amp or get X5. I lean towards X5 for better compactness.
