Sorry - no freaking-out intended at all, and you're absolutely right - text is so inadequate as a means of conversation...
 
 
 
2014 looks to be shaping-up to be a really great year for those of us Head-fiers who do the majority of their listening whilst walking or traveling on public transport.
 
Some great DAPs on the horizon (X5, NW-ZX1, Calyx, etc.) and now some great CIEMs pushing the technical boundaries (JH Roxanne, Noble K10, etc.)
 
Happy times ahead, I hope...

 

 
AND I WANT THEM ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!

  JH has informed me that they're bumping up my order and will hopefully get one by Late November

What is your preorder number?  Thanks

Well, that makes 2 of us, then!! (seriously!)
 
I wonder who's going to have deep enough pockets to buy both the Noble Kaiser 10 and the Roxanne, to 'take one for the team' and give the rest of us mere mortals a decent comparison review between the two models.

I called a JH authorized dealer and he didn't know when he was going to get the universal Roxanne. He suggested (that at that price) I could get the JH13 instead. I said thank you, I'll sign up to receive an email notification online. I was thinking that this guy is behind the times. The JH13 was "king of the hill" last week. This hobby is turning over as fast as cellphones these days. We are going to have to sign up for some kind of upgrade program and pay by the month.

They have very different sound sigs . The keister 10 is close to the heir 8a. That I have . Where the Roxanne,s are more like the jh16. But more detailed . The heir is great for extended listening or bad recordings , not bad but not so good... More laid back mids and treble. . But noble has silicon. Now that is great sound isolation so the 5s or 4 will be in my future ...

I believe so as well my impressions should have arrived at Noble late last week, and I went for a rush so soon?

Hi, I'm not really sure, I just contacted JH the moment I heard about the Roxanne (which means CanJam) and they signed me up.

I see, when I ordered the Roxanne.  JHaudio told me that I'm Preorder #4.  So I don't know....

Hey guys,
 
I'm thinking about getting these if included in a Black Friday sale... so question on that - is it alright if I purchase without having taken impressions first?  
 
Also is there any update on their partnership w/ that company that does ear scanning instead of impressions?  I was sorta hoping for that development to come around before getting into kilobuck customs, but these have me curious.

I want the noble kaiser , but I do not like the heir 8a. . It's crystal clear and good controlled bass . Enough to vib your ears. But with my ears it lacks the luster and analytical In your face sound I like most of the time . And. I am not sure how neutral they are . As I am not saying they are not , and I did read one review saying they are. But having the 8a it just scares me till I am sure.

I was told the Roxanne's were indeed included in "the shopping day from hell'.
