I don't know why anyone would attempt to compare products without trying them.

Got my impressions re-done at North Shore Audiology in Sydney today (for free I might add as they didn't get the first ones right)
The right one was perfect, but the left one needed to be re-done again a 3rd time, but they're spot on now, so I'll be posting them to Noble on Monday.
NS Audiology have universal demo's of the Roxanne, JH16Pro, JH13Pro and JH10Pro's. So while I was there I had a short demo of the Roxanne's and JH13Pro's using my HTC One Mini/Poweramp/Flac as a source. Was the first time I've heard anything worth over $500.
I had fit and isolation issues with both, purely because they didn't have tips that fit my ears, but I have to agree with most of the comments about them. Roxanne's were a fair bit darker to me. The bass pots were a nice feature though. I definitely preferred the JH13Pro's though. Despite not having a great fit with the (non-JH) tips, they were very clear and neutral to my (novice) ears.
Completely reinforced my decision to go with the K10's if everyone's comments on the SQ and sound sig are to be believed (which I do
)
Once my K10's arrive I'll go back and re-demo them with better source gear and a selection of tips to compare with the K10's.

Am I the only one who prefers JH5 over their top of the line products
Jerry gave me quite a face when I told him that JH5 sounds better than JH16 when he visited Singapore for Mook Festival. Anw, Noble received my impression yesterday, hopefully my K10 will arrive soon!
Just received my 8c's! Yay!
Finally someone....
Be sure to read my review, when you have time. I'd be interested in your opinion compared to mine.
Cheers
Ps: we demand pictures

Nice one! Be sure to give us some detailed impressions! How long did it take from the time they received your impressions till they were sent out to you?

Yes, detailed impression please. No pressure
Skip the impression on the 8c's, we want a detailed write up on the free Noble Tee Shirt!!

If he's just received his CIEMS now then the promotion wasn't running when he purchased them.
funny enough one passed through my hands yesterday but Postman-Pat snatched it off of me... I never had the time to listen to it (the rustle of the packaging was up there with the very best, but don't read to much into that), it was here, then gone, it was that quick, ho-hum maybe next time...

The build quality is perfect. I'm still currently listening to it so I'll write a review about it a while later. My first impressions of these are just... I cant find a suitable word for it as of now
Very nice Sir!! Enjoy
