Nope, what i mean was if you put them in order  The top of yours must be Noble k10 and this is the best?  
JH13 Freqphase is much better than Pro (original ver),

Yeah.. I never heard fp version but i'm not sure they are much better than pro version.. I never liked the soundsig from jh.. Angie,roxane and layla is just too big and heavy for my ears.. Not just jh.. I didnt like all of westone umpro series,shure 846,akg 3003, asg 2.5 iem.. So i didnt put them there.. Pricey is not always better in this hobby haha

1. 1964 Adel U12 Universal (The best thing that's touched my ears)
2. UM Mentor Universal (Crystal clear; clarity and soundstage are it's strong point)
3. Noble Audio K10A Universal (Balanced...big/heavy/bulky casing...)
4. Aurisonics ASG-2 (Love this...)
5. Shure SE 846 (Sub-bass is unparalleled, fit is 2nd to the U12)
6. JH Roxanne Universal (Bulky...big soundstage, not very clear)
7. Sennheiser IE80 (Actually one of my most used, but subpar in all other aspects vs. the above)
8. Sennheiser IE8 (Same as IE80 TBH)
9. HiSound Wooduo2 (Don't even use this anymore, but comparable to the IE8 sound)

I'll try to rank  up my collection from the past until now :
Technically :
shure se1500 (very clean sound ) => heir 10 ( clean ,warm and very musical sound)>>Flare r2 pro ( accurate ) > Roxanne >shure se846 ( fun )
 Musical :
Heir 10 >shure se1500 > roxanne > shure se846 >flare r2 pro
 
I love Flare r2 pro ,it's tiny with big headstage . but my heir 10 is my favourite .

I wonder how many of these posts are just lists of how people have moved from one IEM to another. Given brain burn is so overriding, unless you still have all of the IEMs listed, how is possible to know for sure how they rank against each other?

I think you answered your question already.

This is not the "rank stuff you own" but the rank stuff you have heard thread. So it is all from very subjective memory.

You still remember how much you liked them, no? There are a lot of IEMs I didnt buy after trying them or reviewing them. But i still have an opinion of where they would slot in for me.

In the end its all just opinions and to be taken with a grain of salt. Pure fun.

Cheers.

In terms of all the IEMs I have ever heard ( from about 10$ ones to 150$), my ranking will go like this:

1) Sony XBA-H1 ( These are just phenomenal for the 75$ I payed for them. I would pay 200$ easily for them. )
2) Shure SE215 ( Best in terms of sound quality for money spent but just not that comfortable for extended listening)
3) Bowers and Wilkins C5 series 2 ( The loop is a bit uncomfortable but really enjoyable with tight bass)
4) JBL Synchros S200 ( A little bassy bit a clear, tight sound)
5) Klipsch Image S4 ( My first foray into iems costlier than 30$ - These were treasured gems)
6) Brainwavz S0 ( For 25$, these have no business sounding this good)
7) Bose IE2 ( These were a bit of a dissapointment. Clean bass but a loose and tinny sound.)
8) JBL Synchros E10 ( Warm sound, good mids but a bit of overemphasis on bass. )
9) Klipsch S3m ( Clean sound, good mids, lack of bass.)
10) Soundmagic ES18 ( 10$, Brilliant sound)
10) JVC Marshmallows ( Quite good for 10$)
11) Denon Ah-C260 ( Good sound, detailed and crisp but absolutely lacking in bass. Not worth it.)
12) Jays a-jays one ( Not worth the money. At all. Boomy bass that overpowers everything )
13) Creative EP-630 ( Cheap and decent )
14) Sony MDR-EX110LP (30 dollars down the drain.)
15) Apple earpods ( Awful )
