I too have the Roxanne and previously had the JH16. The JH16 was my fav CIEM or headphone of all time. The Roxanne bass sounds good, as good as what you're used to from you JH16. The big difference for me is the expansive "out of head" experience with the sounstage I see other people reporting (more headphone like experience), and the upper frequency response. The Roxanne is much more detailed and prominent in the upper half of the spectrum, and more detailed all around, but still laid back and not harsh. My only complaint of the JH16 was lack of treble energy, which was mostly fixed with a Twag V2, but then it became overly bright at times and harsh...The $500 is subjective...but for me worth it because I got my "JH16 level bass", and I got my treble and soundstage too.

Do you feel they are $500 better? Is the bass as prominent and pure?
