should i assume that a lot of Menotr's owners reached the end of the game? same thing happened to the Custom Art owners less comments etc because they don't need to search around anymore, and enjoying what does they have.
The Mentor is certainly the most stunning IEM I have ever had the pleasure of listening to. It offered everything I ever wanted in a "fun" headphone - full bodied sound, with impressive extensions at both ends without any excessive treble sparkle bordering on sibilance.
With that said, the JH13 FP is certainly a very capable IEM. I auditioned it today, and was quite blown away by what I heard. A very coherent sound with excellent imaging qualities. In contrast, the JH16 FP sounded a little too muddy with its mid-bass hump.
I am still on the fence about buying either these Mentors or the JH13's. I really wished I could audition them so I could make an informed decision. I am coming from a Westone 4. I really liked the sound, but I thought they were a little too sterile and not enough "fun."
@ Malevolent: If you had auditioned the JH13's before you ordered the Mentors would you have made the same choice? Why?
Thank you very much for that well thought out and detailed reply! I really, really appreciate it.
Good news! My impressions were submitted on 13 September, but I just received a call that my Mentors are in! That's just over 2 weeks. Will be going down later to collect them. Can't wait to try them on!
Nice! Can't wait to hear your impressions.
wow..this is insanely fast~mine took 4 weeks..
Hi guys, here are some short impressions about my Mentor.
They look exactly as I wanted them to be. Build quality is pretty much perfect, with hardly a blemish to be found anywhere. The fit is spot on, and it forms a strong seal in my ear that is only broken if I simulate a rapid chewing action.
Anyway, I haven't had much time to test them, but they sound just as good as the universals, if not a little cleaner. Sound seems to be a bit tighter in the bass department, and the smooth but extended highs that I fell in love with are still there.
Will post more detailed impressions when I get adequate playing time on them. For now, all I can say is that this is musical bliss.

That was a tease...more, more, more impressions!
