JBLoudG20 Posted July 16, 2009 Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 If you have a problem with your er6i, I can't imagine anything else being any better. The er6i sticks out of my ear too much and gets snagged by my helmet on the way off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rlanger Posted July 16, 2009 Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 Yeah, I guess I just find it aggravating that I would have to be deprived of something I've been waiting 6 weeks for, because THEY made a mistake. Boo hoo, right? But it still chaps my hide a bit. The do sound fucking fantastic though! The more I listen, the less and less I want them to go anywhere! I'm in the exact same boat. My right earpiece feels slightly small and I can't get the same seal as I can with the left one, but they still sound perfect. They just feel a little bit off. They also got my cable colour wrong and printed my full name on my case, which is not what I asked for. Having said that, these are all things I can live with, but really shouldn't have to. I've emailed Jerry twice in the last week about my fit issue, but have had no response. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBLoudG20 Posted July 16, 2009 Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 for under helmet use, etys are TERRIBLE Yup. With a custom, even if it were to stick out of my ear as much as the ety (which I doubt) it has a smooth, large backside which I don't think will get caught on the padding as much. At least that is my thought process. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edwood Posted July 16, 2009 Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 Having said that, these are all things I can live with, but really shouldn't have to. I've emailed Jerry twice in the last week about my fit issue, but have had no response. Jerry's email had been getting full lately. Man he's crazy busy. Email him again, or better yet, give JH Audio a call on the phone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edwood Posted July 16, 2009 Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 At this price and for something that is supposed to be uber custom you should be absolutely happy, no compromises. Having said that, I think you should not let anything stand in your way from being totally happy with your purchase, any little issue with the iems now will continue to bug you over time spoiling your overall impression. Now is the time to be type A bitchy, just my two cents. For first time custom IEM users with fit issues, make sure you are seating them fully and correctly. Give them a few days of long time wearing to get used to them and then see if the fit issues are still there. And there is no need to go "Type A Bitchy" at JH Audio. Asking nicely (but insistantly) will get the same result without being an asshole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augsburger Posted July 16, 2009 Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 I never meant nor think it is appropriate to ever yell or scream at anyone and I certainly didn't mean screaming I am being an asshole bitchy, I meant picky until you are happy type A bitchy. I guess we all have our subjective interpretations of type -A bitchy, and my bitchy interpretation is nicer than your interpretations of bitchy.

Hopstretch Posted July 16, 2009 Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 Just for symmetry's sake then, it's probably best to be Type B Bitchy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augsburger Posted July 16, 2009 Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 Actually from a chi perspective it is better to be none of the above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iron_Dreamer Posted July 16, 2009 Report Share Posted July 16, 2009 Well, I managed to talk to Jerry today. He is going to remake my set, and I need not send back the one I have now until I get the new one. So he definitely came through to take care of the situation, just as I would have expected.

boomana Posted July 17, 2009 Report Share Posted July 17, 2009 Just been listening to Paul Chambers' Chamber Mates and I've Got My Love to Keep Me Warm from the Mosaic Select 5. I'm really having a hard time believing I'm getting the sound I am from and ipod touch>pico>jh13s. I'm cautioning myself as I type to not feed that mysterious hype machine, but the only real thought that's been running through my head is that there is nothing, sq-wise, I feel is lacking, nothing I would change. I can't stop listening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boomana Posted July 17, 2009 Report Share Posted July 17, 2009 I'm far too private for such public display. On a side note, I used to live a few blocks away from Katz's Deli in the Lower East Side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rlanger Posted July 17, 2009 Report Share Posted July 17, 2009 I'm really having a hard time believing I'm getting the sound I am from and ipod touch>pico>jh13s. Is there a significant improvement with the Pico? I'm considering one, but can't really imagine how much better it can get. They already sound really great right out of my Zune.

They already sound really great right out of my Zune. I just did a little listening straight from my Sansa Clip and modded IHP-120. There is no question that the Pico makes the bass impact more noticeable and physical. The JH13 is so revealing, though, that using the Pico DAC, as opposed to either of the above players makes by far the biggest difference. The difference in clarity and detail is very significant. Now I just want to hear them from a uber-high-end DAC! If you are just listening from a DAP, you're leaving quite a bit on the table.
