  1. :(

    What do you consider good korean music then? (not trying to start an argument, just want to know what you think)

    heh, no argument, i just don't listen to korean music, although i'm willing to take suggestions so i can be in touch with the motherland's best offerings. ;)

  2. In my previous research position we used pigs between 5 and 80kg...... we would catch, anaesthetise, cut the throat, and remove the lungs to take back to the lab for experimentation. Every morning all I could think of was how delicious pork ribs are.

  3. 4 hours max.

    damn, only 4 hours? damn, i was hoping for at least the same length as modern warfare.

    I only have a xbox360 nd I don't even play it anymore..my galfriend plays alot..

    thanks for the great contribution

  4. I honestly thought I was about half way through when the game ended. Obviously set up for a follow-up game because the story line was far from over when the credits started rolling. I thought it was very short and fairly easy game on the regular setting.

    Outside of that the graphics and gameplay were fantastic.

    That short huh? I got the game, but I haven't had a chance to play it at all yet. How many hours would you say that you sunk into it?

  5. Unless you mean transparency-wise . . . the disappearing act we often refer to might be a slight misnomer (IMHO of course).

    In terms of disappearing, I definitely forget that I'm listening to an earphone when I have them in, I meant more in a literal term that I can feel them in my ears the entire time I have them in. Some people have stated that their fit is so good that it's like wearing nothing, but that hasn't been the case for me.

    I'll wait to see if Brittany emails me back in the next week. I'm not so sure about changing the housing shape, as they seem to fit in my ears just fine, but what do I know about making customs really. If there's someway to alleviate this situation, then I'll definitely send them back to JH for a refit, although I have to say that I'm really dreading having to live without them for a week. They sound way too amazing and I don't think I've yet fully wrapped my head around how great these little buggers are.

  6. Did you ever hear back from JH Audio? It would seem that the outer part of the housing (how it fits snugly in the top/bottom of the outer ear) should keep them from popping out from simply smiling. (Do your ears move back when you smile; can you wiggle your ears a lot, and if so, does this also pop them out?). Can see the bore size being an issue only if you took a closed-mouth impression. This is all conjecture, of course, as is my thought that maybe the one ear impression was not the best.

    At the price and planned length of ownership, you really do deserve a perfect fit and it's worth the effort.

    ETA - see you partially answered above while I was writing; will however leave as posted......

    I haven't heard back from JH Audio yet, which is a bit troubling, but I'm sure they're just swamped. As you stated, the cost of entry and planned length of ownership are definitely a reason why I'm still considering sending these things in for a refit. I will probably call them next week after I've spent a bit more time with them over the weekend.

    My ears do change shape ever so slightly when I smile, as the top of my ear does move up a bit. What I noticed is happening is that when I smile, the earphones are being shifted up, putting more pressure towards the antihelix. This causes the earphones to sort of accommodate that movement by shifting outwards and thus popping out of my ears. My left side actually "pops" out when I smile, probably meaning I have a pretty good seal forming, but my right side slides out more easily.

    The earphones themselves feel like they fit pretty snug in my ears, which led me to think that the earcanal section needs to be a bit thicker, but I'm not quite sure. They are very comfortable, but I don't have that "disappearing" affect when wearing them. I can obviously tell that they are there, so I'm not sure if thicker canals would make it more obvious and possible painful.

  7. are they too big or too small? you could use some clear nail polish to enlarge the problem areas, if they are too small.

    they fit fine really. they pop out if i smile really broadly, but if i open my mouth or whatever, they stay put. it's probably the size of the part that goes in my ear canals that's a bit off, but like i said, my face is normally very neutral when listening to music, so there's really no problem. the only problem i've had so far was listening to Car Talk with these in and laughing my ass off.

  8. Did you send them back for a re-fit or are you keeping them as is? I really wish mine was back from the re-fit. :(

    i decided to just keep them, as they fit great if i'm just sitting there listening to them. hope you get your refits back promptly and hopefully your audiologist got the impression right this time.

  9. Okay, now it's my bloody left ear that pops out when I smile. As long as I don't smile, it seems like the seal is good. I've emailed JH, we'll see what they say.

    The noise isolation isn't as good as my etys, but the sound is out of this world. The bass is absolutely fantastic.
