What's the difference between FX1X and FX101 soundwise? Bass, mids, highs and soundstage etc. Are these V-shape or do they have fairly rolled-off or neutral highs?

Whoa, RPG, 2nd iem?

The FX101 and FR201 is indeed the same in ear in specification and perfomance.

I just ordered the FR201, pretty exited, when reading other take on it

Are the Jvc Hafx101 good for gym?
 
I LOVE the CKS77´s but im looking out for a pair for gym use and I came across this thread...how are the microphonics? 
 
Thanks all

The FX101. Danny..Don't settle for anything else. Almost no microphonics especially worn over the ear very comfy to boot.

The FX1X is a less refined earphone by much. I truly doubt you will like the FX1X at all RPG. The mids are overly warm even for you, the highs are very uneven and spiky to boot. The bass has a bigger punch than the CKS77 and monster sub bass..Stage is nice though but again no where near the refinement that is on the FX101. You might even find the sound more to your liking over the CKS77. I wouldn't doubt it. They don't have the big stage or depth of the CKS77 but does have a very nice refined sound with great sub bass.
 
Both you guys must get the FX101...Forget the old FX1X.
 
So I am at my inn with my family on vaca.. The net is as slow as dial up. Lol!!

Has anyone compared the 40s with fxt90?

 

[Dacrazydude]

The fxt90 were the first of the carbon nanotube drivers. I've read some japanese reviews between the unreleased fxd80 and the fxt90 though.

Wow it's only 29.99 on Amazon.com but total comes out to $55 to ship to Canada

Ok, I have to take back what I said about the fx40. At little more than half volume on my iPhone (treble is perfectly in line there), the detail and clarity is amazing. These are probably the best I've heard for low volume listening. $16 isreally a ridiculous value for these.

 

[Dsnuts]

That sucks. But believe it or not those are completely worth that.. I own 2 pairs of them myself. I would link you to the HTF600 thread but the net here at this place is unreal. IT is the slowest net I have ever used anywhere. It takes 5 minutes or so to load one page. I am gonna call it a night here but..
 
I thought I would check in from here just to see what is happening with threads. I suspect we will see many more impressions to come next week. I have my FX40 and my FX101 with me on this trip..
 
Both sound great.Lol!

 

[fullmoon280]

i bought the ha-fx40's and they have a hissing noise.the noise is not really constant and only starts up when i play something(music and youtube vids).the hissing will go away a few seconds after pausing/stopping whatever it is im listening to.generally the hiss is drowned out but when listening to classical music the hiss is very distracting.is there anyway i can get rid of this?

 Eke. I was wondering when you was gonna figure those out.Lol..Greetings from Durango Colorado. It is lovely here in the Rocky Mountains. Will be on the way to the Grand Canyon tomorrow.  Glad you are seeing why I was hyped about them.. If you keep using them they will just sound better and better..Look very much forward to your take on the CKM500. But for now..Those FX40s.. geeze. .
 
It is so difficult figuring out which one I actually prefer over the other.. Man it is unreal. For my trip I packed my CKM500s and CKS77 of course. But I also brought both the FX40 and the FX101..I was gonna just bring my CKM500s but decided to take a few more. The whole idea is to figure out which one of the 2 JVCs I liked better. But so far. I can't figure out which one..

Let me ask you what are you listening to your FX40 with.. They sound better just straight from a DAP. These are less forgiving of sound than most cheapos too so that might be another reason. You tube is not gonna have the best quality sound so these might expose some not so good quality vids you are watching.
