My favourite earphones, the JVC FX700, have been lost to sticky fingers.  I'd like to buy another pair, but I'm wondering if I can get similar sound to the FX-700s but with better isolation?  I love the bass and soundstage of the FX700, but maybe you can only get that type of sound with an open design?  Not sure - but I am not interested in custom IEMs.

Yes, I don't think you will find that openess and timbre in any other earphone due to the FX700's design, but the SM3 or SM2 provides bass that's close with great isolation.

Yup the FX700 would be unique.  If you need isolation and soundstage Coppers and IE8s would be the best alternative.
