The driver is identical, the nozzels have no effect on the sound and the FD02 is less brighter.
I own the FD02 and use it with a improved upgrade cable from furutech.
But when you want to mod the FD01/02 to reduce the peak it is better to buy the FD01.
After a short period of brain adaption i can handle the energetic mids without mod.

Thank you so much for the help friend ,

Have any body compared the FD01/02 with the Acoustunes HS1670SS ,???

I'm currently looking for an iem with a bigbig/airy sound stage but vocals are still forward .Will the fd01 work? I've heard the ex1000 has one of the biggest sound stage. How is this compared to ex1000? I do prefer this one as it looks more comfortable though.

hi, any suggestions on a 4.4 balanced cable for the FD01? i enjoy the sound but ergonomically is not the best when worn over ears. any recommendations on a cable with good ergonomics would be much appreciated.

I'm using this one with my FD01: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/NIC...424.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.57e74c4dUkq2Lk .... goes very well with them, and @hakuzen has measured them as being quite good quality in the lower cost cables thread (here: https://www.head-fi.org/threads/low-end-cheap-generic-otherwise-bang-for-buck-cable-thread.891911/).

In general, I find that a good pure copper cable goes well, for my ears, with the FD01 (and I normally prefer silver cables).

Only thing is, you can usually end up paying around $55-65 for the cable, when there's more discount offered (11.11 etc), so it may not be the best possible moment to buy it, now.

I can hardly recommend the new Nobunaga Labs pure copper cable - i use it with FD02 and AK SE100
A great soft cable with zero microphonics and great resolution - it definitely takes the FD02 to a new level.

thanks all - i'll look at your suggestions.

For your information, i tried a Fiio cable. I strongly suggest avoiding this. the memory wire just doesnt work well with the FD01 leaving a poor seal. also, the right side connector has a poor fit to the earpiece making it really tight, but left side is ok. first time i experienced left/right having different fittings. may be poor QC.

Anyone wants to donate their largest tips? ))

They look different from my fw01 tips.

Maybe who has/had both phones can comment.

Need help, cant get good seal.

Heard the new spiral dot+ is some kind of memory silicone, cant find where to purchase.

Also any recommendations for custom ear tips and where to order?

About custom ear tips - I got mine from a small, local family business audiologist for €80, including the impressions.
He did a great job, fast, personal and professional, for less than half of what the big chain was asking.

 

[tonehk]

The spiral dot + is available for purchase (pre order now). but its super expensive.

Thanks!

So do they come default with fd01?

Ive got fw01 and mine do not fit decently.

From images fw and fd are different, that is why asking here.

Also how one orders from amazon japan?

 

[tonehk]

Yes they come with the FD01, but the ones with FD01 are not coloured just black. if you want to buy just order directly from amazon japan like you would from amazon us. you may need to create a jp account. they ship international.
