Hello All,
My FW01 just arrived from Drop and was able to have a listen this morning. All I can say is that these are truly amazing to me, warm, lush, huge sound - exactly what I was after! But also huge in size... I can no way get a good fit wearing them down with any of the tips provided! The angle of the nozzle seems too awkward for my ears and I just can't keep them in! I read in an earlier post to try wearing them up and did. Much better wearing up but with one big problem. They were not designed that way and the plugs are in the way of being able to wrap the cord around my ears. Haha. Anyone find a solution to this? Maybe a cord with shorter MMCX plugs?
PS Upon further inspection, they fit better when put in the opposite ears! I'm truly at a loss trying to figure out a fit and don't understand why the nozzles point outward instead of inward, which feel much better. Can't they just build them like my Bose QC20's and be done with it?
