I have some driver flex on both side and it doesn't effect the sound. But I wonder that can "driver flex" damage the drivers in long time?

 
A little bit of "Search" will help you a long way

Some of the best produced electronical music comes from Yello.
Try a track called Planet Dada [Flamboyant]
Listen after sounstage width and height, instrumental separation, harshness and sibilance.

got a chance to compare FXT90 and PK1.. disclaimer: I am a complete noob with reviewing/audio terms so feel free to correct any mistakes below
 
gear: iPod classic 160 GB -- iBasso CB07 LOD -- iBasso T3 -- FXT90/PK1
 
1. Jimi Hendrix: All Along the Watch Tower (ALAC)
 
FXT90 @ T3 volume 0.9
- drums:
- cymbals: much louder than PK1, to a point where it's fatiguing as it repeats through the entire song
- guitar: handles the rapid guitars note transitions slightly better (faster?)
- vocal:
- sound stage: width is about the same
 
PK1 @ T3 volume 2.1
- drums: more impact than FXT90
- cymbals: lower volume than FXT90
- guitar:
- vocal: slightly louder (more forward?) than FXT90
- sound stage: width is about the same

Finally got the chance to listen to this... they are not for me It's all bass then treble then mids. Signing-off from this thread.

Funny... I hear the complete opposite. heh.

^Yeah same for me.  I wouldn't say they're neutral, but they're fairly balanced.  Mids are actually pretty nice.

 

[qwerty99]

how do these compare to the ie7?

I'll listen to them back to back later to give a better impression, but off the top of my head/memory... IE7's have a larger, grander sound stage, stronger bass.  Sounds a touch warmer, as well.  The FX-T90's are cleaner up top and have less mid-bass.  Mids I think are slightly cleaner but are a bit closer to you.
 
I think the JVC are the cleaner, probably technically more capable 'phone, but the IE7's have a little bit more of an enjoyable, overall-perhaps "smoother" (?) presentation.

Just bought the fxt90s today from Futureshop. Comparing to the IE8 and MTPC the fxt90 has much better clarity, they actually make the mtpc sounded slightly muddy. However like mentioned by other owners, the treble is actually really fatiguing and sibilance is present. I just started burning them in so hopefully it would tame down the highs. 
 
And there's something about the fit on the left earphone, i've already went through my tips collection but i just couldn't get it to sit tight in my left ear. I tried putting the right earphone into my left ear and vice versa and it works, but it's just the left earphone that wouldn't fit well on both my ears.

had this iem for probably 5 months now. i was listening to them for like 5 hours straight yesterday waiting at a sports event and it made the wait bearable. thanks fxt90s

I sold my pair of the FXT90s a couple months ago but when I saw these at FutureShop Canada the other day, I just couldn't resist not buying them again. This time they're here to stay

Anybody have problems fitting a Comply T400 tip on the FXT90? Is it a smooth fit or do you have to struggle with it a bit? I found it's the latter for me, as the T400's opening is just slightly smaller than the FXT90's nozzle diameter.

T-500 would fit easier, but you can still do it.
 
You just have to soften the plastic stem.
 
Take some thin pliers, insert them inside the T-400 stem and open them gently to expand the stem from the inside.
Do that for a minute and the stem should get a bit more elastic, allowing you to install the tips more easily.

Thanks for the tip. Got it in finally, but I see that the tubing is slightly out of shape. Maybe that could exert unequal pressure from inside as well as the expanding foam?

Hi, Requesting a picture of a FXT90 without the tips covering... I want to see the filter... I bought mine second-hand and it doesn't seem to have a filter.... 
 
Thank you

I can confirm that your pair is missing the filter - there should be a mesh filter at the opening of the sound tube.
