$10 + $16= Hugh? Thats a cheap dollar movie and some McDonalds Big mac meals. Lol! Much more satisfaction.
 

 
Lol, I gotta save up for a car though! Still a little highschooler over here. Plus i've already spent soo much on my past headphones which sadly broke recently. But if these fx101s are as good as you guys say they are, I should be happy for a looong time.

Haha how do you know this song? I'm Jamaican. We used to bust out in this song randomly when we were bored in elementary school.

Yeah, that was some freaky song selection for the movie. That's the movie that featured the shrunken head I considered using for my avatar. Though that head wasn't conducive to adding headphones.
 

 
 
The backstory on my avatar is a guy walking along the beach. He finds a brass lamp. Picks it up and a curvaceous female genie pops out. She grants him one wish. Eyeballing her up and down,  he asks, "How about a little head?"

That's too funny lol
 
So I know these buds are cheap and everything but hows the build quality? They look pretty solid from the pictures that I've seen but looks can be deceiving. I'm not that rough with my IEMs but I could be gentler if need be.

Has anyone seen any of these recommended earphones in any major BM stores?

I'd be very surprised if the JVCs weren't in any major store, up here in Canada Futureshop sells pretty much all of them and they are owned by Best Buy, so my guess would be Best Buy in the states would have them.

Best Buy USA definitely has them in stock.

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 JVC Riptidz might be better suited for gym use. It is sweat and water resistant. if you don't want isolation, then you might want to look into the JVC HA-EB75 earbuds with earhooks. It sound quite decent and won't fall out of your ears. If regular IEMs fall out of your ears while working out, you might want to the JVC IEMs with earhooks. I forgot the model numbers of those, and which one is for men and which for women(the women's one is for smaller ears).

Thanks for the reply but I have never had a pair of IEM´s fall out of my ears  so Im just worried about microphonics, can you hear the wire bang everytime you run?
 
I will look into the Riptidz...thanks again!

Wearing it with the cord around your ear will help minimize that. So will using a clip to clip the wire to your shirt. That is a problem with all IEMs though.

I think i really love the fx101s more then the cks77s because the ssound is a little more intamate then it. Also i feel that the sub bass i much better

 

[RPGWiZaRD]

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?

 

[inContrast]

Wow just an overnight burn in on the fx101s does them nicely. :'D
