The sound is great, but the wearing experience is average
After years of lusting after a JVC woodie, my FW01 finally arrived. The sound is big, full, warm, and luscious – exactly what I have always wanted! However… I cannot get a good fit no matter what I do. There is a very acute nozzle angle that doesn’t seem to fit in what I thought were my normal ears. In fact, they fit better when reversed right to left! I also tried wearing them up, but once again they fit better wearing the right on the left side. Also, the cord plug is huge and extends up through the middle of the ear so the cord will not wrap around it!
I’ve been a huge fan of JVCs premium offerings for a while now so I come from a place of a bit of bias but also experience. These things sound amazing, particularly with hiphop, rock, Nu-metal and rap. The bass is rich and hard, mids are beautiful, and the highs have enough sparkle in them to balance out the sound while having zero sibilance. Guitars in particular sound great.
The build is also exceptional. These are a little piece of luxury in the hand.
They were too warm for my taste but it is subjective so if that is what you are looking for, great! Also these don't include spiral dots but something similar which is a bummer. Still listening experience was quite pleasant.
It's more detailed than the previous series, the 650 750 850, but it's a little tempered sound.
You can still feel the characteristics of wood well, but it has become closer to a more popular sound.
