The newest installment in JVC’s Wood Series, the HA-FW01 IEM harnesses the power of wood to create natural-sounding audio with detail to spare. Its 50μm lightweight wood dome diaphragm is 40 percent lighter than conventional IEM diaphragms and equipped with JVC’s unique thin-film processing technology Read More
ElectronicVicesYes, I've had a little experience with estats. In terms of resolution without harshness though, for me the gold standard is the AMT driver. It delivers the most perfect highs I've ever heard. Unfortunately, it's classically been unable to reproduce the very low end of frequencies. Though, HEDD has just come up with a full-range AMT driver. That should be interesting.
"Estimated ship date: Oct 5th, 2023". Current date: Oct 7th, 2023. Why don't you CONIRM that the manufacturer can provide the required amount of units BEFORE offering to sell it to your customers?
It's either that the manufacturer is having difficulty, OR it's that some greedy corporate suit is keeping MY money, OUR money in a high interest savings account and will never actually place the order.
It has now been 4 MONTHS since you have given the first estimated shipping date, and you have missed your own deadline 4 times. This is the most recent occurrence. Shame on you, Drop for your inability to be completely honest with why this is happening. DO BETTER!

SkyFlakesThis is my second order on drop, first time wasn't any issues, but now... Well hope I will get order before christmas. Tempted to cancel order, but kinda money spent and forgotten, so could wait a little more and see how this is gonna end. But in the future will never order from drop ever again after such communication.
You said they'd be ready to ship by July 23rd, 2023 and then pushed the ship date to August 23rd 2023. It is now the 25th. I sent Drop a support message inquiring as to the status of my order, but while they're still pondering a response, I've received 2 promotional emails asking me to spend MORE money on their website! How about you prioritize the customers you already HAVE? I ordered the Sennheiser Jubilee headphones off Drop.com and they were shipped exactly on the day they said they would ship (there was a drop ship date).
Anyone else encountering the same problem?
SkyFlakesSame problem. Ordered on June 19, shipment once was postponed to August 21, still haven't shipped, asked support what's the deal, they answered some problems with vendor/supplier. So after more than 2 months waiting I don't even know when order will be sent
Having ordered in January I genuinely believe it will take a year or more for me to receive these. I have patience, but what I dont have is respect for a company who so clearly does not care about verifying the availability of product BEFORE guaranteeing a ship date (four times at this point), and accepting payment from trusting customers. I genuinely believe Drop is sitting on their thumbs with shoulders shrugged and NO initiative being given to try and figure out how to solve this as quickly as possible.
Four times support has told me "this is on the logistic teams radar", but I never hear what the logistics team has found, what can be done about it, and what the idea going forward should be. Instead, my ship date simply bumps up a month.... This will be the second and last time I order from Drop, for the "savings" I'm definitely fine shelling out more to listen to these MONTHS ahead of time versus wasting my life not having them hoping they'll eventually fall from the sky.
bacom15Jesus christ, waiting since January :( I won't complain that I am waiting since June. And also this is my second time buying from drop and also the last
bacom15I couldn't agree with you more!!! Everything you said is true I've done the same exact thing four times!!! They even tried to flip it on me saying that I must have missed the notice and guess what after I complained then I got the notice. They sent me the notice after they said I should have seen the notice that it had gone it's all nonsense!!! An at this point I'm literally in the same boat as you if they fall from the sky then I'll be happy as a pig in you know what.!!! I got to tell you a huge JVC fan also so I really do want to get this especially at this price but it has been a nightmare. Hopefully everything works out for everybody!!! E
Initially shipping at Feb 15, delayed to Feb 24, and now to July 10. "CHIP SHORTAGE". Why bother selling it at the beginning then? why not sell it when available?
Can anyone tell me what the drop price was on this? I wrote the leading review on Head-Fi, and have been a big fan of the JVC woodies going back to the first model released. I ended up giving my FW01 to my son, but if the price is right, I might pick up a set when they are available again.
And gone again, just as quickly. They must have had a few extra from the first drop. Still waiting for mine to get here. Saturday the 11th can't get here quickly enough.
Tony1223Hey Tony, Erik here. I didn't check my emails to see the update but I do see that they changed the ship date to October 30th here where you look at the headphones. And then you have something that says November 17th and I'm going to bet that that's more accurate. Thank you for the information I'm going to look in my emails and see if they sent me one. It really is getting ridiculous though.
PS- I checked my email and sure enough November 17th. Even though the tentative ship date was October 5th, one of the Drop customer support reps named Liz told me that when they got an update they would let us know. So even though it's 21 days past the last supposed ship date they may not have heard anything from JVC till now. You would think that Drop having come up with the FDX1 and selling so many of them,that they would have some pull with JVC. I knew your information was accurate!!!Thank you for the update, Erik
