absolutely loving these

if you're hoping for ultra clinical or big sound stage, this isnt it. these are very warm and have an almost tubey like sound to them, but they are still very energetic with great bass, they also remain very composed at higher volumes. i disagree with some of the comments saying they are a one trick pony as most of my music sounds amazing, but they are definitely weaker with fast paced rock music. on the other hand anything with acoustic instruments is absurdly good and life-like. the build quality is also amazing...especially at he price i got them. i will add that i am no headphone expert, but iv had my eyes on these for a while because they seemed to fit the characteristics that i like and i am not disappointed, they are addicting to listen to.

If you want to upgrade......

It's about the JVC HA-FW1800 IEM, Packing - No doubt of good, Made in Japan Cable - only use 4.4mm, did try different type of cable but seeems Sony MUC-M12SB1 4.4mm have better performance at the moment. Run in - after 100 hrs was better than beginning, but not fruity enough especially in Treble, continue running up to 300 hrs, i think will have significant change Bass - very JVC bass remain unchange, definily no complain Earplugs - It's ok , but hard to find a replacement, i've try at least three different brand but still can't find better than orginal Sound - typical Japanese IEM, like : Sony, Acoustune , a bit different with US IEM ( Shure, Westone ), it's all depends on which type of sound you like most. This price could buy a past flagship IEM was very competive, you cannot buy the same price in your local market. Comment : If you want to upgarde this IEM, you may need some times to searching earplug & cable, it shall have big impact, i'm quite sure on this.

For a specific use case

Short story, it serves it's purpose. To me it's a laid back, chill and fun pair of IEMs, if given enough power. // The 1800s were paired with a Hiby RS2 for mobile use, and an ifi Zen DAC V2 on desktop. // Right out the bat, the IEMs have good heft to them, from all that Nihon no Ki, probably. The seal's weird for me; it doesn't feel like the nozzle and tips provide a good seal. There's not much noise isolation present for me, with the stock tips provided. Obviously, YMMV and I didn't have extra tips on hand to swap around. The cable has got a nice weight and feel to it for a stock cable. Plus How does it sound? Well, sonically it's laid back. The first thing I noticed is that the bass, especially sub-bass, hits hard down low. It didn't sound V-shaped -- the treble was quite light -- and the mids were decidedly alright. Didn't have that special sauce that made it sound magical. But I did like the frequency response of it, really. The technicalities, on the other hand... The sound staging on this is narrow even for an IEM, and the presentation leans towards the intimate side. Imaging is pretty fuzzy too. Most of my listening was done on the RS2 and while it's not light on the power department, I did find that the 1800s sounded underpowered. The technicalities were almost non-existent and it sounded very 2-dimensional. With the Zen DAC, it sounds much more enjoyable. Sonically it was more engaging and fulfilling, and technically it was slightly better. So who are the JVCs for then? If you're the kind of person that gets distracted easily by the presentation of music, and want a pair of IEMs that let you listen to music in the background, then I think these are perfect. Especially if you're a collector/have a collection of IEMs for various use cases. These aren't worth it at full price, so (only) consider them if they're on sale.
