Would it be worth getting the FD-X1 if I already have the FD01SP. 4 nozzles with the Special Edition so do I really need more?

Both the original HA-FD01 and our HA-FDX1 are produced in China.
Here is a photo of the HA-FD01 carton (see bottom left hand corner):

Just a heads up, the link to SBAF doesn't work. You'll need to remove some of the characters from your query string, otherwise it triggers a redirect. Same thing happens when sharing links from ASR here as well.

I envy all the folks that get an Early Sample for test listening. And look forward to seeing some reviews. Would like to compare them to the Moondrop Kanas Pro's, and the TFZ No.3 Ti's.

This stuff is delicious staple food. There is nothing bad about preserved eggs. Just pour some soy sauce, add some scallions, and it’s an easy complement to your rice.

Great write-up, excited to see such a collaboration is happening. The FD01 is truly a special IEM when modified, so having that out-the-box and at this price point is great news. Looking forward to details on how the filters will be designed/implemented and to get a pair to try out!

Thanks for the encouragement, jafnvegi. We're very excited too, JVC has been fantastic to work with.
Some people have just gotten some samples. We've been slowly burning them in at a moderate volume with 48 hours of pink noise and letting a couple people come to the office to listen before we send them out. (We're also checking to make sure people are in town, available, addresses haven't changed, etc.) Trying things a bit differently so impressions are out there over this month as well as next!

When do Black Friday / Cyber Monday sales end?
I plan on ordering around 1-3 A.M EST but I'm afraid of sales ending at midnight.

"We like <XX dynamic driver IEM>'s effortless bass but the treble is just fatiguing"
"We like the <XX dynamic driver IEM>'s mids & treble but the bass is just overpowering"
"I'm willing to pay up to $500 for a TOTL [top of the line] DD IEM"

"Excuse me, LOL, whut?" Stay tuned for more details, decoding, & wordy explanations. DESIRABLE PARTNER JVC Kenwood is able to make proprietary drivers and great-sounding IEMs with the resources of a $4B a year company. Audiophile Did You Know? -In 1927, JVC was established as the Japanese subsidiary of the Victor Talking Machine Company. (Japanese Victor Company!) -In 1930, JVC made the first Japanese phonograph "victorola", the first extended play record, and later the first stereo record player. -JVC made breakthrough developments in the 45/45 stereo record system and in four-channel audio systems. -In the 1980’s, your parents owned a JVC VCR. -In 2014, JVC merged with Kenwood USA. -In 2019, Will Bright keeps a special pair of JVC woody headphones on his desk at Drop. They have a warm, addictive sound like nothing else. JVC makes some of the favorite woody and bassy IEMs that audiophiles used to seek out, like the HP-FX700 in 2009:
