still hasn't finished baking (burn in), yet the smell (sound) is already fantastic!

 

ok so this review will need to be updated in about 24 hours, but so far so darned good! I ordered the FX40's from Amazon, and got them in a timely fashion yesterday. I was excited because I received my UE 500's and my MEE A151's at the same time. Let...

I would have paid twice for these

 

As the other reviewers stated, these headphones come out of the box sounding excessive in the high end range. After about 15 hours of use my set provided a much more natural and balanced sound. I'm extremely pleased with the precision of the sound. As...

Great Headphones, but you MUST BURN IN

 

For anyone who thinks that burning in/breaking in headphones is a myth, these headphones are proof that it is actually necessary. These headphones sound very bright out of the box. I would have been very disappointed if I didn't read the reviews about...

Amazing

 

Great IEMs for balanced listening. If you like listening to your music without a crazy amount of bass then these are for you! I am constantly switching between these and the FX101s. These IEMs are money well spent.

Where's The Beef?"...I mean Bass

 

I purchased the HA-FX40B 8 days ago because they were supposed have decent bass response and the price was right (16 dollars today on Amazon). Out of the box, they sounded horrible. Absolutely no bass and the treble was so shrill and zingy I could not...

Spectacular! (after burn-in)

 

After 150 hours of beat-heavy burn-in, I am extremely impressed with these IEMs. Do not judge these based on their sound direct from the box. Instead, allow them to bake a bit. Burn them in with a drum and bass track on loop for about 6 days and nights...

Possibly the best bargain in audio today.

 

These sound like audiophile-grade earphones. I also own the Sennheiser HD600 ($300) and the Denon D5000 ($400). Listening to the FX40, I don't feel like I'm missing out on much coming from more expensive full-sized headphones. The FX40 has a fun,...
