JVC x Drop FDX1 reviewed by: Crin
Highly technical sound with a clean, well-tuned neutral signature. Crin Youtube Channel
JVC x Drop FDX1 reviewed by: Precogvision
Good tonal balance and technicalities, but decay is truncated which results in etched timbre. Dynamics are also dull. Precogvision Youtube Channel

JVC x Drop FDX1 reviewed by: Nymz
Metalic timbre with fast decay. A little more enphasis around 4.5k than I would like, but overall pleasent tuning. Very technical, just lacking some dynamics and treble refinement.

Tanchjim Origin reviewed by: Jays Audio
Just buy Fission. A cleaner/less warm LM, smoother EA1000 (fermats a little more resolving), very balanced, clean, and neutral sound. Very tough competition. Jays Audio Youtube Channel
Tanchjim Origin reviewed by: Precogvision
Japanese flavor of tuning (mid-bass and upper-mid focus) finally done justice. Strong technical chops and slightly forward. Precogvision Youtube Channel

Beautiful timbre and treble Bass can use a bit more...volume Tim Tuned Youtube Channel

Tanchjim Origin reviewed by: Gizaudio Axel
Smooth, detailed, and vocal-centric sound. Cohesive, vocal-focused tuning with dynamic bass, smooth extended treble, and excellent detail. Could use more sub-bass.Gizaudio Axel original ranking
