The company claims the wood construction gives the earphones superior sound quality, in addition to superior style.
While the original cans went for nearly $800, the JVC HA-FX700 will come with a $330 price tag. Though the price is steep, you're paying for undeniably pretty earphones, purportedly high sound quality, and a lot of little parts:

The JVC HA-FX700 will be available in Japan in February and likely obtainable through your preferred Japanese electronics importer. [CrunchGear (http://www.crunchgear.com/2009/12/24/ha-fx700-jvcs-wooden-and-pricey-earphones/)]
