Bloom's Take

FiR Audio is known for their IEMs with natural but impactful delivery and extra punch in the lows. Single dynamic driver IEMs have a similar reputation in general, often with bloated tunings. “These are gonna be bass monsters,” we thought when we first put the e12s in our ears and cranked up the music.

But surprisingly, they were stunningly balanced, with well-extended highs, deep bass, full mids, and a sense of speed you’d never believe for a 12mm single DD. In fact, we can’t emphasize enough the importance of a proper fit and ear tip to get the FiR Tactile Bass rumble for which they are intended (since the shell itself works in tandem with the driver, you need good contact.) Its engagement comes from its honest, lifelike presentation and makes the e12’s single driver performance stand out among a sea of increasingly unique IEM designs.

With machined aluminum shells, SwapX removable / interchangeable faceplates, leather-wrapped case, eartips, Space Force patch, and 2-pin 4.4mm cable that is akin to Effect Audio and PW Audio’s $1000 silver / copper lineups, you’re getting a solid, premium package from FiR here.

Tactile Bass

Reverberating Bass, creating a textured and tactile feel to the lows. The 12mm electro-dynamic driver, intricately coupled with the IEM chassis, acts as a secondary transducer for lower frequencies, delivering a deeper and richer bass that elevates your listening experience to new heights. Proprietary Tactile Bass Technology takes it a step further by utilizing the entire solid shell, allowing the bass to reverberate for a textured and tactile feel in the low end.

ATOM Venting

No more pressure. With a traditional in-ear, your ear canal is completely sealed with created air pressure which has no way to escape, causing fatigue in your ear drum and potentially long-term hearing loss.

With the ATOM system, your ear drums stay in their natural position so you can listen to music longer and safer without tiring. The soundstage is wider and feels more natural.
