Large Dynamic Driver

The FiiO FT1 features a newly developed second-generation 60mm large dynamic driver, meticulously designed for FiiO's first closed-back headphone. Its larger-than-average driver size enhances energy conversion efficiency and provides a solid foundation for potent bass. Additionally, the increased driver size results in low low-frequency resonance points, allowing for deeper bass, dynamic sound, and an overall authoritative sound.

Nanowood Fiber Composite Diaphragm

The FiiO's diaphragm primarily consists of carefully selected wood fibers, based on 90-year-old spruce wood from Northern Europe. This wood is a top-grade raw material for musical instruments and fiber products, known for its clear sound and natural tone. Spruce wood undergoes a series of processes, including soaking, cooking, and beating, to create specific wood pulp. To meet acoustic toughness requirements, a precise proportion of carbon fiber material is added.

To fully unleash the acoustic performance of the nanowood fibers, light PU material with high internal resistance is utilized for the suspension gasket, improving diaphragm compliance. This process strengthens the density of the vocals from the source of the sound, resulting in warm, lush vocals.

Art of Sound

The FiiO FT1, in alignment with its overall acoustic design and high-level listening experience, employs a nanowood fiber composite diaphragm. It exhibits excellent high-frequency extension and transient response, resulting in clean, precise sound with clear imaging tone, and providing unique, sweet, high-density mid-frequency vocals. This driver works in harmony with the FT1's other acoustic design elements for a specifically-tuned frequency response for a pure and pleasant sonic experience.

Innovative W-Shaped Suspension Gasket

As the first closed-back over-ear headphones from FiiO, FT1 pioneers a new generation of in-house acoustic technology, the W-shaped suspension gasket. The 25mm diameter voice coil is larger compared to similar models and has been specifically tuned. Compared to typical similarly sized diaphragms, the W-shaped diaphragm achieves a 25.8% increase in effective vibrating area, allowing it to store more energy reserves.

The FT1's diaphragm, with a hard dome and compliant suspension gasket, allows the 25mm large diameter voice coil to directly drive the stiffer dome region. This setup minimizes vibration losses between different materials and reduces distortion caused by driver breakup, allowing the FT1 to deliver refined sound.

Japanese CCAW Voice Coil

To ensure robust and high-quality sound, the FiiO FT1 utilizes a specially imported Japanese ultra-fine CCAW (Copper-Clad Aluminum Wire) voice coil with a diameter of up to 25mm. A longer voice coil copper wire can directly enhance transducer efficiency and drive capacity, improving transient response and resulting in purer sound.

Each individual wire core in the CCAW coil has a diameter of approximately 0.035mm, as thin as a hair. Additionally, the voice coil frame employs lightweight Caption, which helps to significantly reduce the overall diaphragm mass. The result is enhanced response speed and minimized reverberation.

Additional Features

Up to -26dB of Sound Isolation
The FT1 incorporates a series of sound insulation components to effectively reduce ambient noise, including external voices and environmental sounds by up to -26 dB. Whether you are commuting, editing recordings, working in an office or gaming, the FT1 allows you to immerse yourself in a high-fidelity audio work.

U-Shaped Sound Damping Tube
The U-shaped sound damping tube enhances passive noise attenuation, but also allows sound energy to pass through a specific length and angle of the flute, increasing air viscosity and reducing cavity resonance frequency. This further enhances bass extension. You'll distinctly feel the air movement and the focused power of drums and strings.

Conical Baffle Plate
FiiO's development team designed a conical baffle plate based on the characteristics of the FT1 dynamic drivers. This device allows the entire driver to be positioned parallel to the human ear, breaking up sound convergence and avoiding standing waves. As a result, there is minimal high-frequency attenuation for true HiFi audio quality.

High-Sensitivity Design
The FT1 features a low impedance design of 32Ω and boast acoustic sensitivity metrics of 113dB/Vrms@1kHz. This significantly reduces the demand for driving power, allowing you to effortlessly enjoy excellent sound quality.

Ergonomic, Lightweight Headband
The 3-axis headband allows for free rotation at multiple angles. This design accommodates various head sizes and ensures a snug fit for enhanced comfort.

High-Quality Silver-Plated Copper Cables
The FT1 comes with two headphone cables terminated in 3.5mm single-ended and 4.4mm balanced plugs. Both cables are made using a silver-plated oxygen-free copper base, with 392 wires and 24AWG thickness.

Best closed back under $500

Fiio lately releasing series of headphones with excellent packages (accessories) and this is their showstopper, the BEST.
Clarity, Bass, vocals are outstanding and even the sound stage is great for a closed back and for this price.
Fit is comfortable and light weight. Those ear pads are soft and no issue what so ever for longer listening sessions.
Highly recommend, if anyone are looking for a great pair of closed back or looking for a headphone under $500, just go for it.
BEST.

FiiO FT1 - WELCOME to the dance

This little gem…WOW!…just pure bliss. I could write a detailed and technical review but there has already been full coverage of this headphone. It’s almost always “sold out” and rightfully so. What I have to say is usually the deciding factor on whether a buddy listens to what I say, or just dismisses the critique and carries on with their day. 1st: The timbre is just about near perfect. I love when mids are done right and the FT1 did not disappoint. 2nd: The bass is a huge surprise and has some excellent thump. It plays very well with the mids and treble and I couldn’t be more pleased. 3rd: The treble is present but not overly present…which is a great thing. Many people understand that point. It won’t win the best of soundstage, imaging, resolution, or any other audiophile words we use to describe sound quality; but what it does have is the X-Factor of a well tuned headphone that is worthy every single penny I spent on it.

Surprisingly Great Budget Closed Back!

Pleasantly surprised!! Can’t beat them for the price! Starting to be my go-to for every day closed backs. Great base, not to sibilant with pretty good spatial separation.Not perfect but with a little EQ … wow! Pretty comfortable for my liking. Just really surprised for the price…: can’t beat em!!

These are by far the most amazing headphones for the price. I dont of anything that would come even close. Wow sums it up. I am jamming to Santana Abaxas as I write this. How in the heck are the only selling these for $159.00. Just crazy.

About Bloom, what a fantastic bunch of people. I was chatting with Matthew from bloom, letting him know I was looking for a closed back that I can travel with. I told him I have a DCA E3 that works on my DX340 DAP but that they dont isolate that well and the low end is not that extended. He had suggested the Noir X and the FT1. I had already heard great reviews of the FT1 and for the price I decided to spin the wheel. I feel like I hit 00 jackpot. They are so good, they didnt try to upsell me. Just gave honest advice. I will certainly keep buying from them.

Nice

I like them but I like the open back version a little better! I’ll be sticking open backs from now on, the Hifiman Arya Organic will be my next investment!
