Excellent earbuds - changing to 5 star despite the fit issues which they deserve

EM5 does what earbuds does best sounding analog and open. I am not a fan of IEMs because of fit issues, I always prefer earbuds to IEMs. Earbuds sound very close headphones than any IEM ever does.

EM5 is very well designed, the cable is nice and the changeable connectors is a big plus. Included case and accessories are great but FiiO missed big time by not including silicone donuts and ear hooks which are essential for earbuds fit. I have a couple of earbuds including the ultra cheap and excellent VE Monk Plus which fits better than EM5 for me. I have ordered VE EX Pack for the donuts and ear hooks which FiiO should have included in the pack.

The sound is very organic, thick and natural. The vocals are in your face but the instruments sound far creating that out of your head effect.

The one things that stands out is the BASS which is not a forte for any earbud but FiiO did an excellent job with EM5. The BASS on EM5 is the highlight of the sound. But don't expect IEMs level of bass which reaches very low.

The BASS on EM5 is sufficient which reminds me of good old bookshelf speakers. I do find the mids and highs to be satisfying.

Overall EM5 is an excellent buy. If you are an earbud fan, just go for it.

Hey Sri Rama, thank you so much for this amazing feedback! We are happy to hear that you are loving your new purchase. This will surely help others while considering this product for their next purchase!
