The Museum is where we pay our respects to end-of-life, old, archived, but not forgotten products. This page was made with a lot of love and will live on for posterity. What to say, we're sentimental people. 😔

DESCRIPTION
AN ADVANCED AND PROFOUNDLY UPGRADED VERSION OF THE WIDELY POPULAR FIIO FH5
FiiO balanced armature and dynamic driver hybrid earphones have always been highly popular and among the best-selling earphones owing to the great design and audiophile-grade sound. The all-new candidate of this club is the FiiO FH5s, which is an upgrade to the veteran FH5, featuring innovative enhancements of all aspects of the in-ear monitor including its design, comfort and sound quality.
THE FINE-TUNED ACOUSTIC ARCHITECTURE TAKES CARE OF BASS, TREBLE, AND VOCALS DELIVERING A FULL-RANGE AUDIO EXPERIENCE
The FiiO FH5s is an upgraded variant designed for an immersive music listening experience. The third-gen 12mm beryllium-plated with PU gasket Tesla low-frequency dynamic driver, engineered in the FiiO FH5s offers the highest quality bass response. This driver relies on the firm yet flexible polyurethane polymer, beryllium-plated diaphragm dome and Tesla-capable magnets delivering a deep and controlled bass response. FiiO FH5s have a 6mm beryllium-plated dynamic mid-frequency driver that focuses on the low and mid frequencies. Beryllium-plated diaphragm dynamic drivers deliver rich vocals that make you fall in love with your music. Treble is taken care of by the Knowles TWFK-30017 balanced armature driver, which is placed in the sound tube to be as close to your ear to ensure less high-frequency loss and better extension. All the drivers are tuned to work independently to give you the most accurate representation of the recordings across the frequency spectrum.
TRISHELL ACOUSTIC DESIGN: THE TECHNOLOGY USED IN SUPERCARS NOW IN YOUR IN-EARS
The FiiO FH5s utilise 5-axis CNC machined aluminium-magnesium alloy for their design, which is known as the TRISHELL "sandwich" structural design. To significantly reduce resonance and distortion rear, and front shell bodies are solidly linked together at three points. Exotic supercars with ultra-rigid chassis to enhance performance are the design inspiration for this precise concept. The layered "dragon scales" on the faceplate with open-air mesh guides on the FH5s give it an elegant look. Regardless of the variant you choose, the FH5s have a striking appearance.
BUILT AFTER CONTINUOUSLY WORKING THROUGH USER OPINIONS TO DELIVER THE ABSOLUTE BEST
The two main components of good sound at FiiO have been understanding user opinion data and using excellent materials. FiiO headphones are available in more than 70 countries worldwide, and the company maintains a database of customer feedback that FiiO uses to improve the sound of its headphones. FH5s, an expression of FiiO's best work, was produced as a result of this continually evolving process.
PERSONALISE THE ALREADY EXCELLENT SOUND OF THE SEMI-OPEN DESIGN DELIVERING EXCEPTIONAL SOUNDSTAGE AND IMAGING COUPLED WITH 3 TUNING SWITCHES
FiiO has had remarkable success in developing a line of IEMs that combines the stunning appearance and superb audio quality. When there are multiple drivers at work, seamless performance becomes a challenge. FiiO has put a lot of effort into tuning each driver in FH5s. Each driver in the FiiO FH5s has been meticulously tuned to focus on the low, mid, high, and ultra-high frequencies. The result is a very holographic and airy sound which lets your music breathe and come alive. Three tuning switches for lows, mids, and highs in the FiiO FH5s propose eight exciting ways to listen to your music. Although the FH5s already have a solid sound signature that would adhere to the sonic preferences of audiophiles, it still has room for customisation. You can further fine-tune the sound using tuning switches so that they match your distinct taste. The computer-refined semi-open design of the FH5s works perfectly to balance the air pressure resulting in a better soundstage and imaging with smooth layering and texture. Through computer simulations, the semi-open design at the rear cavity is improved to ensure that the air pressure at the front and rear cavities are balanced. This design approach produces a more natural sound reproduction and pleasant listening experience.
HI-RES AUDIO-CERTIFIED IEMS WITH ERGONOMIC DESIGN AND LITZ TYPE-2 BRAIDED CABLE WITH SWAPPABLE PLUGS
Using the third generation of the ergonomic-curve design, the FiiO FH5s is highly optimised to perfectly fit into the contours of human ears for ultimate user comfort. Designed to satisfy even the most demanding audiophiles, the FH5s is Hi-Res Audio certified. FiiO FH5s are equipped with 4-strand, 120 core, high purity monocrystalline silver-plated copper cable to enhance sound transmission. The extended MMCX connector on this Litz Type 2 braided cable has blue and red markings to help you identify between the right and left earpieces. Additionally, you receive stainless steel twist-lock swappable 2.5, 3.5, and 4.4 audio plugs. This design allows you to pair FH5s to your DAP, DAC & Amp that has balanced outputs making the soundstage even wider and will allow you to push FH5s to their full potential.
BUNDLED WITH A WIDE ARRAY OF ACCESSORIES AND EARPHONE TIPS
The FiiO FH5s come bundled with loads of accessories like swappable plugs, and a carrying case HB5 to protect your IEMs from moisture and dust. A pair of bi-flange, three pairs of vocal eartips, three pairs of bass eartips, three pairs of balanced eartips, and three pairs of foam eartips are among the variety of eartips included with the FH5s. This enables you to customise the sound of the FH5s and get a great snug fit to utilise the FH5s to their fullest extent. A cleaning brush and an MMCX assist tool are also included with the FiiO FH5s so that you may carefully remove the cable.

" As is the case with pretty much all iems with switches, they are just a gimmick.They don’t affect the sound much at all & is more of a way to fine-tune the sound more towards your personal preferences."
