Replaceable Cables
A pair of headphones with a replaceable cable has many benefits, and one of them is if the connecting cable has a problem, it doesn’t mean that you have to buy a new one. If the connecting cable gets pulled or damaged, you can replace it and keep using your good-old headphones or IEMs. This way, your headphones will be protected and will last longer. With the advancements in cable manufacturing, you now get a variety of replacement cables with various termination options, lengths and quality.

Open-Back Design
Headphones with an open-back design, allow air to pass through the earcups. This means that Open-Backs do not block any noise from around you, as closed-backs do, and music being heard will also leak outside to people around you. So they can only be heard in a quiet environment.
However, Open-back headphones do sound more natural and open. Open-back headphones create a feeling of space, presenting audio as if you are sitting at a live concert. Audiophiles swear by open-back headphones, and they sound quite different to closed-backs.
These headphones are perfect for critical listening sessions, mixing and mastering music. They have an accurate soundstage presentation and precise imaging.

DESCRIPTION
PRESENTING THE BEST-IN-CLASS OVER-EAR HEADPHONE - THE FT3
FiiO has ventured into the full-sized headphone market with its latest offering, the FT3. These over-ear headphones are equipped with a 60mm dynamic driver on each side, ensuring exceptional audio performance. Notably, the FT3 boasts an LCP aluminium metal plated + an aluminium metal diaphragm, enhancing its ability to deliver high-fidelity sound. What sets these headphones apart is their 3-way swivelling ear cups and semi-open back design, with drivers thoughtfully angled directly in front of the listener's ears. This positioning minimises unwanted sound reflections, resulting in superior sonic quality. Discover a new dimension of music with the all-new FT3, now available in two variants: 350 Ohm and 32 Ohm.
FEATURES A 60MM LARGE DYNAMIC DRIVER THAT DELIVERS BRAIN-MELTING SONIC PERFORMANCE
FiiO has featured a large 60mm dynamic driver unit in the FT3. The FT3's dynamic driver also has other benefits. For example, due to its large size, the diaphragm is capable of bearing higher output power, leading to less distortion. Also, the driver is capable of producing lower frequencies for a more impactful, textured and richer bass. FiiO, after extensive research, has chosen the LCP aluminium metal plated + an aluminium metal diaphragm for its exceptional sonic characteristics. The diaphragm of the FT3 is made of aluminium metal, which is both highly sturdy and lightweight compared to other diaphragm materials. The FiiO FT3 driver is less prone to breakup and thus nonlinear distortion while having an extremely extended frequency response and improved soundstage. FiiO FT3 promises to deliver a brain-melting sonic performance that will undoubtedly surprise you in every manner.
ULTIMATE FUSION OF COPPER-CLAD ALUMINIUM VOICE COIL AND MAGNETIC CIRCUITRY
The FiiO FT3 was designed with great sound as the primary goal. The voice coil is made of ultra-fine Japanese copper-clad aluminium with 0.035mm thick in diameter. This finer voice coil allows the driver to better and more quickly reproduce signals and has anti-interference capabilities allowing for thunderous dynamics across a wide frequency response range. The FT3 hosts powerful N52 neodymium magnets for optimum sound quality. These magnets have been arranged in an asymmetrical internal and external magnetic circuit system. The magnetic circuit balances the movement of the voice coil and diaphragm when they begin to move during sound reproduction, particularly during significant dynamic changes. This design consideration makes it possible to use magnetic energy more effectively and to have better control over the movement of the voice coil.
ENTER THE TEMPLE OF PURE ACOUSTICAL JOY WITH AN OPEN-BACK DESIGN
The FiiO FT3 features an open-back design that reduces unwanted vibrations and resonances and results in a larger soundstage. The result is that details in the music come through more clearly and naturally in a wide open soundstage, just as if you were listening to a live performance. The open-back design features a hollowed-out mesh to not only further reduce the weight for greater listening comfort but also to fully unleash the capabilities of its driver in a more open environment. Enter the temple of pure acoustical joy with the brand-new FT3!
ANGLED DRIVERS REDUCE UNWANTED REFLECTIONS FOR INCREDIBLE FIDELITY
The FiiO FT3's driver is placed at an angle to be parallel to the ear when worn, which helps reduce high-frequency response caused by the sound waves hitting the contour of the ear and not entering it. Angled drivers can also minimise unwanted reflections caused by the shell of the headphone that would cause standing waves and reduce frequency response distortion. Additionally, towards the rear of the FT3's shell is a reflective tip that is specifically designed to direct sound waves produced by the driver to prevent unwanted reflections from interfering with each other, to both further minimise sound flaws and reduce unwanted frequency response artefacts.
OPTIMUM COMFORT WITH A LIGHTWEIGHT HOLLOW MESH DESIGN
The exterior of the FT3 is made entirely of aluminium alloy that not only feels luxurious to the touch but is also highly rigid yet lightweight. This design gives the FT3 the perfect combination of being comfortable and durable enough to withstand accidental bumps and scratches. The FT3's design begins with hexagonal elements as its base, and when combined with how open-back headphones usually look. This gives off a bold sci-fi appearance. The FT3 has undergone much-fit testing in FiiO Labs, and the 3-axis swivelling design is one result of that testing. The 3-axis swivelling design was specifically made so that the FT3 could better fit most people for improved comfort and better seal to maximise sound quality.
BUNDLED WITH SILVER PLATED MONOCRYSTALLINE COPPER CABLE WITH 4 SWAPPABLE PLUGS AND ACCESSORIES
FiiO has included a high-quality 392 wires high purity silver-plated monocrystalline copper cable which compliments the sonic characteristics of the FT3. The cable comes with four swappable audio 3.5mm/4.4mm swappable plugs, a 3.5mm to 6.35mm adapter, and a 4.4mm to XLR-4 Balanced adapter for easy connectivity with your Balanced and Single-Ended sources. FiiO has included two sets of earpads with the FT3. Each earpad has its sonic benefits. The Suede earpads have a Balanced sound and enhanced ambience adding an overall true-to-life experience. The Protein leather earpads offer clear sound, a large soundstage, and a highly detailed response across the frequency spectrum. Choose the ear pad depending on your sonic taste. The FT3 comes with a leather carrying case that offers complete protection for your headphones in a compact, opulent container.

Customer Reviews
The title describes my impressions of the FiiO FT3. I had purchased this as a high-impedance headphone to try out on another recent purchase Xduoo TA-26. The TA-26 had elevated the sound of my HD 650 considerably - and the FT3 appeared to be the only contender (impedance-wise) within my budget. I was greatly impressed. I did A/B testing (vis-a-vis the HD 650) across multiple albums from artists such as Willie Dixon, Kris Kristofferson, Tom Waits, Dusty Springfield and Neil Young. Sound from the FT3 was airier, instrument separation was better, detail retrieval was better - compared to the HD 650. It reminded me of the Sundara - but a more full-bodied one. In all cases BUT ONE - the FT3 outperformed the HD 650 in my opinion. The one case where the HD 650 was ahead was Greatest Hits by Neil Young. Tracks from this album sounded tad brighter on the FT3. In conclusion - FiiO has come frightfully close to dethroning the venerated HD 650 - and might even do so for some with a different music library. I eagerly look forward to future iterations of this headphone - which I hope will cover the ground that presently remains between the FT3 and the 650.
Great review! Thanks for taking the time to write it. We're glad to hear that our product has helped you improve your sound quality.
Great build, great flat, extended, fast , transparent yet refined headphones which sounds incredibly good even with mobile phones and portable sources. Bass extends deep so combined with very good sensitivity and 350ohm it sounds lot bigger than it should, even with low output sources. With dedicated amps it is literally your end game set up. Supplied cable is very good but very long. You can use cables of hifiman he 400se too. Best part is the supplied case and
replaceable connectors which get you covered for all situations. It sounds surprisingly speaker like giving you a cohesive soundstage without any hole in between. With such high traits it competes with the league of hd800, focals and other high end planars, courtesy the latest tech used in diaphragm and damping design. Frequency response is extremely closely matched to harman curve, making it suitable for every type of music. No need for eq. Packinging is very very robust and well designed too. All in all great headphones at very attractive price.
Hey Kk, Thank you so much for the positive feedback! It means a lot to us. We are so happy to hear that you are loving our products and services.
This is my first audiophile grade headphones. The build quality is marvellous, choice of materials is commendable, packaging includes all the accessories you can think off. The most important aspect is sound quality, I loved it. Since I don't have other products to compare, am saying my personal first time experience. Thanks to headphone zone, I got an amazing deal on black friday sale. I was confused between 320 ohms version. But wanted a more convenient one to use with mobile phone and laptop, so fixed on 32 ohms model. Another advantage of this model is that it comes with a more portable size cable unlike 320 ohms model. I also considered Meze classic 99. But I being a fan of Fiio and own Fiio R7, and SP3 and wanted to have the complete line up , and for that I am Happy. I think you can compare quality of Fiio products to that of Apple. So much perfection even in packaging!
Hey anil, thank you so much for the amazing feedback! It means a lot to us. We are so happy to hear that you are loving our products and services.
Right from the packaging it was clear that no corners were cut (pun intended) when the box arrived in another postage box also provided by the manufacturer having plastic protectors to shield the corners from damage.
Also there are a lot of things going on in the box as well, a set of pleather pads is provided in addition to the suede ones that come installed on the headphones. I did not use the headphones for a significant duration with the suede pads and switched them for the pleather having watched reviews elsewhere that the pleather pads are better for clarity etc. But the changing of the pads did prove to be a nervous couple of minutes due to the possibility of damage though they were subsequently changed without issues. It does take some effort and care though.
To speak about the performance, the quality is indeed excellent and the details clearly audible. Even the low end rumbles were heard without any EQ. There is also good focus on the vocals contrary to other reviews that i watched before going for these. The sound is also natural but that is a general characteristic of open backs. I did not test with any tracks for the sake of doing so but with songs that I would hear otherwise. There seems to be a general consensus that the suede pads result in a slightly more bassy and a bit muddy sound though I didn’t verify this.
Ifi Hip Dac 3 was used to power the headphones via the 4.4 mm output and there was no shortfall in power, impedance being considerable at 350 ohms.
The build quality is very good and almost everything is metal, though the cups are spring loaded, which makes it a point of observation as to how long the mechanism holds up.
The headphones certainly feel a bit bulky in no small part due to the metallic build. However this does not take away from the comfort and the headphones do not clamp the head very tightly and feel light on the head upon wearing them.
Finally, the case provided, and other accessories and connectors all are well built. You also get a braided 3m long cable, which may be a slight nuisance for some, but at least it doesn’t feel substandard.
Everything considered, this was a kind of a risky buy as these are my first serious pair of headphones, from a brand that has not launched many headphones and no full sized headphones. But the package feels complete with great sounding headphones and no need to purchase anything additional or replace stock parts. I am happy with this purchase.
