FIIO Closed-Back Headphones 

Sound of nature American black walnut solid-wood cups

The FIIO FT1 cups are made from carefully selected FAS-grade American black walnut [1]. The wood’s smooth grain unique to each piece and delicate texture truly showcase its natural beauty. This highly dense solid wood also helps to reduce cavity resonance effectively and minimizes standing waves.

[1] American black walnut, originating from high-latitude regions in North America, is renowned for its beautiful grain and smooth, delicate texture. FAS grade is the highest quality wood and is commonly used in luxury products such as yachts, high-end cars, and custom furniture. It is a relatively rare, precious wood.

Sound moves according to you 3-axis adaptive headband

The FT1 inherits the excellent ergonomic design of the FIIO FT series. The 3-axis adaptive headband allows for free rotation at multiple angles. This design accommodates various head sizes and ensures a snug fit on the head for enhanced comfort and minimal sound leakage.

Endless possibilities, thanks to a solid foundation 60mm large dynamic driver

The FIIO FT1 features a newly developed second-generation 60mm large dynamic driver, meticulously designed specifically for FIIO’s first closed-back over-ear headphones. 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 lower low-frequency resonance points, allowing for deeper bass, dynamic sound, and an overall authoritative sound.

Nanowood fiber composite diaphragm

The FIIO FT1’s diaphragm primarily consists of carefully selected wood fibers, based on 90-year-old spruce wood from Northern Europe, which 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. The diaphragm then undergoes another round of baking and molding, resulting in a final thickness of approximately 0.1mm, lightweight and tough. 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, and enhancing low-frequency elasticity, and strengthening the density of vocals from the source of the sound, thus resulting in warm, lush vocals.

The FIIO FT1, in alignment with its overall acoustic design and high-level listening experience, employs a nanowood fiber composite diaphragm [2]. This diaphragm is composed of carefully selected wood fibers combined with a lightweight PU (polyurethane) suspension gasket. It exhibits excellent high-frequency extension and transient response, resulting in clean, precise sound with clear imaging tone, and providing you with unique sweet, rich, and high-density mid-frequency vocals. This driver works in harmony with the FT1’s other acoustic design elements for a specially-tuned frequency response for a pure and pleasant sonic experience. It is as if the elegant aesthetics were translated perfectly into beautiful sound.

Art of sound

[2] The FIIO FT1’s nanowood fiber diaphragm draws inspiration from the acoustic principles of paper cone speakers. They possess unique characteristics - warm tonality, delicate emotion, and enduring appeal - that other acoustic materials lack. It’s no wonder that paper diaphragms are still favored for use in high-end audio products.

The FIIO FT1, as the first  closed-back  over-ear  headphones  from FIIO, 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 optimized and 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 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.

Lighter, stronger Ultra-fine 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, more comfortable sound. Each individual wire core in the CCAW coil has a diameter of approximately 0.035mm, as thin as a hair. Additionally, the FT1’s voice coil frame employs lightweight KSV (Kapton), which also helps to significantly reduce the overall diaphragm mass. The result is enhanced response speed and minimized reverberation.

The FT1, as FIIO’s first closed-back over-ear headphones, incorporates a variety of features that specifically enhance the closed-back listening experience. A series of sound insulation components[3] in the FT1 effectively reduce ambient noise, including external voices and environmental sounds, by up to 26dB[4]. Whether you’re commuting, editing recordings, working in an office, or gaming, the FT1 allows you to immerse yourself in a high-fidelity audio world. It is a truly great-sounding, all-rounder set of headphones.

The U-shaped sound damping tube specifically developed for the FIIO FT1 not only 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.

Ear-parallel design Conical baffle plate

Striving for excellent sound has always been the essence of HiFi. The development team, based on the characteristics of the FT1 dynamic drivers, designed a conical baffle plate for it. 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 truly HiFi audio quality.

Unlock great sound, anytime anywhere 32Ω high-sensitivity design

The FIIO FT1 aims to provide users with a high-quality HiFi experience across various usage scenarios. To achieve this, the FT1 features a low impedance design of 32Ω and boasts acoustic sensitivity metrics of 113dB/Vrms@1kHz (equivalent to 98dB/mW@1kHz). This significantly reduces the demand for driving power, allowing you to effortlessly enjoy excellent sound quality.
