New Definition of Original Flat Head Flagship Feiao EM5 Evaluation
I am a portable audio device player from the 80 s tape walkman walkman. This group of players has a stubborn to almost paranoid preference, that is, no matter what level the current in-ear earplugs have developed, they hope to still have a non-in-ear (flat head) earplug with sound quality that makes people proud. Although in-ear earplugs now account for more than half of the market, flat-headed earplugs still have enough supporters. Unfortunately, these flat-head products can only be used to fight against the in-ear type, which I often use to joke about, that is, their handsome and ugly way of wearing without foreign body feeling, because the sound quality has become more and more difficult to compete with the in-ear type and the middle and high-end in-ear type. To make matters worse, many manufacturers are also satisfied with the development of various configurations of in-ear style and have chosen the thankless camp-...
Feiao EM5 is available.
In fact, I have been encouraging Feiao people not to give up the flat head series and develop an upgraded version of EM series flat head plug for several years since I evaluated Feiao's first generation flat head earplug EM1. Fortunately, James, founder of Feiao, is also a player of the Walkman era and has the same paranoid love for flat-headed plugs as I do, and Feiao has never given up this series. The market is very cruel. The development of the company cannot rely on the likes of several leaders to give up or develop a certain product, but Feiao chose feelings and chose the research and development of a very risky product. In a way, this is a blessing for audio device players!

I actually learned a message very early, that is, the appearance of EM5 will be very bold and different. But when I first saw the product map, its appearance still surprised me. This asymmetrical design of a single earphone is not determined without strong determination. The addition of the curved low-frequency flute tube makes the product a sufficient challenge in appearance and processing-then choosing the latest 3D printing technology for product packaging has become an unexpected choice. The actual product also does have all the visual and physical advantages brought by 3D printing. The product is integrated without any abrupt and connecting gap. The resin material makes it crystal clear as jade and light as swallow. The official description is that it is semi-transparent colored glaze black, but the actual appearance is a hint of turquoise, which is quite different in common earplug products.
-If the data is correct, Feiao EM5 should also be the first flat-head earplug to be mass produced using 3D printing technology.
, many people guessed that EM5 would become a flat plug that supports wire change, but the final product was quite surprising. It chose a replaceable plug design instead of a replaceable cable design. It has a 3.5mm single-ended hand and 2.5/4.4mm balanced plug built in. However, I am a little depressed that all three plugs are elbows.! @#￥% multi-plug design makes the product more playable and practical, which is still commendable.
EM5 comes with up to 18 sponge sleeves. Sponges are consumables as far as possible. These 18 sets of covers are enough for players to use for several years.
-- If the data is correct, Feiao EM5 should be the first flat-headed earplug on the market that supports replaceable plugs.

for an earplug, no matter how avant-garde its modeling structure and workmanship are, it is its sound quality that ultimately determines its value. Can the sound quality performance of Feiao EM5 fulfill the dreams of many flat-headed fans and match the positioning of its flat-headed flagship?
after several days of close testing and use, my answer is: Positive!
evaluation are Feiao's M9 and Meizu 16s pro + Feiao BTR5 working in LDAC coding. Before, I admitted that I was a staunch supporter of flat-headed earplugs. At ordinary times, there were several flat-headed plugs from various families, and each plug would take turns to listen to them. Therefore, I had a relative "value" in my heart for their performance ". But what impressed me most about the opening of EM5 is the permeability of the sound. This is a sound that is extremely difficult to hear on the flat-headed plug, a very rich overtone effect. Whether it's Jiangyang Zhuoma's low-back, mellow and long, or Gafigar's slender and gentle, or Li Mengyao's slightly magnetic and rough singing, EM5 can be expressed very accurately.
-- If the data is correct, Feiao EM5 should be the first flat-headed earplug on the market with beryllium diaphragm.
has previously evaluated Feiao's first beryllium-plated diaphragm using middle and low-end earplugs FD1(https://weibo.com/ttarticle/p/show?id=2309404517198587625703#_0). Its strong high-frequency expressiveness is impressive. The application of beryllium-plated diaphragm on EM5 also makes EM5 perform quite well at high frequencies. The crisp and elastic and grainy high frequency of the guitar seems to be in the ear of the player. In order to avoid possible psychological effects, I used M9 to play the same song repeatedly, comparing the performance of EM5 and several other flat-head plugs respectively, including Huawei's, Vivo's, OPPO's, rambler's, Meizu's, and Feiao's EM1. The contrast result is very clear. EM5 easily wins in terms of high-frequency texture and elasticity, musical level explanation and calmness.
but perhaps this comparison is not fair, after all, the price of these flat plugs is only one tenth or even 1/20 of EM5. However, this still easily highlights the reality that the voice of EM5 is not what ordinary powder can expect.
I don't have exact data to prove my guess, I estimate that the sound performance of EM5 is closely related to the well-priced wire it uses (four strands of 120-core litz structure pure silver wire). By the way, this sterling silver wire is very soft, folding is also very high, and the hand feel is very different from the FH3 introduced at the same time. However, it depends on the individual's preference.
EM5 undoubtedly supplements the performance of EM5, a flat-head plug, in low frequency. It has high low frequency density, good elasticity, and good melody. However, compared with the FH3 of its own in-ear one-circle two-iron in the same period, it still lacks low-frequency sense and appeal. This is not difficult to understand, after all, EM5 is an open non-in-ear earplug, low-frequency expressiveness is not inherently strong. However, the low frequency performance of EM5 is not enough to be a lagging short board. In fact, the low frequency performance of EM5 is better than that of some high-end pure iron in-ear low frequencies in my impression.
* *
in the in-ear earplug market is getting bigger and bigger and the technology is becoming more and more mature today, it undoubtedly takes a lot of courage to insist on making a flat-head plug with a flagship configuration. After all, the flat-headed plug can leave a large number of in-ear supporters speechless just by saying "I can wear it and listen and sleep.
to be fair, using EM5 to listen to music on a crowded and noisy subway or bus is a waste of this flat-head flagship. In fact, I insist that no matter what equipment you use, music is only suitable for enjoying in a quiet environment, unless you are satisfied with listening to it. In the dead of night, with a high-quality audio source player, Feiao EM5 can bring you pure musical pleasure with zero foreign body sensation-isn't this the original intention of Feiao EM5?
