FiiO FD5 IEM Review - Soundstage King

In some ways FD5 awoke some distant memories when I was listening to the single driver Sennheiser IE800 for the first time. Nobody believed single driver IEMs could sound as good as top-of-the-line multi-driver IEMs would, until Sennheiser proved everybody’s wrong some 9 years ago. FD5 stomped over many pricier IEMs by offering higher levels of detail, a lower distortion and a speedier diaphragm recovery. Its soundstaging capabilities are also up there with the nicest IEMs I’ve experienced thus far. It’s V-shaped tuning strictly follows the Harman curve that might not be to everybody’s liking. I find it unique and fresh sounding, with an engaging sound signature attached. Any headphone jack would sound good with them, but if you want to squeeze the best out of them, check their BTR5 or M11 PRO which would perform flawless. It is my pleasure to recommend the FD5 as a great sounding and great measuring IEM at quite an affordable price.
