FiiO FA19 review: 10-driver IEMs are glorious overkill

The FA19 manages to be the best of both worlds. It has the technical brilliance and accuracy of a balanced armature earphone, with the more engaging bass response of a dynamic driver model. There’s a level of clarity here that lesser IEMs simply can’t match, in sharp-looking shells that are very comfortable to wear. The vented design also helps prevent pressure built-up during long listening sessions. An unparalleled ear tip selection guarantees you’ll find the perfect fit eventually, and the rest of the package is as comprehensive as it gets.
