FT1

The FIIO FT1 cups are made from carefully selected FAS-grade American black walnut. 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.

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.

Art of sound
The FIIO FT1, in alignment with its overall acoustic design and high-level listening experience, employs a nanowood fibre composite diaphragm. This diaphragm is composed of carefully selected paper fibres combined with a lightweight PU (polyurethane) suspension gasket. It exhibits excellent high-frequency extension and transient response, resulting in a clean, precise sound with clear imaging tone, and providing you with the unique sweet, rich, and high-density mid-frequency vocals of paper diaphragms. 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 of the “paper” driver translates perfectly into beautiful sound.

Cutting-edge technology and innovative applications
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.

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 Aluminium 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.

Closed-back design
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 in the FT1 effectively reduce ambient noise, including external voices and environmental sounds, by up to 26dB. 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.

U-shaped sound-damping tube for enhanced noise attenuation
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.

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.

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.

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.

10Hz-40kHz ultra-wide frequency response
The FIIO FT1 has a frequency response range of 10Hz to 40kHz, for a studio monitoring-like listening experience. Every last detail comes through cleanly, similar to what you would expect from a professional audio tool.

Lightweight portable headband
To make it more portable and lightweight, the FT1 headband features high-quality steel slides, significantly enhancing the headband’s durability. You will feel the precision and sophistication of the mechanical design every time you adjust the headband. Additionally, compared to similar products, the FT1 offers an extended adjustment range from 0 to 11 notches to accommodate various head sizes. The part of the headband in contact with the head is made of lychee leather material for a soft and comfortable wearing experience.

Breathable fabric earpads
Experience comfortable long listening sessions and say goodbye to stuffiness. The FT1 comes with breathable fabric earpads, featuring a textile material in contact with your skin. The high-density breathable mesh design efficiently dissipates heat buildup between the ear cushions and your ears. The side of the ear cushions is made of protein leather that both looks and feels good.

Dual TRS headphone connectors
The FIIO FT1 adopts the commonly used dual 3.5mm TRS headphone connectors, allowing you to easily change and upgrade to another headphone cable.

Premium headphone storage bag included
Included with the FT1 is a premium headphone storage bag, crafted with the same materials and techniques used by top French brands, offering a refined and stylish appearance, rarely seen in its class but undoubtedly useful for protection.

2 silver-plated oxygen-free copper cables included
The brand-new FT1 comes with two headphone cables – terminated in 3.5mm single-ended and 4.4mm balanced plugs. Both cables are identically made using an oxygen-free copper-plated silver wire base with 392 wires, are of 24AWG thickness, and are 1.5 meters long. This makes the FT1 widely compatible with many audio devices, as you can easily switch between the cables. They produce a transparent yet robust sound, allowing you to fully enjoy quality lossless audio.
