FiiO FT1 headphones with 60mm diaphragm

.

The FIIO FT1 cups are made from carefully selected FAS-grade American black walnut. The wood's smooth grain, unique to each piece, and fine texture fully showcase its natural beauty. This very dense solid wood also helps to effectively reduce cavity resonances and minimize standing waves.

60mm Large Dynamic Driver

The FIIO FT1 features a newly developed second-generation 60mm large dynamic driver, specially designed for FIIO's first closed-back over-ear headphone. The larger-than-average driver improves energy conversion efficiency and provides a solid foundation for powerful bass. In addition, the larger size of the driver results in lower resonance points at low frequencies, enabling deeper bass, dynamic sound, and an overall authoritative sound.

Nanofiber Composite Diaphragm - Papermaking Technology and Art of Sound

The FIIO FT1's diaphragm is mainly made of carefully selected paper wood fibers based on 90-year-old spruce wood from Northern Europe. European spruce is a premium raw material for musical instruments and fiber products, known for its clear and natural sound. Mature Northern European spruce wood undergoes a series of processes including soaking, cooking and beating to produce a specific pulp. To meet the acoustic resilience requirements, a certain proportion of carbon fiber material is added. The diaphragm is then fired and shaped in another round, so that it finally reaches a thickness of about 0.1mm, is lightweight and durable. To fully exploit the acoustic performance of nano wood fibers, a lightweight PU material with high internal resistance is used for the suspension gasket, which improves the compliance of the diaphragm and increases the elasticity in the low frequency range, thereby enhancing the density of the voices from the sound source, resulting in warm, rich voices.

FIIO FT1 uses a nano wood fiber diaphragm in accordance with its overall acoustic concept and high-quality listening experience.

This diaphragm is made of carefully selected paper fiber combined with a lightweight PU (polyurethane) suspension gasket. It features excellent high frequency extension and transient response, resulting in clean, precise sound with clear imaging, giving you the unique sweet, rich and dense midrange vocals of paper diaphragms. This driver works harmoniously with the FT1's other acoustic design elements to achieve a specially tuned frequency response for a pure and pleasant sound experience. It's as if the elegant aesthetics of the "paper" driver are perfectly translated into beautiful sound.

Cutting-edge technology and innovative applications FIIO's first closed-back over-ear headphone, the FIIO FT1 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 specially optimized and tuned. Compared to typical similarly sized diaphragms, the W-shaped diaphragm achieves a 25.8% larger effective vibration area, allowing it to store more energy reserves. The FT1's diaphragm with a hard dome and a compliant suspension gasket allows the 25mm voice coil to directly drive the stiffer dome region. This setup minimizes vibration losses between the different materials and reduces distortion caused by driver breakup, allowing the FT1 to deliver a more refined sound.

Ultra-fine Japanese CCAW voice coil

To ensure robust and high-quality sound, the FIIO FT1 uses a specially imported Japanese ultra-fine CCAW (Copper-Clad Aluminum Wire) voice coil with a diameter of up to 25mm. Longer voice coil copper wire can directly improve the transducer efficiency and drive capacity, resulting in better transient response and purer, more pleasant sound. Each individual wire core in the CCAW coil has a diameter of approximately 0.035mm, making it as thin as a hair. In addition, the FT1's voice coil frame is made of lightweight KSV (Kapton), which also contributes to a significant reduction in overall diaphragm mass. The result is improved response speed and minimized reverberation.

Closed-back design

The FT1 is FIIO's first closed-back over-ear headphone and comes with a number of features specifically designed to enhance the closed-back listening experience. A series of sound-isolating components in the FT1 effectively reduce ambient noise, including external voices and ambient noise, by up to 26dB. Whether you're commuting, editing recordings, working in the office, or gaming, the FT1 lets you immerse yourself in a high-fidelity audio world. It's a truly great-sounding all-rounder headphone.
