High-end audio experts FiiO have unveiled a new set of flagship balanced armature in-ear monitors (IEMs) with a seriously impressive specification that would rival a lot of the best wireless earbuds if it weren't for the faintly frightening price tag. The new FiiO FA19s are serious IEMs for serious music people.
The FA19 boast a massive 10 balanced armature drivers per ear, consisting of four Custom Knowles bass balanced armature drivers, two Knowles ED mid balanced armature drivers and four Knowles SWFK treble balanced armature drivers. Those custom bass drivers are the result of "hundreds of hours of listening and careful tuning of the IEMs' frequency response curve" and have been designed to improve airflow to deliver a very detailed and deep low-end experience.
