FiiO FT1 – Closed-back sound in real walnut
The FiiO FT1 is a closed-back over-ear for listeners who want warmth and detail without the leak of an open design. A 60mm dynamic driver with a wood-fiber diaphragm sits inside genuine American black walnut cups, and at 32 Ω it runs happily from a phone or a desktop amp. A grown-up first closed-back from FiiO, available at Soundium.
Key Features
- 60mm dynamic drivers: Large drivers move air with authority for deep bass and a spacious, open stage.
- Nanowood fiber diaphragm: A spruce-and-carbon-fiber cone delivers fast transients, rich mids, and natural vocals.
- American black walnut cups: Hand-finished hardwood tames resonance for a clean, lifelike tone.
- Closed-back isolation: Blocks up to 26 dB of outside noise so you stay in the music.
- Easy 32 Ω load: Runs cleanly from phones and dongles, and scales up with a dedicated amp.
- Detachable dual cables: Swap between single-ended and balanced sources in seconds.
Customer Benefits
Whether you are at a desk, in the studio, or on the sofa, the FT1 keeps distractions out and detail in. The closed-back cups isolate without sealing you off from the tone, while the wood-fiber diaphragm keeps vocals and mids honest rather than hyped. A 3-axis adjustable headband and breathable fabric pads spread the 340 g weight, so long sessions stay comfortable. With both 3.5mm and 4.4mm balanced cables in the box, the FT1 fits whatever source you already own.
