FiiOFT1 32Ω Large Dynamic Driver Headphones with Solid Wood Cups

I am incredibly impressed with the FT1's. Having watched all of the YouTube praise I thought I would try them for myself. The packaging, carry case and accessories (2x cables, adaptor etc) are all high quality. I also have a pair of B&O HX's (roughly £450ish) and the quality of the FT1 case is at least on par.I read a review which mentioned it was tricky to know which cable to attach to which side but looks like FiiO listened as there is now clear L & R on the cable ends as well as inside the ear cups.Being wood, I expected the headphones to be heavy but they are surprisingly light. Not flimsy... just very well made and comfortable. The band adjustment is a little stiff and I am worried that the metal adjuster will mark the leather headband but so far it hasn't/Sound quality is really subjective, but to my ears they sound great. Again comparing to my HX's, the FT1's sound better but appreciate it isn't really fair to compare Bluetooth noise cancelling headphones to wired close backs. When they first arrived I connected to my phone using a cheap ugreen 3.5mm to lightening dongle and tried a couple of streaming services. They sounded best with Apple Music but PRIME Music was also impressive. Spotify even sounded good although I hear their streaming rate is low. I now have them connected to my computer via a Fosi Audio K5 Pro DAC amp and the sound quality took another step up. A fantastic sounding system for less than £200.Overall, I thoroughly recommend these headphones. For the price you can't go wrong.

It's not often a product lives up to the hype, but that's exactly what the FiiO FT1's do! After watching countless reviewers tell me how great these are, I finally took the plunge, as I was looking for a good, closed back pair of headphones, at a reasonable price. I'm pairing these with a FiiO K7, and they sound incredible. As the reviews have stated, there is plenty of bass on offer here, but presented very cleanly, without muddying up the mids (which sound great), and still managing to create an immersive bass impact. Nothing on the treble side sounds harsh, just all fantastically well-tuned. I think immersive is a good way to describe the sound in general - they really pull me in to my music in a way I've not experienced for some time). I'm using these for music and gaming (they excel at gaming too, great imaging with a soundstage that works well if you're into FPS games). Comfort is top notch, I can wear these for long sessions without any fatigue. They are heavier than Sennheiser's (if that's what you're used to), but they spread the weight very well. Build quality and durability will become evident over time, but initial impressions are good, as they are nicely put together with a premium (ish) feel. At this price point, these are a no brainer for anybody looking for a great sounding, comfortable and well built pair of headphones. Clamp force is very light when compared to many Sennheiser and Beyerdynamic headphones. I'm actually preferring these to my DT 900 Pro X's for both sound quality and comfort. Fantastic product, well done FiiO!

Am no expert but I like my music and these sound superb for the money , loud , clear and more than enough bass . Ive been using Sony wh1000xm4 both wired and Bluetooth and although these are just wired with no noise cancelling put them up a few notches and you ain’t hearing no outside noise plus Extremely comfy with big well over the ear cups 😎

I was looking at , headphones around the £200 -250 closed back , detachable cable. Problem is. On line reviews, utube. Makes it harder to decide. You think you decided and you read another review. In the end ,just went for it. What I like is no integrated cables. No tight turns, within the headphone. That was the problem with my old Gemini headphone. Can't by that model,any more. but a very good sounding headphone. Fiio was like putting on ,ear protectors. No gaps around the jaw Deep cushions. What I understand,the two bolts.Just at the base of the band. have been upgraded. on this model.Fiio has now fixed this? The adjustment metal band is, close to the top of,the padded band. Would it damage the look, within use.? Longer cable would be nice, not detached so no problem. I'm using a separate amp .Base, treble, high filter.and loudness. and a separate graphic equaliser.effect button.useing the range. Equaliser did improve the sound.of the headphone. Can I recommend, it's all down to what you have.what gets the best sound,out of the fiio headphones.anyone asked ok.I liked the wood and metal look.it would suit vintage look. first thing I thought ,on opening.band could have been better. Don't spend to long looking,do your head in.

Very well built headphones with plenty of detail,but they do need burning first,and sound better with a headphone amp ,I'm using a fiio k5 .The balanced cable is a nice bonus .Compared to my hd650 ,580 the sound stage is not as wide but they are open back phones but they are a good step up from my sony mdr 1a . I would definitely recommend these headphones for price

Sound quality is wonderful. They are big - so you maybe look daft wearing them - but presume that is because of the larger 60mm drivers. I upgraded to these from the FIIO JadeAudio JT1 - which also sounded wonderful and were lighter and a bit smaller - because they didn't block out any external noise and I wanted to use them in the office. These ones block a lot of sound passively. Very happy. Comes with a good quality (and large) hard carry case and two good quality cables. The JT1 cables had a mic on them btw, these don't.
