It's really interesting that it has an estat on/off switch.

what price in europe and where to order?

So for anyone whose hearing above 15 kHz is limited this is effectively $800 for a 1x BA 1x DD IEM?

By the way, I don't understand why some online stores 800$, the official price is 5000 yuan, and this is not 800$.
But in general, headphones are very controversial, even for 650$. if 1DD+4BA+4EST were installed there, then it would be an interesting option. it would be a top even for 1000$... and so it looks like an unfinished product. although it is clear that this is only the first product with EST from FiiO. I was really looking forward to this from FiiO, but there are a lot of questions, from the simple appearance to the price. Looking at the FX15, I don't see a high-end product, unlike FH9.

for example on jd.com and tmall.com from there you need to buy through intermediaries. but their services cost around 15$.
prices for the Chinese market and the rest of the world do not differ. this is the first time I have seen such a thing that the price for Europe is so overpriced. I suspect that some stores want to earn more. you need to wait for the appearance of FX15 in the official FiiO store on Aliexpress.
most likely the price of 700 euros will be the official price for Europe. but 800$ for the US market does not exist such a price. the price should also be 700$.

It’s a 5-series product, so it’s not TOTL. The throne still belongs to FH9.

Anything with “5” in FiiO’s product is the middle of the line. They can go higher (7) and lower (3). The number “1” is reversed for entry level. The “9” is the best of the best that FiiO believes they can do at a time. Right now, there is only FH9. There was a FA9, but I think it is going to be replaced this year.

You're right. I forgot about this moment. well, in that case, the more they are not interesting to me. it's a pity that a full-fledged top will have to wait for a very long time, in the best cases next summer, if they plan it at all... FX15 alas, well, I don't like it either in appearance or in driver configuration, they are too simple. and it's also unclear to me why they made the function of disabling EST drivers, what kind of fool would turn them off, this is the main feature of these headphones. if users turn off the EST drivers, it will be headphones for 100$)))
FA9 by the way, yes, they will soon be replaced by FA19 with 10BA drivers and a price of 1000$, this is an interesting model.
