Yeah. Damn it, now I need to get another pair for a backup.

Was actually thinking whether I should get this or the FH1.... As I already have some of the normal F9s
You may have a try in the local store first if possible.

Best regards

I just got a set of the pro's delivered yesterday and have to commend you on the build quality. These are hands down one of the best quality metal enclosures I've ever seen, and are insanely comfortable.

I find them really lacking in the lower end though with a very week sub bass. Burning in now to see if it makes any difference, but I'd love to see a new model with a big boost in the bottom end for us bass heads, drum and bass and edm fans as I'm in love with everything else about these phones.

They do sound a little better hooked up to your e10k amp but still need a sprinkling more sub bass rumble :wink:

We've had the f9, weve now got the f9 Pro, now we just need the f9 Low :wink:
The last time I auditioned it the bass is think and of course there is sub bass. Hmmm

They kind of did. They’re called the FH5. Although they are definitely bigger, so they may not fit as nicely as the F9’s do.

Make sure to use the big bass tips!
(black/grey exterior and red inner tube)

If still not enough bass for your preferences you might enjoy the FH1 which is bassier/warmer relative to the F9 Series.

Thanks for the heads up!

I ended up flipping them and getting some Oriveti New Primacys which are much more to my sound preference (and havr some killer bass). I also picked up some Campfire Comets - which despite only being a single BA and not being as gutsy on the bottom end I'm actually massively enjoying... more so than I should be really!

I have a question, how much isolation do people get with these?

I have them and using the silicon tips, it seems that I get very little external sound attenuation.

Does one have to use the foam tips to get any significant attenuation?

Where can I get additional ear tips to the F9 (those with dual color: gray with red stem)?

Thanks

You can email FiiO support and ask. I was asked to pay using the Extra Shipping Cost listing on their AliExpress store. Two pairs cost me about $10, with most of that being in shipping.
Yes! The international shipping cost is much higher than the items itself. :frowning2:
Best regards

Thanks
Can you post (send me) the relevant link where I can order those F9 tips?
Dear friend,

Please send email to support@fiio.net about that because we would need to provide a ticket id for you about that. Please remember to inform us the sizes and the quantity of the tips you needed as well. Thanks in advanced!

Best regards

Where can I purchase replacement tips? I can't use AliExpress, as they don't send to my location which is Jersey, channel islands.

I'm only after the large red ones with the small bore.
Dear friend,

You could send email to support@fiio.net about that. As for the problem with Aliexpress, you could write another address and provide your correct address via email instead.

Best regards
