Looking for some ear-tip recommendations for FD5 with the narrow nozzle. I do not use foam or triple flange and the other tips dont seem to fit the narrow nozzle very well. Anyone?
Thanks
Thanks
SpinFit CP800. Using these and love the sound and the fit. The sound is more focused and the FD5 image better now.Looking for some ear-tip recommendations for FD5 with the narrow nozzle. I do not use foam or triple flange and the other tips dont seem to fit the narrow nozzle very well. Anyone?

Don't know about availability in India, and which size will depend on the size of your ear canals, but the red ones work great for me, without the triple-flange ear-rape sensation.Looking for some ear-tip recommendations for FD5 with the narrow nozzle.

Thank you! Westone tips are indeed tough find in India. Will see if I can get a pair. Have ordered Spinfit CP800 meanwhile, based on recommendations here and other sources offline.Don't know about availability in India, and which size will depend on the size of your ear canals, but the red ones work great for me, without the triple-flange ear-rape sensation.

I think the nozzles on Shure universals like the 535 are the same size as the Westones, if that makes it any easier. Etymotics too. Good luck.Thank you! Westone tips are indeed tough find in India.

to unscrew it it is better to keep it where there is the word "born for music"This interchangeable connector is stupid. I just can't unscrew it.
It's connector facing me anti-clockwise right?

Does Bass Elasticity mean Bass Decay?How to choose suitable earphones among FH5S, FD5, EM5 and FA7?
Recently, we updated the successor of the FH5 in our product line of hybrid earphones. Under the circumstances of great improvement in many aspects, including the design, materials, configuration and accessories, the FH5s was priced at 249.99 USD (US market), which was totally beyond your expectation.
So, at this price range, FiiO has four completely different types of earphones- the fresh 2BAs+2DDs hybrid IEMs FH5s (249.99 USD), the collectible-grade single dynamic IEMs FD5 (299.99 USD), the 3D printing 4 balanced armatures IEMs FA7 (299.99 USD) and the open earbuds EM5 (299.99 USD) with a characteristic styling.
I believe that many users may have some questions. Like how to choose the right one among these products at similar prices? And why is the FD5 with just a dynamic driver more expensive than the FH5s with four drivers hybrid? What does FiiO think?
Therefore, we made a table in the form of both graphics and texts to compare the four earphones. From my personal point of view, it's like sports cars. At the same price range, Porsche provided four types of totally different vehicles, the 911 sports car, Cayenne SUV, Taycan and Palamela. They have different positioning to meet different needs, which can not be simply ranked. So do the FH5s, FD5, EM5 and FA7. We should choose the most appropriate one.
The parts of the listening sense in the table are for reference only. The maximum score is 10, which only represents the characteristics under horizontal comparisons among the four types of FiiO earphones. But for sure, some of them are based on scientific evidence. The following are some general rules.
1. Comparison of soundstage: speaker>over-ear>flat-head>in-ear; Semi-open in-ear>Sealed in-ear.
2. The larger the sound tube, the better the bass. The smaller the sound tube, the better the treble. The bass and mids of the dynamic driver are better than that of the balanced armature. Treble extension and resolution of the balanced armature are better than that of the dynamic driver.
3. The harder the dynamic driver diaphragm, the less the split vibration and the smaller the treble distortion.
4. The sound insulation of the flat-head is worse than that of the in-ear, which will thus affect the resolution and bass extension to a certain extent.
