Live up to explore the possibility of sounds. FiiO once again made an upgrade to the hybrid-driver architecture.
The #2 Balanced Armatures 2 Dynamic Drivers IEMs FH5s# takes the lead to be the first upgrade model.
Why would it take a 2BA+2DD hybrid architecture?
What are the strengths and improvements?
On April 26th, thoughts and efforts behind the all-new architecture of the FH5s will be completely exposed.
Let's stay tuned for the FiiO 2021 New Earphones Online Launch Event.

Sorry to be a complete boring jobsworth I know English is not your first language, but this might help. If you're going to use a hyphen, then it should be used in conjunction with, "hybrid-driver" and not "brand-new." (No offence intended, not trying to be a smart-ass)

Generally, hyphens that come before a noun modify an act into a single idea. This is called a compound adjective. (God, the English language sucks.)

Don't panic though, unhyphenated words won't make the IEM sound any worse.

Can a Sunday morning get more exciting?

In terms of sound tuning, FiiO has accumulated a large number of user opinions and data around the world.
We have already realized it is solidified materials and pro-grade configurations that achieve a good sound.
FiiO's earphones have gone through repeat trials and iteration to achieve great improvements, among which the strengths have been applied to generations of products.
So, what exactly can be considered as a good sound?
And what are the tuning standards of the FiiO's #2 Balanced Armatures 2 Dynamic Drivers IEMs FH5s#?
On April 26th, at the #FiiO 2021 New Earphones Online Launch Event#, we will share our considerations behind the sound tuning of FiiO earphones.

2020 was an extraordinary year for all of us in the world. We FiiO have conquered all the difficulties to continuously release a lot of excellent products, including the FA9, FD1, FW1, EM5, FH3 and FD5, making up for regrets over the past year with rich results. Before releasing the newbie FH5s, let's first make a review of the crucial and significant earphones in the FiiO family, that is the FH5.

The FH5s inherited stereo textured designs of the FiiO series of earphones. Inspired by "dragon scales", the distinct lines coupled with rigid aluminum-magnesium alloy show a sense of beauty while indicating the spirit of persistence and strong willpower. In terms of its color, two of them, Black and Gold, Silver and Gold, eventually became the winners after going through several rounds of trials. Black and Gold, the representative of luxuriousness and elegance, shows the character of maturity and reliability. Silver and Gold, the representative of energy and youth, shows a character of positiveness and enthusiasm.

To further understand the thoughts and considerations behind the FiiO earphones, we have invited the ID designer of the FH5s to give us some explanations. How can the FH5s look so attractive while meeting the acoustic needs? This video would help you know more about the FH5s.

Next, we will come to the acoustic design of the FH5s. Its last generation, the FH5 was equipped with 1 dynamic driver+3 balanced armatures. This time, the FH5s adopts a brand new 2+2 architecture, ie. 2 dynamic drivers +2 Knowles balanced armatures. In terms of low frequencies, a large 12mm beryllium-plated+PU gasket dynamic driver is used to replace the 10mm compound driver in the original FH5. In terms of mid frequencies, a 6mm full beryllium-plated dynamic driver is used to replace the original balanced armature driver. In terms of high frequencies, the time-tested Knowles 30017 BA is used. The participation of the new dynamic driver not only achieves a wider soundstage, but also creates a better sense of atmosphere and truly envelops you into the music! The dual dynamic driver setup connects the mids to bass and highs together more smoothly and coherently, making the overall sound quality reach a new level.

Is Gen Z actually the main purchaser of mid-fi IEMs?
