Today I had a listening session between the Fiio Fa7 and fh5 and I compared the both with my jvc fw01.
I love my jvc sound wise, but I can’t get the right fit for it. So I want to look for something over the ear, which is really comfortable.
So I started with the FA7. I put my own spinfit 145 on them, put them in my ear and boom, Instant love for the fit. The are fantastic. Than the sound.... which was a little disappointing. The bass, especially the sub bass. I almost couldn’t hear or feel it. And than the mid bass, it was tight and fast, but a bit messy. I tinkered a bit with the eq to get it better. And that helped. The rest of the spectrum sounded fine, but a bit narrow.
I didn’t think them bad, but not wat I’m really looking for.
So I switched to the fh5. Put the spinfit on. Well, the fit was only ok. And after 10 min my ears got a bit irritated. So the fit was not nearly as good as the fa7. Than the sound. I got back the bass
, but I don’t know. They are not as fun as my jvc. They don’t have that wide stage and that full sound signature.
My guess is that hybrids are the way for me. So I’m looking for something as comfortable as the Fiio fa7 with the sound of the jvc fw01, or a combination of the fa7 and fh5.
I listen to
Hans Zimmer
Soundtracks
EDM - trance
Hiphop
Pop
Can you guys give me some tips?
