About the Product
The FA7 is the first mass-produced, 3D printed quad balanced armature in-ear monitor. This is made possible through a collaboration between FiiO and 3D printing specialists HeyGears, using advanced industrial-grade 3D printers using DLP printing technology with printing resolution up to 25um.

What customers say about "Key Specs"
Fiio FA7 In-Ear Headphones
  • These are very good IEMs. With more treble air and extension, they could be exceptional.
  • General sound impressions were that these were warm, laid back, and jazzy.
  • Sweet and smooth sound. Excellent detail without being too bright with a W shaped sound, and some mid-bass bloat/bleeding.
  • Good volume without amping, clear sound, good bass, vocals, and guitar.
  • These are very accurate and rich. Amazing soundstage.
iBasso IT04 In-Ear Headphones
  • They are very light and the sound is non-fatiguing.
  • Crisp sound at medium and high. Sound is clear, among the best of the price.
  • The sound is very clean, detailed and cohesive across the entire frequency response.
  • These sound great, having a good balance of frequencies across the spectrum.
  • Quality of sound is very clear and by far the most comfortable buds for this price range.
