Swift as the wind, with a thunderous impact 10 Knowles BA design
The FIIO FA19 is designed based on both science and actual listening tests. For the FA19 we settled on using these drivers per ear: 4 custom Knowles bass BA drivers, 2 Knowles ED mid BA drivers, and 4 Knowles SWFK treble BA drivers.
Having more drivers in an IEM does provide certain advantages. It significantly increases the energy density within a given frequency range, resulting in more detail reproduced. This is especially apparent during dynamic audio passages, where more drivers are better able to handle the nuances present, ensuring that the resulting sound is not compressed. And thus, the IEM is better able to faithfully reproduce the original sound.
When tuning IEMs, it is important that there are ample energy reserves from the drivers so that the engineers have enough to work with to achieve their sound goals. This may simply not be possible with fewer drivers. Thus the FA19 employs ten outstanding BA drivers. And the physical + electronic three-way crossover accurately segments different drivers working on different frequency ranges, resulting in a clear, reference monitor-like sound quality.
The FA19 is an IEM that reaches the heights of sound quality with a thunderous impact, being able to faithfully reproduce every last single audio detail.
Rediscovering the essence of bass, Custom Knowles · enhanced bass BA drivers
FIIO collaborated closely with Knowles to create a custom bass BA driver. By improving the airflow throughput of this driver, we enhance its overall energy. Additionally, the FA19 uses four of these custom drivers per channel, further ensuring there are enough drivers to produce detailed and powerful bass. The result is truly robust, impactful bass.
Don't follow the crowd, stand out from it Negative feedback bass enhancement system
With four custom enhanced bass balanced armature drivers per channel developed by FIIO in collaboration with Knowles, the FA19 boasts ample bass. Engineers creatively made use of the precise DLP 3D printing technology to create a shell that helps to guide this low-frequency energy into the earphone's rear cavity, effectively lowering the resonant frequency there - essentially a negative feedback bass enhancement system. The result is a bass that reaches extremely deep, uncommon among IEMs of its class.
Furthermore, this ensures that the front cavity of the earphone is adequately vented, effectively preventing wearing discomfort caused by excessive pressure in the earphone's front cavity. Thus this negative feedback system also improves both wearing comfort and soundstage size, so that the wearing experience is not sacrificed in the pursuit of high-fidelity sound.
Approaching frequencies with surgical precision Rubycon audiophile-grade crossover capacitors
Truly be immersed with each striking musical note thanks to a precise crossover. The FA19 employs audiophile grade film capacitors as its electronic crossover components, which boast exceptional precision. While typical resistor used for crossovers have an error tolerance of around 1%, the FA19's resistors have an impressively low error tolerance of 0.1%. Thus, compared to ordinary ceramic capacitors, the FA19 not only attains more accurate crossover points but also features enhanced high-frequency resolution without sacrificing tonal finesse.
