FiiO has unveiled the flagship FiiO FT7 planar headphones, which will be available at retail in late 2025. The model marks the culmination of the development of the famous FT1, FT3 and FT5 headphones.
The FiiO FT7 will be the perfect partner for the FiiO K19 headphone amplifier. From the Zebrawood grille to the 106 mm full-size planar drivers, every detail and element of the headphones literally screams quality. The new product’s arsenal includes multi-layer gold and silver precious metal plating technology for improved sound quality and durability, an ultra-thin 1 μm film membrane and 18 high-quality N52 neodymium magnets on each side.
The FiiO FT7 have a sensitivity of 94 dB / mW and weigh 427 grams. Sheepskin and suede ear pads, a single-crystal copper cable cryogenically treated with liquid nitrogen, and a YauLi linen case specially designed for storing the headphones are the icing on the cake. Full specs will be available soon.
