I purchased mine for gaming, and I will admit they out perform every "gaming headset" I've used in the past. My only complaint is, if you wish to use them for music, I'd recommend something easily. They have great balance and detail to the audio, but when listening to music, the audio sounds cold and empty. Seeing as I purchased them for gaming though, they meet and surpass the hope I had for them.My Three Cents:Superb sound quality and the right amount of bass. I tried other brands at the $300 pricepoint but none was as good as these wired FiiO FH5sPro earphones. Definitely worth the money. I listen to a lot of dubstep and hip hop so expect a lot of dirty and clean bass and this does both with high-quality sound output.Haven’t touched myAirPod Pros since getting these. Wow.Just a quick summary, While listening to “【Tanaka Music Hall】Tanaka Hime - Skylarks (Acoustic)” keeping all switches down(0), it’s a nice U shape, bass has wonderful impact, sub-bass is enough for me to be pleased with, mids come out, vocals and the upper treble is very airy, giving it a nice huge stage to get lost in. But I felt the vocals on this song could get a little up there, not sibilant, but a kinda harshness some might perceive, when I switched the B to (1), Mid to (1) and left treble at 0 still, it smoothed everything out real well, lowering the treble and bringing a nice warmness to it all, and no harshness was there on this track, but it was smooth, bass didn’t change, vocals were superb, instrument detail was still there but a little less sparkly in the treble region and when I brought down the bass switch to (0), left treble still @ (0), and kept mids at (1), it kept the vocals at about the same spot while still keeping a sparkle without the harshness, riding the line you could say, and bass still the same throughout the testing, this is where I found my liking for this set. I love them for EDM, MMD, K-Pop, Pop, Chinese Folk, R&B and Nightcore. Stage is very wide, with lots of detail and layering. Build wise, they’re almost identical to the BGVP NS9, but with venting, they fit perfect for my ears, nice and snugly. Cord is also very nice. I’m using the 4.4mm plug on them hooked up to an iFi Zen dac/amp with truebass turned on, SpinFit CP100 eartips, and I can’t say enough of how impressed I am with them. Overall, I prefer these to the FD5’s, and I enjoy them on the same level as the FH3’s, I think these have more detail, a hint brighter and with a slightly larger stage and the FH3’s are slightly more intimate than these and have a heavier hitting bass, a touch warmer, but it would be hard for me to pick one over the other, they just have slightly different tunings and both are wonderful.>>> - Several months later, I'm still enjoying them, the sparkly highs, the textured bass is wonderful, and then the crispy mids, instrument detail just pops at you, though clear & clean with no graininess, and let us not forget the vocals, that sit a little closer to you for a intimate experience- I really enjoy them!Mainly use these for MMD, EDM, Nightcore and watching Anime.These are one of the best IEMs I own or have tried and I have a dozen different models. I was concerned about harshness with these drivers so I burned them in for 200 hours first per FiiO recommendations before any serious listening. They are efficient and don't require a lot of power to run. I listen to them on my FiiO X7 MKII and newer Cayin N3PRO and they sound great on all kinds of music. They are well balanced (to my ear) with smooth highs, clear and forward voices and midrange and clear, tight and impressive bass down to lower bass. They are NOT bass heavy for you bass fans but when there is bass in the music it is tight, well defined and will go deep. The bass impact and power is impressive but only when it's in the music. They are very revealing and make older, less dynamic music sound more lively and newer HD music sound fantastic. I do recommend these if listening to music is a primary activity for you and not just for background...I've had the fiio fh3 since Thanksgiving and they are a fun sound, great bass and awesome sound spectrum. I bought them because of the tech specs, and the way the technology was impaneled (these were my first iem) and since they were a 2020 product I was waiting to try a new set from Fiio. I bought the fh5s got them yesterday, still burning them in but the sound is much more mellow the bass is big and more on the light side (I haven't played with the tuning just yet) vs the fh3, the fh3 have a harder quicker punchy bass and hit the lows slightly louder (the S. Turbo does the job well and the 10mm beryllium coated driver is amazing) but with the fh5s the bass fits in any song with girth and is present the mids give good vocal clarity and highs are well tuned.pimp asf yo these sound bangin but remember 2 flip the mids switch. even the bass if ur feeling extra pimp.I was looking forward with this IEM ,very disappointed mids /low . Bad . I think try to much stuff to iemSound quality medium.Almost every song is differentEstoy contento por la calidad de construcción, todos los accesorios que lleva para los diferentes oídos y gustos (de más graves, medios,agudos...) .lo que realmente me ha sorprendido es la posibilidad de conexión balanceada sin tener que cambiar el cable, solo cambiando la conexión del mismo (suministrado en la misma caja)....con un DAC FIIO btr3k...suenan brutal!!... sobretodo con música dance o electrónica....ojo!....si abusas mucho del volumen del dac alto pierde algo de calidad... pero a un 75% del mismo...la calidad es impresionante... más que suficiente ya que por salud auditiva tampoco es recomendable más, en otros géneros cómo el rock....no me ha gustado tanto. recomiendo regular los bajos del propio auricular ya que para mí gusto le falta algo punch....y eso sí...con un dac con salida balanceada 2'5...gana muchísimo!...yo ya no cambio a la configuración a 3'5 tradicionalCasque prévu pour un Hiby R3 pro Saber à 229€ ces écouteurs montrent une écoute montante avec plus d’aigus que de grave en général.- En jack 3,5mm le son est montant mais on se demande où est la stéréo sur du DJ Shadow. On a du détail dans les hauts médiums et les aigus mais aucune ampleur dans les graves, ils descendent oui mais sans ampleur.- En jack 2,5 mm, symétrique donc, on regagne de l’ampleur et de la stéréo, normal sans plus, mais rien qui vaut le coût de se réveiller la nuit.Je reste avec mon Beyerdynamic DT770 pro 32ohms à cordon 1,2m qui offre un plaisir d’écoute très supérieur et met une grosse claque à ces écouteurs crincrin 2x plus cher. Il n’y a pas de secret, il est difficile d’avoir la même ampleur, ou qualités en général, avec une membrane hp 4x plus petite, comme si qu’on aurait les mêmes perfs avec un moteur 3 pattes d’un litre qu’avec un V8 de 4 litres, c’est juste impossible.Donc vous l’avez compris ce truc est vendu 10x trop cher voilà c’est dit lolCasque de très haute qualité. L’audio est de très haute qualité, extrêmement détaillé avec, à mon avis, plus d’aiguë et de médium que de basse.Très facile à mettre, il isole bien des bruits extérieurs bien qu’il soit de type ouvert.
