Pure Berryllium goodness! Fd5:Volkswagen :: fd7:Lamborghini

The title says it all :) fiio's finest single DD iem with pure beryllium diaphragm is a finely crafted piece of exquisite jewelry which oozes class and right from the packaging, to the iems, carry case, cable and the tips all Look very premium. The iem is built like a tank and fitting and comfort are excellent.

I have been a fan of fd5 though at times it was boomy in the mid bass and sibilant on higher frequencies. It did well with most genres. The fd3 was really a let down to say the least. The bass was too much (too boomy) for my liking and it was much more sibilant than the fd5.

I was a bit hesitant to pull the trigger on fd7 due to its ridiculous pricing but when I saw it available for 45K and combined with my HPZ fiio discount coupon of 10%, I pulled the trigger :). Must admit that I was still concerned about the SQ but after putting the iem through an initial run of my library I must say that I am very relieved :)

This iem will require significant burn-in but let me leave my initial impressions on the sound so far:

U shaped and very refined SQ compared to fd5. Bass quality is awesome, quantity is less than fd5 and fd3 which is actually a good thing as it allows the mids to shine and you get a very transparent and clean presentation. Sub bass is a tad less to my liking and bass nozzle compensates for this a bit but you lose details in the mids and treble.

The treble is nice and airy with lots of shimmer. I am yet to try the nozzle which enhances the treble but so far I am happy with the balanced nozzle. No sibilance noticed whatsoever.

Vs fd5 and fd3 : fd7 is a clear winner for me as it's more balanced and better controlled bass and cleaner mids. I can't listen to fd5 and fd3 anymore after getting the taste of fd7 :)

One of the best single DD IEMs, endgame for me

FiiO nailed this one. FD7 comes with great build quality, excellent cable with replaceable connectors and plenty of accessories.

They fit very easy and are very comfortable. The included tips will do the job but if you are looking for tip rolling, do consider Spinfit W1 tips which are very good.

The sound:
Single DD always has the advantage of great timbre over hybrids, tribrids and all BAs. FD7 has excellent tonality and timbre that almost feels like a open back headphones. The sound is a little warm, thick, smooth and very detailed. It's great for long listening and never fatiguing. It has great textured bass, nice smooth treble which never sounds bright or harsh. The mid range is a little laid back. It sounds very open and big for an IEM. I had a few IEMs (Oxyzen, Blessing 2) before but FD7 sounds significantly better than them.

If you are a single DD lover and prefer nice warm, smooth signature, don't hesitate just buy FD7 blindly. You won't be disappointed.

Fantastic purchase

These sound so great, and pair well with my Fiio M15. One point to note that while the set comes with a multitude of ear plugs, only a select few will fit; depending on the tube. It's setup in such a manner that you can't go with a bass tube and a bass ear plug -- the plugs don't fit the tube diameters. Very strange.

We appreciate your honest review & ratings, Ahmed Shaikh!

SUBMERGE IN THE MUSIC WITH FLAGSHIP-LEVEL PURE BERYLLIUM DYNAMIC DRIVER

FiiO has done an incredible job since its inception in 2007, building its well-deserved reputation through invention and R&D, and premium products. It has won multiple industry awards, thus continuing the legacy FiiO brings the all-new FD7 to the table. FiiO FD7 continues in the direction of its FD line siblings, using the flagship-grade dynamic driver. The FD7 has a powerful 12mm dynamic driver with a diaphragm made entirely of Beryllium. With this pure Beryllium diaphragm material, the FiiO FD7 sets new standards of high-quality music with its thunderous performance. Because Beryllium is four times more robust than steel and only weighs one-fourth as much as titanium drivers, pure beryllium diaphragm provides excellent performance. This results in quick transient response and high-quality sound reproduction.

FRONT ACOUSTIC PRISM COMBINED WITH SEMI-OPEN DESIGN FOR LOW DISTORTION AND WIDE SOUNDSTAGE

The FiiO FD5 has an independently created Acoustic Prism System to remove challenges caused by delays in various sound waves. A conical device is positioned towards the front end of the driver's diaphragm to precisely control the direction of sound waves. The semi-open acoustic design of the FD7 effectively relieves air pressure buildup, resulting in comfortable listening. The front Acoustic Prism System has several advantages, further improving the FD7 performance. The system helps eliminate high-frequency standing waves, enhancing overall sound wave diffusion and even effectively solving the problem of time delay caused by sound wave propagation path in the cavity. This design decision makes the FD7 comfortable to wear and reduces unwanted distortion by having a tremendous transient response, leading to superior audio performance. The FiiO FD7 has incredible sound staging capabilities offering width, depth, and height of the imaginary "stage". You will be amazed by the imaging capabilities of the FD7. Each instrument is separated across the stage.

PERSONALISE THE SOUND OF THE FIIO FD7 WITH 3 INTERCHANGEABLE SOUND TUBES

For adjusting the frequency response of the earphones, the FD7 also has replaceable sound tubes. The three interchangeable sound tubes for different sound profiles in the FiiO FD7 propose exciting ways to listen to your music. Although the FD7 already offers a solid sound signature that would adhere to the sonic preferences of audiophiles, it still has room for personalisation. Befitting its flagship status, the FD7 comes standard with three pairs of interchangeable sound tubes, each with different inner diameter for various sound profiles. The large inner tube presents a vast soundstage, the medium inner tube impresses with its balanced sound, while the small inner tube serves up a thundering bass response. These interchangeable sound tubes allow you to experience the sound signature as if you are listening to three different IEMs in a single package.

VOLCANIC FIELD SYSTEM FUSED WITH EXQUISITE COLOUR SCHEME AND CRAFTSMANSHIP

FiiO's top priority is excellent craftsmanship, which is evident in every detail of the FD7. FiiO FD7 comes equipped with the ingenious "Volcanic Field" system developed by FiiO, taking advantage of how sound waves work and noticeably improving the sound. The "Volcanic Field" system effectively reduces standing waves and distortion, correcting the diffusion of bass response in the FD7. This tech is enclosed in an exquisitely crafted 3rd generation industrial design earpiece. The team at FiiO have crafted the beautiful earpieces in FD7 with an exclusive colour scheme. Black serves as the primary colour for the dome and golden serves as the colour for the mesh in the exquisitely designed FD7.

BUNDLED WITH A HIGH PURITY LITZ CABLE AND HI-RES AUDIO CERTIFICATION

The FD7 comes with an exclusive cable made of high purity monocrystalline silver-plated copper cable with four large strands of wires for a total of 224 wires braided together in Litz type 2 style. In addition, it features blue (left) and red (right) markings for convenience. The interchangeable twist-lock audio plugs allow you to switch between 2.5/3.5/4.4mm plugs depending on your source. The cable features an angled MMCX connector for easy connectivity. The outer sheath is crafted from environment-friendly German TPU material with a lustrous transparent look.
