- FIXO announces new headphones with flagship cable, the FT9
- 106 mm flat magnetic controllers and 94DB/MW sensitivity
- Arriving later in 2025, for around $ 800
In recent years, Fixo has taken a place in the hearts of the Techradar audio team: excellent, refined and class audiophiles of products that generally undermine competition. The brand has taken great points on our list of the best high -resolution audio players, as well as our classification of the best cable headphones, and now has a new product to disturb that second list.
I am really excited by the sound of its new flagship headphones, the fi ft7, which are cans with flat magnetic wires, which the company says “marks the pinnacle of the lessons learned and the technological advances in all models” of its FT headphones.
Our fixed review FT5 gave the previous high -end headphones the five full stars, and said that “they sound great, they are built to last from touch materials and harshly hard, and have an audiophile specification at a conventional price.”
The new FT7 headphones have a 106 mm flat controller, with a diaphragm of 1 μm and 18 magnets on each side for a well -controlled magnetic field.
With a sensitivity of 94db/MW, he will want to match them with a headphones amplifier, but he probably already assumed it, given the general atmosphere here.
The rack is zebra, with the characteristic stripes of that particular material. You have the option of using lamb leather or suede pads, depending on your sound and preferences of animal products.
427 g weigh, what is described optimistic as “light” in the press release that I received, although the good of Fiode obtains the weight distribution directly in its headphones, so I hope you feel comfortable enough to establish themselves.
You also get a storage box made of “Lino Yauli” with them. What price for all this? Well, they do not defeat until later in 2025, with an expected price of around $ 800 (around £ 630 / au $ 1,250); It seems that the exact amount will not be confirmed until they are closer to the launch.
As I said in the head, $ 800 is definitely pushing beyond most affordable definitions, but everything is relative: in the world of high -fidelity headphones, a pair of flagships flags can easily cost $ 2,000, by what if fixed headphones are close to being close to being close to being close to being close to being close to being close to being close to being close to Being close to being close to being close to being close to being close to that quality level, they are a bargain, somehow.
That has been the case of products such as fixed audio players M11 and fixed M23, who rivaize high -end players and Astell & Kern’s expensive for their quality and specifications for much less: the M11 is so good, we use it, what We use. As our standard source device to test headphones and cable headphones.
So I am excited to see if I fixed can upload your headphones successfully successfully, especially because I have been a big flat magnetic fan since the launch of OPPO PM-1 years ago, which I still have in a closet.
