jaydunndidditAs somebody who owned the FH1 I certainly hope not. While I loved the way the FH1s portrayed the mid and higher frequencies, the low end was so bloated it was nearly unusable.
The F9pro has a very nice, controlled but present low, but still suffers from treble spikes which can get uncomfortable. If fiio could combine the two, they would have a winner.
Hopefully these are closer to a combination of the FH1 and F9pro as I'm darn near ready to pull the trigger on them.
OrvilleRedenbacherLow end for me is fine on the FH1 but my ears must not be blocking the airhole near the driver. I hear that may increase bass quite a bit.
JdjungIt's not about the quantity of bass but the quality and extension. When I had the FH1 and F9 (ended up returning both), I had the identical thoughts as Orville above.
jaydunndidditThe quality of the bass is fine for me but given the subjective nature of sound and different ear sizes they may not be a good fit for you. I love mine and hope these sound like the FH1.
