FiiO FH5s Earphone with 2 Dynamic Drivers and 2 Knowles Balanced Armatures
Overview
The FiiO FH5s is a hybrid in-ear monitor with two dynamic drivers and two balanced armatures per ear, plus three tuning switches for bass, mids, and treble. It's for listeners who want full, natural bass and clear vocals, with the option to shift the sound to suit different music or moods.
FiiO's 2+2 layout uses a 12mm beryllium-plated dynamic driver with a PU gasket and 1.5 Tesla N52 magnets for deep, controlled bass, and a 6mm beryllium-plated dynamic driver for the mids, which gives vocals more body and a wider soundstage than the balanced armature the original FH5 used there. A Knowles TWFK-30017 dual balanced armature sits right in the sound tube, close to the ear, for extended treble. The three switches give eight tuning combinations, and the semi-open rear cavity relieves air pressure for a larger soundstage and more comfortable long sessions.
The TRISHELL design locks the 5-axis CNC-machined aluminum-magnesium alloy rear shell, body, and front cover together at three points to cut resonance and distortion. Each earpiece weighs about 8.8g. It's Hi-Res Audio certified and comes with a detachable silver-plated copper Litz cable with MMCX connectors and swappable 3.5mm and 4.4mm twist-lock plugs, an HB5 carrying case, and 13 pairs of ear tips.
Simcoe Audio Video Insight
The FH5s is a smart pick if you like to tinker but don't want to buy a second pair of earphones for different genres. Start with all three switches in their default positions, then change one at a time so you can hear what each does. At 40 ohms and 106dB/mW, it pairs well with a dongle DAC or portable player, and the 4.4mm plug lets you use a balanced output straight away.

Buyer's Guide
Who It's For
- The Genre-Hopper: Wants one IEM that can lean warmer or brighter on demand.
- The Balanced-Source Owner: Has a 4.4mm output and wants to use it with no adapter.
- The Vocal Lover: Wants a dynamic mid driver for fuller, more natural vocals.
How It Compares
The FH5s replaces the original FH5's mid-range balanced armature with a 6mm dynamic driver for smoother, fuller vocals. Next to the FiiO FH3, it adds a second dynamic driver, three tuning switches, and a balanced-ready cable. The FH5s Pro uses a higher-wire-count cable.
