Flagship sound
Three years ago, the FH9 was launched, the first high-end hybrid headphones from FIIO. With its energetic dynamics, wide soundstage and pleasant sound quality, it was enthusiastically received by hi-fi users worldwide.
It gradually became known among audiophiles as a great example of ‘balanced headphones’ and far exceeded expectations in terms of popularity.
It is still a competitive headphone on the market today.
The new FIIO FH19 from FIIO is a significant upgrade that incorporates a lot of user feedback.
It retains the distinctive sound and premium build quality of the FH9 and has also been developed in partnership with Tokyo Onkyo Ltd. in Japan and Knowles in the USA.
It features a truly high-end acoustic design, with richer and fuller mids and a more robust yet flexible bass.
In addition, the fit has been redesigned and optimised based on the characteristics of the human ear, so you can enjoy flagship-level comfort.

The top, further improved
The new FIIO FH19 is equipped with two 13.7mm dynamic drivers and six balanced armature drivers, matching the flagship.
The bass is reproduced by a completely new push-pull dual dynamic driver unit, which was developed jointly with Tokyo Onkyo Ltd. in Japan.
This driver is characterised by significantly improved extension, cohesion and speed in the low frequency range.
The mid to high frequencies are handled by specially adapted, improved Knowles Balanced Armature drivers for the midrange, achieving greater sound energy density for rich and delicate vocals that are wonderfully musical without sacrificing detail.
As the cones move back and forth, the overall direction of movement of the two dynamic drivers remains consistent due to the push-pull arrangement, ensuring phase consistency.
This effectively doubles the driving force and allows the diaphragms to damp each other with air.
As a result, the dynamic drivers exhibit more stable movement and completely suppress any residual sound after the end of the audio signal.
Compared to typical dynamic drivers, push-pull dual dynamic drivers require only half the amplitude to reach the target sound pressure level.
This results in lower cone excursion, which significantly improves linear drive performance and further reduces intermodulation distortion, allowing the driver unit to deliver a cleaner sound.

Customised Knowles Enhanced Mid-BA Drivers
The FIIO FH19 uses six Knowles Balanced-Armature drivers as mid and high frequency units. To achieve an even higher level of vocal sound quality, FIIO has worked with Knowles to develop a custom balanced armature driver with enhanced midrange.
By adding acoustic vents in the rear cavity of the driver, the mid-frequency driver gains more sound energy compared to typical mid-frequency drivers.
This brings out the benefits of the midrange driver even more, resulting in rich and smooth vocals that sound as immersive and realistic as if the singer were standing right next to you.

7000 Series titanium and aluminium construction
The FIIO FH19 boasts a build quality worthy of a flagship speaker, helped by its titanium centre frame.
Its luxurious feel and uniquely charming titanium colour give it a premium look.
As the part of the headphones that is touched the most, the rigidity and corrosion resistance of the pure titanium metal bracket thoroughly protects the rest of the headphone housing and makes it resistant to everyday wear and tear.
The FIIO FH19 uses 7000 series aluminium*, which ensures a robust and resistant housing while reducing the weight of the headphones.
Thanks to this aluminium, the FH19 offers a comfortable wearing experience even with more drivers and a more complex acoustic design.
*7000 series aluminium alloy is widely used for aircraft fuselages, wings and other important components. It has high strength, rigidity and corrosion resistance.

Fatigue-free listening, large sound stage Semi-open design
The semi-open design was highly praised in the FIIO FH9, FH7S, FH5S and FD5.
In the FH19, this proven semi-open design is used again and has been specially adapted to combine with FIIO's balanced pressure relief technology for the front and rear cavities - the result is a more natural and relaxed sound with a wide sound stage.
This design efficiently equalises internal air pressure, eliminating the feeling of pressure on the eardrum, which also helps protect your hearing.
Enjoy long listening without fatigue.

Mid-frequency cut-off filter
The FH19 features a variety of different drivers and acoustic design principles.
The scientific tuning of the individual parts so that they form a harmonious whole is the essence of high-level tuning.
To achieve this, the FIIO development team has developed a special ‘mid-frequency cut filter’ for the FH19 hybrid earphones.
Further enhanced mid-range tests have shown that the FH19's mid-frequency cut filter not only retains the high resolution and clarity of the BA drivers, but also increases the sound pressure level in the mid-frequency range.
This makes the vocals denser and fuller while ensuring a smooth transition between the dynamic driver and the BA driver for the mid frequencies.
The FH19's mid-frequency cut-off filter effectively filters out the high-frequency 8 kHz peaks generated by the mid-range drivers.
This reduces the overlap between the sound produced by the midrange and tweeter drivers, eliminating sibilance while ensuring high sound quality.
The mid-frequency cut-off filter can also advance the crossover point of the balanced armature units.
This ensures that these drivers have a truly independent frequency range and there is no interference with the other drivers, allowing the tweeters to perform to their full potential.
The working principle of the FH19's mid-frequency cut-off filter: When the frequency of the sound wave is close to the natural frequency of the resonance chamber, the inner wall of the resonance chamber and the air generate vibrational friction, which converts the sound energy of certain frequency bands into mechanical and thermal energy, thereby consuming sound energy and achieving a sound absorption effect.
Conversely, the resonance effect in the cavity is weaker if the frequency of the sound wave is far away from the natural frequency of the resonance chamber, resulting in less sound absorption.
This principle forms the basis for the operation of the FH19's mid-frequency cut-off filter, which adjusts the sound produced by the mid-range drivers and achieves a physical pass-through effect.

Focusing on small details to achieve big improvements
Suspended voice coil To achieve flagship-level driver performance, the FIIO FH19 utilises a suspended voice coil.
With this design, the voice coil leads are routed directly from the centre hole underneath the cone, allowing them to float in the gap.
This avoids unnecessary contact and prevents additional adhesive load.
Compared to conventional diaphragms*, the floating voice coil design ensures smooth and gentle diaphragm movement, minimising interference from other factors and fully exploiting the diaphragm's inherent potential.
*Conventional diaphragms often use special adhesives to bond the voice coil to the diaphragm surface.
However, this approach not only increases the overall weight of the diaphragm, but can also lead to a dynamic imbalance during dynamic movements of the driver.
Uneven local weight distribution can lead to vibration irregularities, change the compliance of the cone and even cause distortion due to voice coil scraping.
This ultimately affects the overall performance of the driver.

Scalpel-like accuracy Rubycon audiophile-grade film capacitor crossovers
The FH19 is equipped with the same high-precision Japanese film capacitors as the FA19, which offer exceptional accuracy in phase matching and have been developed with the utmost care for sound quality.
While conventional resistor-based crossover components typically have an accuracy error of around 1%, the FH19 achieves an impressively low error rate of 0.1%. In addition, the FH19 not only achieves more precise crossover points compared to conventional ceramic capacitors, but also effectively improves the resolution in the high frequency range and results in a more detailed sound overall.

Acoustic four-way design
"While the basic design is derived from the FH9, the FH19 builds on and surpasses its predecessor by updating the bass and midrange drivers and implementing them in a more precisely controlled four-way crossover design.
Special push-pull dual dynamic driver units are used in the low frequency range, and a ‘Turbine Low-Frequency Boost Technology’ is used for physical low-pass filtering for relaxed yet natural bass.
For the mid frequencies, the FH19 introduces an innovative ‘3+1 semi-open’ acoustic layout with balanced armatures.
This is complemented by a newly designed resonance chamber that allows for two separately managed mid-range areas, resulting in richer and more emotional mids.
For the high frequencies, the FH19 retains the coaxial design with an acoustic guide, but also incorporates audiophile-quality Rubycon film capacitors.
This combination enables high resolution with excellent high frequency response."

Turbo-charged energy
Patented S.Turbo design Inspired by turbochargers in super sports cars, the FIIO development team has created the patented S.Turbo acoustic design.
This design ingeniously utilises the properties of sound wave guidance and improves bass performance through a turbine-shaped structure.
The result is a deep and lively bass.
In addition, the design skilfully filters out excess mid to high frequencies from the dynamic driver, ensuring smooth transitions between the low and mid to high frequencies.
The result is a powerful and robust sound.

Interchangeable audio filters
As befits an IEM flagship, the FH19 has three pairs of interchangeable audio filters.
Each filter has a different internal attenuation and mesh density, so you can customise the sound to your preference: Red audio filter - Boosts low frequencies and provides powerful and impressive bass Black audio filter - Provides a balanced sound that is clear and transparent Green audio filter - Delivers fine and detailed highs *Green filter is pre-installed.
The other filters are included in the carrying case.

Top-class comfort
Optimised wearing ergonomics 10° ear cup angle Based on user feedback and numerous optimisations, the angle between the ear cup and the wearing surface along the Y-axis is exactly 10°, while the length of the ear cup remains unchanged.
This adjustment means that the earphones fit even more precisely in the ear canal, which significantly improves both wearing comfort and stability.
Gap-free, comfortable fit, the FH19 has a completely new, more three-dimensional rear recess design.
Numerous tests led to numerous ergonomic optimisations, such as ear-friendly protrusions with a thickness of approx. 1.4 mm, which ensure a firm and stable fit by minimising any unwanted movement.
The brand new design of the FH19 back panel features a slight reduction in thickness - approximately 1 mm - in the area corresponding to the fold of the human ear.
This structural design significantly reduces the feeling of pressure and compression on the ear from the earphones.
In combination with the excellent housing materials, the FH19 disappears into your ears while delivering a first-class sound.

Pure silver for pure sound
The FH19 comes with a high-purity pure silver cable as standard. Each of the 8 strands consists of 28 wires, totalling 224 wires.
Each individual wire is insulated with enamel and the cable is braided into strands.
The outer jacket is made of imported, transparent and environmentally friendly TPU, which enhances the transparent appearance of the cable.
In addition, this material effectively prevents the cable from yellowing with prolonged use and becoming stiff at low temperatures.
