FiiO FD15 Overview

Building on the success of the FD5, the silver FiiO FD15 Dynamic In-Ear Monitor Headphones feature numerous design enhancements that provide clear highs, powerful midrange, and deep bass. With its enlarged diaphragm (13.8mm), W-shaped gasket, longer voice coil, and more powerful magnet, the FD15 provides greater detail for a truly high-end listening experience. Other notable enhancements include the F.T.B.S. Tesla Valve for bass enhancement and a frontal acoustic prism to enhance high-frequency diffusion for adaptive phase consistency and precision control over the sound waves.

The FD15 includes a Furukawa monocrystalline silver-plated copper braded headphone cable to deliver audiophile quality audio to the earphones. The cable attaches to the earphones via MMCX connectors, while the other end features straight twist-lock swappable audio plugs (3.5 and 4.4mm), allowing you to connect to consumer and high-end balanced playback devices. The FD15 also includes 14 pairs of eartips, an MMCX quick release tool, a cleaning brush, two swappable sound nozzles, and a storage case.

Magnalium Diaphragm DLC Gasket
  • Introducing a truly high-end driver design—a magnalium diaphragm DLC gasket driver. By innovatively combining two materials, not only does the FD15 deliver a spacious and relaxed natural sound, but it does so while achieving new heights in the reproduction of musical detail for truly transparent sound.
  • Magnalium diaphragm, a scientifically calculated blend of magnesium and aluminum, features high hardness and low distortion when moved for clear, detailed treble. The DLC gasket is made from carbon, which is known for being both rigid yet flexible and provides less breakup during movement and ultimately higher-quality sound.
W-Shaped Gasket
The FD15 boldly embraces high-end audio design principles by introducing the W-shaped gasket design to earphones. Compared to conventional diaphragms of the same size, the FD15 boasts a 30% increase in effective vibrating area. With a larger effective diaphragm area and greater amplitude, the core acoustic unit can store more sound energy, delivering a denser and more solid listening experience.
13.8mm Large Dynamic Driver
The FD15 explores higher levels of core audio performance by increasing the diameter of the dynamic driver to a remarkable 13.8mm, resulting in an increase in effective diaphragm area of approximately 40% over its predecessor. The larger the dynamic driver, the more air it can push through, thereby improving the efficiency of electroacoustic conversion at its source. This enhancement elevates the overall quality and scale, allowing mid-frequency vocals to feel as if they are right next to the ear.
Extra-Long Voice Coil
Based on professional design principles, the voice coil diameter of the FD15 has been increased to 8.6mm. The longer voice coil copper wire directly enhances efficiency and power capacity, providing an improved transients. The result is a cleaner, more natural sound that allows you to fully appreciate its charming mids.
1.5T External Magnet Design
The driver structure is one of the most important parts of a dynamic driver earphone. The FD15 draws inspiration from innovative acoustic concepts and adopts a powerful external magnet design. The magnet volume has increased by about 69.5%, and the magnetic flux density can reach up to 1.5T. This abundant and uniform energy supply ensures that this high-end driver consistently works well.
Tesla Valve Bass Enhancement Acoustic Design
  • The FD15's acoustic design has been specifically optimized so that when the air pressure inside the earphone cavity flows from the inside to the outside, the specially calculated length, angles, and quantity of the channels result in the air flow exhibiting a change in viscosity, which effectively lowers the cavity's resonant frequency for truly deep-reaching and impactful bass.
  • When the alternating airflow from the outside flows inward toward the earphone, it is not hindered, allowing for the internal air pressure to be quickly and adaptively balanced. This allows the driver to work at its best. 
Fontal Acoustic Prism
The FD15 features a front acoustic prism, which not only retains the widely acclaimed vocals from the FD5, but also helps to adaptively adjust the all-new driver and enhances high-frequency diffusion. Specifically, engineers have added a specially designed acoustic filtering device at the front of the driver. When sound waves pass through, this acoustic device effectively addresses the subtle sound delay caused by different sound wave paths, achieving adaptive phase consistency and precise control over sound waves.
Furukawa Monocrystalline Cable
The FD15 comes standard with a Furukawa monocrystalline copper and Furukawa monocrystalline silver-plated copper braided cable. The cable consists of four large strands, each made up of 100 copper wires and 20 silver-plated wires, for an overall total of 480 wires, which is unparalleled in its class. With a cross-sectional area of 22 AWG and having undergone 1050°C high-temperature smelting, the included cable is truly high-end quality but at an affordable price.

FiiO FD15 Reviews

Great sound but not so comfortable…

By Dwight
Rated 3 out of 5

While the sound was great, I had some difficulty keeping them in my ear comfortably. They kept gradually slipping out and I had to keep pushing them back in my ear. I had bought them for a rather long flight and while at times they seem to work well, too many times I could not seem to adjust them so as to comfortably keep them in my ears. I was continually adjusting one or the other.

Excellent Value for the Price

The sound quality is excellent - better than other IEMs I have owned or tried at twice the price. I pair them with the new Fiio M21, which has a system-wide equalizer, and these IEMs have enough range and detail to accommodate a full range of sound profiles. It's a steal for the price.
