Each earpiece has eight drivers: a push-pull pair of 13.7mm dynamic drivers for the bass, four custom Knowles balanced armatures with enhanced midrange, and a Knowles SWFK dual tweeter, in a four-way design with Rubycon film capacitors, a mid-frequency notch filter, FiiO’s S.Turbo bass tube and a semi-open shell of titanium and 7000-series aluminium. A pure silver cable, three tuning filters and 22 pairs of ear tips are included. It won a CIHE EHA 2024 Gold Award and a VGP 2025 Summer Gold Award.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0960\/3199\/8339\/files\/fiio-fh19-flagship-hybrid-iems-with-2-dynamic-and-6-ba-drivers-photo-pair.jpg?v=1791325063\" alt=\"FiiO FH19 flagship hybrid in-ear monitors\" loading=\"lazy\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBuilding on the FH9\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThree years after the FH9, FiiO’s first high-end flagship hybrid, became known as a great example of a balanced earphone, the FH19 builds on it with much user feedback. It keeps the FH9’s signature sound and flagship craftsmanship while adding a truly high-end acoustic design: richer, fuller mids and more robust yet agile bass, with a fit redesigned around the shape of the ear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA four-way acoustic design\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs the chief engineer of FiiO’s IEM R\u0026amp;D centre explains, the FH19 updates the bass and mid drivers and puts them into a more precisely controlled four-way crossover. The bass uses the custom push-pull dynamic pair with turbine low-frequency boost (S.Turbo) as a physical low-pass filter, for relaxed, natural bass. The mids use an innovative “3+1 semi-open” layout of balanced armatures with a new resonant cavity, giving two separately managed midrange zones for richer, more emotional mids. The treble keeps a coaxial design with an acoustic guide, plus Rubycon film capacitors, for high resolution with excellent tone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0960\/3199\/8339\/files\/fiio-fh19-flagship-hybrid-iems-with-2-dynamic-and-6-ba-drivers-photo-exploded.jpg?v=1791325070\" alt=\"Exploded view of the FiiO FH19 drivers and shell\" loading=\"lazy\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePush-pull dual dynamic drivers\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDeveloped with Tokyo Onkyo from push-pull technology used in high-end audio, the bass unit uses two 13.7mm high-magnetic dynamic drivers with PU and DLC composite diaphragms, facing each other. When one diaphragm pushes out, the other pulls in, so the pair moves as one with consistent phase: the driving force doubles, the diaphragms damp each other’s air for steadier movement, and residual sound stops cleanly when the signal does. Needing only half the movement of a normal driver for the same volume, they stay more linear with less intermodulation distortion, for a cleaner sound with deeper, more cohesive and faster bass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0960\/3199\/8339\/files\/fiio-fh19-flagship-hybrid-iems-with-2-dynamic-and-6-ba-drivers-photo-pushpull.jpg?v=1791325075\" alt=\"The push-pull dual dynamic driver unit of the FiiO FH19\" loading=\"lazy\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA suspended voice coil\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe voice coil leads run from the centre hole beneath the diaphragm and float within the gap, so there is no unnecessary contact or extra adhesive.

For even better vocals, FiiO and Knowles created a custom mid-frequency armature with acoustic vents in its rear cavity, giving it more sound energy than a typical mid driver: rich, mellow vocals so real the singer could be beside you.

It keeps the armatures’ resolution while raising the midrange level for denser, fuller vocals and a smooth hand-over from the dynamic drivers; it removes the 8kHz peak from the mid drivers, reducing their overlap with the tweeters to stop sibilance; and it brings the armatures’ crossover point forward so each has its own range. It works like a resonant cavity: near the cavity’s natural frequency, friction between the air and the walls turns sound energy into heat, absorbing that band, while other frequencies pass, giving a purely physical crossover.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRubycon film capacitors and S.Turbo bass\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLike the FA19, the FH19 uses high-precision Japanese Rubycon film capacitors in its crossover, with an error of just 0.1% against around 1% for typical crossover parts, for more precise crossover points, better phase alignment and more treble detail than ordinary ceramic capacitors. FiiO’s patented S.Turbo design (patent ZL2018211416279), inspired by supercar turbochargers, guides sound through a turbine-shaped tube for deep, vibrant bass while filtering excess mids and treble from the dynamic drivers for a smooth transition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSemi-open design\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe semi-open design praised in the FH9, FH7S, FH5S and FD5 returns, specially tuned with FiiO’s front and rear cavity pressure relief, for a more natural, relaxed sound with a wide soundstage and no pressure on your eardrums, so you can listen for hours without fatigue.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0960\/3199\/8339\/files\/fiio-fh19-flagship-hybrid-iems-with-2-dynamic-and-6-ba-drivers-photo-semiopen.jpg?v=1791325097\" alt=\"Airflow through the semi-open FiiO FH19\" loading=\"lazy\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTitanium and aerospace aluminium\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe shell is 7000-series aluminium, used in aircraft fuselages and wings for its strength, rigidity and corrosion resistance, keeping the FH19 light despite its drivers.
