XLNT headphone alert!

the Fiio FT-1 is $150 and i'll be damned if it isn't the bargain of the year that has the distinction of reaching 30Hhz easily in the lows.

I wonder if there are two versions of the FiiO FT1 headphones? The link below shows a pair of open back, magnetic planar headphones selling for $200 on Amazon. Are your FT1 headphones open back planar headphones or closed back dynamic headphones .

I own the FiiO FT5 Open Back, Magnetic Planar headphones that cost $450 on Amazon. They sound very good to me, but those new FT1 PRO headphones look very impressive, too. I might buy a pair.

  on YT by reputable reviewers. I got to hear them at CanJam SoCal after returning a pair of Zeos' co-lab named Eris which does reach the bottom but has too much mid-bass emphasis. They were beaucoup comfy and the wire was excellent and being light in weight was also a plus but the FT-1 was more my sonic fit.
  
  the wires with the FT-1 are noticeably microphonic and distracted me so I ordered a Penticon (balanced) equipped Aune cable for $50 and that hits the spot.
