Audiomania expert verdict

Closed wooden headphones with 60 mm drivers — the most popular pick under 20 000 ₽ among Audiomania buyers: a warm, slightly V-shaped, engaging sound, comfort over long sessions and a full kit (two cables, 3.5 and 4.4 mm, an adapter, a hard case). 32 Ω and 98 dB — they play from a laptop or a player; an amplifier is optional.

In brief

Best if you are looking for:

  • a first “serious” pair of closed headphones under 20 000 ₽ — 15 reviews, nearly all “Excellent”; “a gift for music lovers at this price” AI draft, under review
  • a warm, engaging sound with emphasised bass and full-bodied vocals — rock, electronica, jazz AI draft, under review
  • a player, laptop or phone with a dongle — 32 Ω and 98 dB, only 0.71 V needed by rule AI draft, under review
  • long sessions — most owners note the comfort; breathable pads and detachable cables AI draft, under review
  • balanced 4.4 mm connection — the cable is included; owners listen balanced with FiiO and DIGMA players AI draft, under review

Keep in mind:

  • a slight bass emphasis (“slightly boosted lows”, “a slight V-shaped response”) — not monitor-neutral AI draft, under review
  • 340 g and a 4.5 N clamp: one owner finds them “heavy with a rather strong clamp”, the rest call them light and comfortable AI draft, under review
  • the cables are short — 1.5 m (fine with a player, short for a desktop amp); Audiomania does not stock spare cables AI draft, under review
  • the 4.4 mm balanced output of the iFi ZEN DAC Signature V2 is a line output, not a headphone output — do not connect to it AI draft, under review

Technologies and construction

  • 60 mm driver with a wood-pulp, carbon-coated diaphragm

    What it is: A 60 mm dynamic driver designed for the FT1: a wood-fibre diaphragm with carbon nano-coating, a W-surround, a 25 mm voice coil of copper-clad aluminium wire (Japan).

    Practical benefit: A stiff, light diaphragm “raised stiffness and removed resonances” (description); owners: “very punchy sound, kick drum”, “natural, soft sound without any harshness”.

  • U-tube acoustic layout and up to −26 dB isolation

    What it is: Closed cups with the U-tube layout; passive outside-noise reduction up to −26 dB (description).

    Practical benefit: “Convincing bass” with minimal leakage — suitable for the office and transport.

  • Conical front panel with an angled driver

    What it is: The driver sits on a conical panel, angled towards the ear.

    Practical benefit: “Sound reaches the ear with minimal loss”, especially in the treble (description); owner: “no mud or harshness in the treble”.

  • Solid-wood cups, adjustable headband, breathable pads

    What it is: Natural-wood housings (dark walnut or light birch) with metal parts; a wide height-adjustable headband, cups pivoting in two planes; pads with breathable fabric.

    Practical benefit: A fit for any user and comfort over long sessions — confirmed by 5+ owners; one notes a strong clamp.

  • Two detachable cables (3.5 and 4.4 mm), a 6.35 mm adapter, a hard case

    What it is: Detachable 1.5 m silver-plated copper cables: unbalanced 3.5 mm and balanced 4.4 mm, gold-plated plugs; a 6.35 mm adapter; a hard storage case.

    Practical benefit: A complete kit “with everything needed” — nothing to buy; the downsides are the 1.5 m length and no spare cables on sale.

FAQ

›Do I need an amplifier, or will a phone or laptop do?
By rule (§4.9.18): 32 Ω and 98 dB/mW → 110 dB peaks need 16 mW, i.e. 0.71 V — the “dongle/player” class (dongle_ok). An owner: “undemanding of the source, they work great from a laptop's standard output”. A phone without a 3.5 mm jack — via a USB dongle.
›Recommend a portable amplifier for the FT1
Audiomania specialist (2026-03-18): FiiO KA17 — “an excellent option, also works in desktop mode with extra power”; iFi audio hip-dac2 — “with a built-in battery… drains the phone less”; with Bluetooth — FiiO BTR17, “a really good amplifier in sound and features”.
›Do you sell a spare cable for the FT1?
“Unfortunately we do not have these cables in our range” (Audiomania specialist, 2026-03-29). The cable is detachable; two come in the box — 3.5 mm and 4.4 mm — plus a 6.35 mm adapter.
›Can I audition the FT1 with my own player in the Saint Petersburg store?
Yes: “You can audition the FT1 in Saint Petersburg” (Audiomania specialist, 2026-08-13) — including balanced 4.4 mm with your own player; check store stock before visiting.
›How do they sound — bassy or neutral?
Warm with a slight bass emphasis: “a slight V-shaped response… vocals slightly coloured, fuller”, “lows a bit boosted”, yet “bass does not press… treble does not fatigue”. For studio neutrality look at monitor models.
›Are they comfortable for long listening? Not too heavy?
340 g without cable, 4.5 N clamp. Most owners: “very light, sit well”, “comfortable over long listening”, “do not press on the ears”; one review — “a bit heavy with a strong clamp”. Breathable pads, cups pivot in two planes.
›Is the 4.4 mm balanced connection worth using?
The 4.4 mm balanced cable is included. An owner with a FiiO M23 player: “balanced sounds nicer, but the battery drains fast”. Note: the 4.4 mm socket on the iFi ZEN DAC Signature V2 is a line output — do not plug headphones into it. AI draft, under review
›How well do they isolate, and do they leak?
A closed design with the U-tube acoustic layout: per the description they cut outside noise by up to −26 dB and “stop sound leaking out” — fine for an office or transport.
›The first revision had a breaking headband — which revision do you sell?
“A new shipment of this model from China arrived in February this year” (Audiomania specialist, 2025-03-12) — i.e. current batches; 12-month warranty.

  • Николай О., Санкт-Петербург · 2026-10-17Excellentverified purchase

    Отличные наушники. В пользовании пару месяцев. На уши не давят. Комфортные. Слушаю по "балансу" с плеером DIGMA.

  • Алексей К., Рыбинск · 2026-04-08Excellentverified purchase

    Шикарные наушники с очень разборчивым звучанием, звук оказался даже лучше, чем я ожидал. Низы не давят, приятный теплый объём присутствует, середина шикарная, верха не утомляют. Всё на месте, ничего лишнего. На голове сидят удобно и комфортно. Наушники не требовательны к источнику звука. Прекрасно работают от стандартного выхода с ноутбука. Это очень-очень хорошее качество за эти деньги.

  • Валерий Б., Екатеринбург · 2026-03-25Excellentverified purchase

    Все супер. Очень нравятся!

  • Александра Т., Тольятти · 2026-03-11Excellentverified purchase

    Качественная сборка, хорошо сидят, не ощущаются тяжелыми на голове. Для меня вывели чистоту и качество звука на уровень выше, приятная покупка. Настроила под свой вкус и теперь переслушиваю всю фонотеку.

  • Павел Х., Биробиджан · 2026-03-10Excellentverified purchase

    Неплохо звучат в части басов. Он такой немного раскатистый и не резкий. Тяжеловаты и довольно сильный прижим.

  • Дмитрий С., Москва · 2026-03-09Excellentverified purchase

    Выглядят очень симпатично и качественно собраны,отличная комплектация. Комфортны при долгом прослушивании. По звуку - расстроен, но не наушниками а исходным материалом от сбер звук, с другими наушниками думал сбер звук идеален, но FiiO FT1 раскрыли правду об исходном материале сбер звук. Слушаю сбер звук -смарт самсунг а32+ЦАП FiiO KA13+балансное подключение FiiO FT1 . Для моего восприятия звука эти наушники шикарны.

  • Андрей, Москва · 2026-02-02Excellentverified purchase

    Купил сыну, он очень доволен

  • Александр Г., Красногорск · 2025-12-20verified purchase

    Очень понравились. Читайте обзоры. Действительно, немного задирают низкие, но кому-то это откровенно в кайф. А в общем доволен НЕВЕРОЯТНО. Не ожидал за эти деньги.

Audiomania expert opinion

The FT1 gathered 15 reviews at 4.95 — a rare consensus. Owners describe “very articulate sound” with warm body and bass that “does not press” yet is “slightly boosted”; treble “without mud or harshness”. It is a character for pleasure, not for monitoring. AI draft, under review[3]

In practice they are “undemanding of the source” — they run from a laptop, and balanced from a player “sounds nicer”. If you want a portable amp, an Audiomania specialist suggested the FiiO KA17, iFi hip-dac2 or the Bluetooth FiiO BTR17; we do not stock a spare cable. AI draft, under review[6]
