FAudio / FA2330

FAudio Minor is a next-generation dynamic earphone that uses a new material for the diaphragm. By using a new material called ""beryllium-coated medical fiber diaphragm"" and combining it with a ""triple acoustic chamber"" housing that fully utilizes the driver's performance, it realizes a new sound that is different from conventional single dynamic earphones.

■ New material diaphragm developed independently ""Medical fiber x Beryllium""
・The dynamic driver, which is essential in determining the sound of dynamic earphones, uses a new material diaphragm (diaphragm) designed and developed independently by FAudio. This new material diaphragm is a diaphragm made of medical fiber material that is as soft as human skin, and is coated with beryllium, which is considered to be technically difficult. By covering it with beryllium, we have adjusted the rigidity, weight, and damping performance of the diaphragm and developed a diaphragm with the highest sound quality advantage. The characteristics of medical fiber are combined with the characteristics of beryllium to achieve a new dimension of sound that has never been seen before.

■ Triple Acoustic Chamber Structure (T.B.A.C)
・The structure of the earphone housing, which is the key to driver tuning, is precisely calculated, like the enclosure of a speaker. The robust aluminum alloy earphone housing is equipped with three acoustic chambers (air chambers) that are responsible for driver tuning. The two acoustic chambers optimize the housing volume and control the airflow inside the earphone housing, bringing out the potential of the dynamic driver. The exquisitely controlled dynamic driver reproduces everything from low to high frequencies, producing a wonderful sound. The last acoustic chamber is used in the sound tube, which controls the air pressure on the eardrum and driver to improve the resolution of the low range.

■Aluminum alloy housing + stainless steel sound tube

- Earphone housings are always made with the utmost care. The housing is made of extremely robust 6061-T6 aluminum alloy and precisely molded with the latest CNC machines. By cutting out a robust aluminum block with a CNC machine, a housing that has little resonance and can achieve high-quality sound as an enclosure is completed. The shape of the earphone housing is also ergonomically designed to prevent fatigue even when listening for long periods of time. The sound tube, which is deeply involved in sound tuning, is made of stainless steel. It prevents the material's unique ringing and delivers low distortion and sound close to the original sound.

■ Silver-plated copper conductor earphone cable
- The included earphone cable is made of four silver-plated copper conductors, and the jacket (coating) uses a medical-grade PVC jacket with excellent durability and oxidation resistance. This earphone cable uses a cable design that is widely supported among many cable designs, and is easy to handle, supple and flexible. The earphone terminal uses a gold-plated beryllium copper custom 2-pin terminal. It uses a terminal that is highly conductive and easy to re-cable, and is widely acclaimed.

■ Original silicone ear tips
- FAudio offers silicone ear tips developed in-house for its universal earphones. As the name suggests, the ""FA Vocal"" has been crafted to improve the audibility of the vocal line, and is specially tuned by changing the length of the nozzle and the coating of the inner wall. The other ""FA Instrument"" is tuned to focus on the sound of musical instruments, and is characterized by its tight low range.
