Hi guys, i had visited Japan last month for a vacation, went pass a headphone store, quickly got attracted by Final Audio Adagio V, very nice design and unique packaging, after i tried it, now it has become my companion in my portable rig rclxms.gif rclxms.gif

Was wonder there isn't any Final Audio Fan Club here, so i decide to take the initiative to invite all the Final Audio Design User, or upcoming user to join for discussion about this awesome brand biggrin.gif biggrin.gif .

Final Audio Design

Official Final Audio Design Website


Changing the Concept of Earphones

Music is “Power.”
This is the basic premise behind final audio design.
It is not just about music constructed out of soft and sweet sounds;
It is “Pianissimo” – deeper than the abyss – and “Fortissimo” – with crushing force.
This is our belief; delivering the sensation and reenactments of the performers’ outpouring of passion.
final audio design is a never-heard-before, Distinctive brand bound to change the concept of earphones.

1974

Kanemori Takai, the current President, founded Final Audio Design when he developed a product line of high-end MC cartridges and booster transformers.
In the 35 years that followed, Final Audio has consistently created new, exciting high-grade products that pursue natural audio playback in ways that exceed one’s common sense. These include “Parthenon” – the super-heavyweight grade analog player that has won the attention of noted worldwide audio magazines, “Music” – the highly-praised high-end amplifier, “DARUMA” – the uniquely designed audio insulater that makes use of ball-bearing mechanisms, and OPUS204 – the stainless Aulhorn speaker that weighs 800 kilograms.

2007-

Began collaboration with Molex Japan, the world’s second largest connector maker, for the development of earphones and speakers.

2009-

Began the sales of the final audio design brand.

with the weight and material they use, it is totally out of usual headphone design concept. they are started towards more user friendly product, such as their heaven, adagio series.

They look shiny and yummy =D

I believe they are confident that have their own technology based on their vast experience in designing horn speakers.
Well, when you listen to them, you will understand, they resembled the horn type speaker signature. smile.gif

You have to use tighter tips. Bigger ones I mean.

yea, sometimes the size of tips can cause the fitting loose especially when running, so in the end will result in high treble, less bass due to insert inappropriate.
