The A5000 is equipped with a 6mmφ f-Core DU transducer developed and designed entirely in-house. The diaphragm, voice coil, magnet, magnetic circuit, and adhesives, along with the production equipment, are newly designed. The transducer front housing material is brass, which is less affected by magnetic force and has a higher specific gravity than general aluminum. To improve the diaphragm's temporal response performance, the voice coil uses ultra-thin 30μ CCAW and is assembled with a minimal amount of adhesive to thoroughly reduce the weight of moving parts. Additionally, by carefully pressing the diaphragm in a small batch of about 1/3 the usual amount, Final Audio has minimized pressure irregularity and achieved a consistent diaphragm without distortion.

Sound quality has been designed based on Final's unique evaluation method established during the development of the flagship A8000 headset. In addition to a transparent sound (when localized sounds are clearly heard at a distance), even thinner sounds can be heard in the lower midrange, giving each sound a sense of depth. In addition, with its easy-to-handle braided cable comes standard a newly designed silver-plated soft 2-pin cable developed for the A5000.

NEW SOUND QUALITY ASSESSMENT

The development of the A series began with the establishment of a new evaluation method based on the analysis of the relationship between sound quality and physical characteristics. The initial result was the A8000. We listen to recorded music with different qualities and volumes. However, in conventional evaluation methods, the subjective evaluation is generally carried out under fixed conditions, such as the sound pressure that the sound presents. This makes it difficult to judge a good sound based on typical listening techniques. The A5000 uses a new evaluation method for sound creation that is tailored to actual music listening situations.

A CUSTOM FEEL AND FIT

The A5000 builds on the IEM-optimized case design established in the development of the B-series, and achieves an even better fit. Pressure determines comfort.

The traditional method of holding using the repulsive force of silicone (eg selecting an organic shape that favors ergonomics) seems fine, but it always puts pressure on the ears. Before you know it, the pressure on the ears accumulates fatigue. Compared to the shape that touches the ear with a large organic surface, the shape that limits the contact area is designed to be minimally oppressive. The A5000 shell is held in place at three points for a stable fit: 1 point in the ear socket, 1 point in the ear cup and 1 point in the tragus. If there is no pressure at all contact points, it will feel like the headset is custom made and extremely comfortable.

NEW DESIGN SILVER PLATED 2-PIN SOFT CABLE

The included cable is a newly designed product developed for the A5000. The silver-coated 8-core OFC cable that composes it is smooth and easy to handle. The 2-pin connector is a high-precision product developed in-house and uses the φ0.78 standard, considered the most versatile.

EAR HOOKS

Earhooks are helpful in reducing contact noise and when worn will dramatically reduce the unpleasant gurgling sound (cable contact noise) that occurs when the cable touches the body while walking. Our conventional earhooks are thinner than general earhooks, and have a comfort that makes you forget you're wearing them because they don't feel like a foreign object compared to cables containing wires or resin. This is a type (TYPE B) with a locking mechanism that can be fixed firmly to the cable.
