FiiO JT3
A 50mm driver with PEK+PU composite diaphragm and 80Ω impedance creates wide soundstage and tight bass, with the open-back design enhancing spatial accuracy. The aluminum-magnesium frame and memory foam earpads ensure long-wear comfort, and the detachable cable with mic and 6.35mm adapter offers flexible connectivity. Ideal for home studio monitoring and positional audio gaming, its poor call quality limits it to music and games.
