Purchase Fiio FT5 from Apos Audio here: A BIG thanks to Fiio for providing the FT5 for review, much appreciated. The Fiio FT5 offers a rich, full, natural presentation that can be altered between two different pad types. But is the FT5 competitive with the Moondrop Para and ThieAudio Wraith?

I have limited, real-life experience with recording, mixing and mastering gear. I have been involved since my teenage years with various churches as an amateur sound booth technician. Please take these thoughts, opinions and reasonings as just that, my honest audiophile thoughts, opinions and reasonings.
