FIBAE 5 signifies the next step of Custom Art’s IEM development – a new, uncharted, dimension of sound. We tuned FIBAE 5 to be energetic, visceral and powerful, to deliver heavy but perfectly controlled sub-bass, natural, warm midrange and fast and unconstrained highs. Our goal was a smooth, bassy and detailed sound signature with an unmistakable Custom Art’s house sound flavor.

FIBAE 5 presents a modern approach tuning with an increased bass and highs quantity keeping the overall balance. Our Pressure Optimizing Design (P.O.D.) normalizes the pressure in front of Dynamic Driver, which expands the soundstage and enhances the musical image.

We dedicate FIBAE 5 to audiophiles and enthusiasts, who like more colored sound, with a bit more bass quantity and who are eager to experience the newest technologies without compromising the sound quality. FIBAE 5 is also a great choice for drummers, bassists and DJs – professionalists who expect the most pronounced and deepest bass from their monitors, without losing a single detail. FIBAE 5 delivers punchy deep lows, smooth mids and insanely fast and detailed highs with an accurate timber – a modern tuning, combined with a slight V-shape approach, resulting in fun and enjoyable mainstream signature.

Ear impressions

Impressions have to be made from soft silicone material. Dreve, Egger and Westone brands are recommended. It is suggested to use foam or cotton swabs to protect eardrum.

Impressions have to be made past the second bend and shall include: full concha, helix, crus helix, tragus and antitragus.

After injecting impression material into ear the mass needs to be pushed with thumb to remove air bubbles and reduce impression wastage. Typically material cures within 5 minutes. Impressions cannot be taken out before that period.

During the process, mouth should be open with bite-block inserted between teeth in order to maximally stabilize the jaw. If a bite block is unavailable then teeth might rest against something of similar size, for example a thumb. Keeping mouth open at about 2.5 cm in relaxed manner without talking and moving is required for achieving full comfort and isolation of final product.
