Forget you are wearing them.  With Fischer Amps’ molds customized to your ears, and the natural, smooth sound of the components, you can use the FA 500 Custom in-ears for extended periods of time with less fatigue and increased wearing comfort

Perform without limits, we’ve got your back. Reliability and service from Fischer Amps and Sennheiser are committed to keep your in-ears in service longer

Uncompromised sonic accuracy by Sennheiser TrueResponse® technology
The single wideband transducer, which is only 7 millimeter in size, covers the entire frequency range. Phase incoherency - occurring with multi-way driver systems - no longer exists. Only this technology enables sound reproduction with near-zero distortion even at maximum sound pressure; achieving up to a 100 times lower harmonic distortion than balanced armature drivers.
The sound signature of the FA 500 Custom enables a sound reproduction which allows hearing in the finest nuances.

Unique fit – yours
The FA 500 Custom are customized in-ear monitors based on the anatomical shape of your ear and the auditory canals. They are uniquely tailored to your ear shape and therefore provide perfect sound isolation from ambient noise, thus a far superior listening comfort and a stable but pleasant wearing experience during the entire performance.

Individual style desired?
No matter whether rather discreet and inconspicuous or unusual and eye-catching, customize your FA 500 Custom according to your own wishes with a range of color finishing, at no extra costs. Even special wishes and designs (e. g your band logo) can be realized. For this, simply contact Fischer Amps. We will be pleased to give you guidance.

In-ear monitoring starts with the right transducer technology
A single unimpeded sound source coupled directly to the ear offers the greatest potential for the most natural, powerful, and highly nuanced audio experience, as compared to multi-way systems found in many loudspeakers and conventional IEM systems with balanced armature drivers.
 
In multi-way systems, crossover in individual frequency ranges of the sound source for bass, midrange and treble frequencies leads to phase coherence problems and thus to a compromised sound quality. In addition, balanced armature drivers have a significantly higher degree of distortion than a dynamic driver.
 
To solve this problem Sennheiser engineered the key component called the TrueResponse® technology, made of a precision-crafted broadband transducer that covers the entire spectrum, enabling maximum dynamics with the lowest distortion factor.
 
For us, the heart of any in-ear monitor design is the smallest element - the transducer - that makes the biggest difference, especially in the small, confined space of the ear.

Since Stage monitoring is the decisive factor for a good performance

Made for the performers on the big stage, and the crew that keeps the show running behind the scenes.
The FA 500 Custom is the reference piece to create a perfect mix and the reliable tool that meets the highest requirements – in live shows on stage or side wing, at the FOH or for recordings.
Precise, cleanly resolved sound and perfect fit gives you freedom to lose yourself in the performance, to focus on the business of music production whether you’re performing or mixing.
If you are a performer, a monitor engineer, backline, or system tech, the FA 500 Custom is built to deliver consistency and reliability, gig after gig.
