FAQs
What does 'sound image localization' mean?
'Sound image localization' refers to the ability of the earphones to accurately place sounds in a three-dimensional space around the listener. This helps you identify the precise direction and distance of audio elements, which is particularly beneficial in gaming for detecting enemy positions.
Are these earphones good for active noise cancellation?
The Final VR500 earphones feature *passive* noise isolation, which relies on a physical seal to block out external sound. They do not have active noise cancellation (ANC) technology, which uses microphones and electronics to cancel noise. For effective isolation, a good seal with the ear tips is essential.
How do I ensure the best passive noise isolation?
The key to effective passive noise isolation is to select the ear tip size that creates a complete seal within your ear canal. If you can hear a lot of external noise, try a different ear tip size. The earphones should feel snug but not uncomfortable.
Can I use these for phone calls?
The Final VR500 earphones are primarily designed for audio playback and gaming. They do not typically include an integrated microphone for phone calls or voice chat unless specifically stated in the product's detailed specifications, which is not mentioned in the provided information.
What materials are the earphones made from?
The Final VR500 Earphones are constructed from plastic materials.
Do these earphones require a special amplifier?
No, the Final VR500 Earphones are designed to be driven by standard audio outputs and do not require a dedicated headphone amplifier for typical use with smartphones, computers, or consoles.
Troubleshooting
No sound from one or both earphones
Ensure the 3.5mm jack is fully inserted into the audio source. Check the audio balance settings on your device. Try plugging the earphones into a different device to rule out a source issue. Inspect the cable for any visible damage.
Low volume or poor sound quality
Confirm the ear tips are creating a proper seal in your ears. Try different ear tip sizes. Clean the ear tips and the earphone nozzle. Check the volume levels on both your device and the playback source.
Discomfort during wear
Experiment with the different sizes of ear tips provided to find the best fit for your ear canal. Ensure the cable is routed comfortably, either over or under your ears, depending on your preference.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
To set up your Final VR500 Earphones, ensure you have a device with a standard 3.5mm audio jack. Insert the earphone jack firmly into the audio source. Experiment with the included ear tips to find the size that provides the most comfortable and secure fit, as this is crucial for achieving optimal passive noise isolation and sound quality.
Compatibility:
These earphones are compatible with any device featuring a 3.5mm headphone port, including most smartphones, tablets, laptops, PCs, and gaming consoles (e.g., PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch).
Care:
To care for your earphones, gently wipe the earbuds and cable with a dry or slightly damp soft cloth after use. Avoid exposing them to excessive moisture, extreme temperatures, or direct sunlight. Store them in a protective case or pouch when not in use to prevent damage to the drivers and cable. Periodically clean the ear tips to maintain hygiene and ensure a proper seal.
