The F.audio FA4 Go to product viewer dialog for this item.

Step-by-Step Update Process

1. Uninstall any previous FA4 drivers from Device Manager (if you’ve plugged them in before).
2. Do NOT plug the IEMs into your ears. Lay them on a desk, nozzles facing up.
3. Hold the “Volume Down” button on the IEM’s inline module (yes, the FA4 has a weird inline control pod – keep it pressed).
4. While holding Vol Down, plug the USB-C into the IEMs, then into your PC. Windows should detect “FA4 DFU Mode.”
5. Launch the updater as Administrator. It will show “Connected – Device: FA4, Bootloader v1.2.”
6. Click “Load Firmware” and select the .dfu file (approx 2.1MB).
7. Click “Update.” The progress bar will stall at 30% for about 20 seconds – this is normal.
8. The IEMs will emit three short beeps (around 1kHz, 2kHz, then a low 50Hz thump). That’s the DSP resetting.
9. Wait for “Update Successful.” Unplug, wait 10 seconds, then re-plug normally.
