平面駆動らしく音の消え際がはっきり見える素晴らしいヘッドフォン。価格も高すぎないので、平面駆動型を持っていない方はバリエーションとして１台持っておくのも良いと思う。ウッドハウジングの質感が良く、手触りや見た目の質感が良い。ハウジングの反響音も自然に聴こえる。イヤーパッドも厚みがあり、装着感も良いです。【EQ補正】補正なしでもほどよく頭外定位しますし、EQや補正ソフトの効きも良いです。自分は dSONIQ Realphones 2 を使用して聴くことが多いです。定番ヘッドフォンの1つなので、各種補正ソフトがこのヘッドフォン用の補正プロファイルを持っていることもおススメできる理由のひとつです。今は昔と違って高いFFT点数を用いた高品質なデジタルEQが実装されている製品が増えてきたので、積極的にEQ補正を試されることをおススメします。【ヘッドフォンアンプは必要】注意点としては、能率が低くインピーダンスもそれなりにあるので、ヘッドフォンアンプは必須になります。試しにウォークマン A306 につないでみたところ、最大音量にすると意外と聴けないこともなかったのですが、低音の迫力は明らかに不足していて、鳴らしきれてはいませんでした。ヘッドフォンアンプは性能さえ出てれば安くても大丈夫です。最近のオーディオインターフェースもヘッドフォンアンプが高出力になってきているので問題ないと思います。自分は DENON DA-310USB や Arturia MiniFuse 4 をつなぐことが多いです。

Bought these to turn into Argon’s. spent a couple months enjoying them as stock. But after giving them the argon conversion with new head band and ear pads….bliss for long detailed listening with a Schiit stack.

I bought it and I am currently using it with a DX3 Pro+. It sounds good but you probably want an amp slightly more powerful then the DX3 Pro+ if u really want this headset to shine at it's peak. Build Quality is phenomenal, it is comfortable and I love it.Edit:Now I own a Fosi v2 amplifier and a SMSL h300 amplifier and these headphones sound much better on those in contrast to the Topping DX 3 pro +. If you want to actually enjoy these headphones, in my opinion you need an amplifier that can do at least 4 watts per channel into 32 ohms.

Ordinate per curiosità mi hanno convinto così tanto da portarmi a vendere Focal Elegia, Monolith 1060C e Ollo Audio S4X. Ho trovato il mio sound: bassi presenti e controllati, mai rimbombanti, alti cristallini mai affaticanti e... medi davvero naturali, voci e strumenti acustici vengono riprodotti molto realisticamente. Degno di nota anche l' headstage, non molto profondo, ma ben esteso in larghezza e con una discreta tridimensionalità. Ottima la separazione degli strumenti, con voci centrate e leggermente in avanti. E poi è anche gradevole esteticamente, i padiglioni in mogano le conferiscono un certo pregio. Io ho sostituito i pads di serie con un paio in pelle, angolati ed il suono ne ha ulteriormente giovato. Non è difficilissima da pilotare, meglio però se si utilizza un dac/ampli dedicato, al fine di farla esprimere al meglio. Io uso un SMSL DO100 e un Lake People MKII, e mi godo l'ottimo risultato.

I bought this headphone new on 10/1/21 and the one I received has zero creaking problems that many have complained about. Seems that Fostex has fixed this problem. I also own the Fostex T50RP, which I have modded myself and used for several years. I love my modded T50RP's but I recently damaged it beyond repair. After reading the glowing reviews of the T60RP I decided to upgrade. The sound is more refined with better bass, but I was not happy with the supplied leather ear pads. In my opinion they seriously harm the soundstage these cans are capable of. I replaced them with the Shure Alcantara pads from my damaged T50's and now the sound is glorious in all respects. The Shure pads are more comfortable too, and look great and fit perfectly on the T60's.

I've owned ATH-m50x, ATH-m40x, and HE350 on a Schiit stack. I've bought and returned HE560s because they weren't worth the price and the sound signature was too thin. I've never heard another Fostex pair of headphones, so I cannot compare to the T50RPs with or without mods.All I can say is that these cans are the best cans I've ever heard, except for maybe the HE1000 that I demoed at a trade show. They are so damn thick, rich, and precise! Bass is really present, smooth, and detailed. Vocals aren't as forward as something like a m40x, but are extremely filled out and pleasant to listen to. Soundstage isn't very wide, but the placement is very precise. Gaming in these is really immersive.They are also very comfortable out of the box. I tend to replace my Audio Technica gear with Brainwavz hybrid or velour just for comfort. But the pleather pads are very nice and I haven't felt the need to experiment. Build quality is beautiful and feels robust. The 3.5mm jack is super convenient. The cable that comes with it is high quality and sleeved. If I had a balanced system I'd spring for the four pole balanced cable.I hear something in the Schiit Magni range is the lowest power gear you should use, because they're pretty power hungry. Word on the street is that if you try running it off say an iphone or even a Dragon Fly Red, you won't get the full sound signature, even if they are driven to loud volumes. These are not portable headphones.If you're in the price range and have an amp that can power them, it's a no-brainer.Update 1/19/2019: Unfortunately I have to take off two stars because the left ear cup’s hinge has developed a persistent creaking any time I move my head or jaw. That’s a pretty serious flaw for a headphone of this price tier, and completely ruins the user experience.

Well i will start this review by saying...this is the best sounding headphone i have ever heard. And i have tried a lot of headphones. Remember that audio is a very personal thing and that what i find awesome it might be just good to you. In any case, there are two things about this headphone that to me they do better than any other headphone i have tried and those two things are the imaging and highs. The imaging on this headphone is super amazingly precise. There's so much clarity and resolution. There's a song that before using this headphone, in certain parts of the music i thought that only one singer was singing. With this headphone i can clearly heard other singers behind the usual one and i can clearly heard woman voices and men voices singing behind. For me that was a nice revelation. In gaming the super precise imaging has helped me a lot with footsteps and enemy's coming from different places. The highs are sweet, ok maybe thats not a good description but to me they are sweet to my ears. The highs are sweet, clear, detailed. The mids are awesome too. The voice clarity of this headphone is amazing. There's so much texture and resolution and clarity in the mids that...ufff i have no words to describe it. The low end is, to me, perfect. If you like crazy amount of bass look for another headphone because this one is very very detailed and controlled with the low end. The bass is perfect to me, very tight and impactful. Everything about the sound is just awesome.The build quality is spectacular too. They are BEAUTIFUL. That wood is so nice. The headphone is very sturdy and well made. Detachable cable! Yeiii! Awesome! But fostex didn't stop there! fostex did the wiring inside to support balance connections too! Awesome! The cable that comes with the headphone is very good, kinda short if you dont have your amp next to you on your desk but...you can buy any extension you want. The pads are super comfortable. They are of very very good quality. Man this is the best headphone i have ever tried.

A very well made, braided cable with Fostex branded gold connectors on each end. The 2.5mm end looks fragile but seems quite sturdy in use.Bought this to complete the 'cable' section of my first balanced setup. Had to drop a star because the price is pretty high but the sound is sublime, a perfect companion to the T60RP's.
