    Fostex TH900 Impressions & Discussion Thread

    Quote: I prefer the NAD, but I still like the DP-1 for its DAC.  Thanks Purrin!   Purrin's descriptions and comparison between the two DACs is spot on and Anaxalus's last comment about DP-1 is too.  I've paired it with my Yamamoto HA-02 and W3000ANV for my bedroom rig.  It's quite...

    Sorry, haven't checked this thread in a while; I had been pm-ing with n3rdling and he has my equipment listed, but I guess I was overlooked for table space because I didn't post it.  I'm bringing:   Yamamoto HA-02 April Music Eximus DP-1 Fostex HP-P1 Pure I-20 (not on the list, but...

    My cups do not swivel evenly either, but they fit me all right.

    Moon Audio Reviews

    I recently purchased an Eximus DP-1 and before that, a fostex HP-P1.  Both were smooth transactions.  Drew always responds quickly to any questions that I have; he's a pleasure to deal with.

    New Flagship from Audio-Technica: ATH-W3000ANV, 50th Anniversary Headphones

    I didn't think the bass was heavy then or now.  In fact, for me, it could use just a wee bit more.  It's just that it sounded loose/boomy to me when I first got them.      edit: Looked at the Describing Sound glossary.  I shouldn't have said "boomy" because, I don't know what bass at 125...

    Quote: I thought the bass sounded a bit boomy at first, but within the first day it tightened up nicely.

    New Flagship from Audio-Technica: ATH-W3000ANV, 50th Anniversary Headphones

    Quote: I like it, but I don't have much for comparison.  I have a Fostex HP-P1, the HA-02, and the Zana Deux.  I have the HA-02 for my bedside rig and am happy with that, but I was curious about the Zana Deux and after digging around and reading more about it I got one.  To me the HA-02...

    I think they're worth it.  Don't look back; just enjoy them.   I got hold of an older Zana Deux and I'm loving W3000ANV with it.  I'm going to use Yamamoto HA-02 for the bedside rig.

    Yes, in the beginning, mine seemed to spring back a bit, so I increased the pressure that I used to bend it a little at a time until it would hold the new shape.

    If you can get the tension in the band right it will work with that slight tension that is in the wings to make a snug, comfortable fit.  The cups are angled a bit like a "V" even when you put them on.  I presume it's to follow the shape of the head.  I don't think my head is large, but I have a...
