    In Stock Now: Noble Audio FALCON PRO

    Hmmm what to say. I've had my pair for a few hours now and been messing around and listening to them non-stop. I have owned Bluetooth headphones before but never wireless iems. Been avoiding the Bluetooth because I just don't think the technology is there yet to satisfy my purist ways. The...

    Can anyone make a comparison to a darkvoice?

    Elemental Watson Class-A Valve/Mosfet Hybrid Headphone Amplifier (Review added)

    I am looking for a tube amp in this price range. Can anyone make a comparison to a Dark voice?

    Fostex T60RP

    Could it perhaps be the fact that they are b stock that the qaulity is not as good? Definitely return them if you are not happy. I had the same experience with the pads. As you move the driver away from the ear you definitely lose the clarity that fostex intended which is why they used such a...

    Fostex T60RP

    I am beginning to suspect that something may be wrong here. I say this because you may be the only one that finds the bass totally out of control and bleeding into the mids. I have all the ZMF pads and none of them is causing problems, not even when used on the T20 RP MkIII. Could it be that...

    Fostex T60RP

    I can't wait to hear your more detailed description of your mods. Which ZMF pads did you end up with? I actually just took my ZMF pads back off and replaced it with the stock pads. The ZMFs are so comfy, but I thought they really degraded the sound quality quite a bit. I had to open up all the...

    No worries, I just want to make sure people don't do anything to damage their headphones!

    The link you posted is for "specialist wd40" which is a silicone based product, but regular wd40 contains up to 25% petroleum derivative and is not silcone based

    Fostex T60RP

    I would use some caution when using a petroleum based lubricant on plastic. I'm not sure what polymer the plastic used for the headphones is made from, but adding a petroleum based lubricant (especially over time) could cause the plastic to become brittle if it is an amorphous plastic. Not...

    Fostex T60RP

    Dare I quote myself... Just wanted to add some images for the bass port mod in case others want to try. All you need is a little high density foam. Here is an imgur link since it is failing to allow me to add photos directly. https://imgur.com/a/H9PHfPb And yes, those are the ZMF Lamskins if...

    Fostex T60RP

    I honestly lean toward the HE560 as my preference in overall sound quality and signature after having the T60RP long enough to get a good feel for them. I think that the only place the HE560 may perform worse is in the mid range. I sent my rattling pair back and after only using the T60RP for a...

    Fostex T60RP

    I honestly was getting pretty bored of these cans with the low end really missing for me and the mayflower ring just being so boomy/overwhelming (in a bad way) and uncontrolled that it just sounded terrible. I honestly wouldn't recommend it, even considering how others perceive sounds, the...

    Fostex T60RP

    I did the Mayflower ring mod. The bass is definitely increased. Sounds boomy and uncontrolled to me though. Is this within expectation based on your experience. I would love to be able to have a more controlled sound or maybe a slight reduction in volume to make it sound less boomy and stop it...

    Fostex T60RP

    I think it is something lost in translation from Japanese to English. It is even on their website https://www.fostex.jp/20160721/8206/. Could potentially be the name for their "proprietary" phase technology.
