    Fostex TH900 Impressions & Discussion Thread

    One vote to Woo Audio WA7+TP from here. I have also owned Schiit Lyr2 and both of these amps I have used with TH-900mk2's. I rolled several tubes with Lyr2 but I never found as smooth sound as I wanted. There still was a bit too much edge and maybe even sharpness in the sound. Now with the...

    Fostex TH900 Impressions & Discussion Thread

    I have been using TH-900mk2's with Moon Audio Silver Dragon ver2. cable which is made for Sennheiser HD600. So the polarity is inverted. With my experiences this takes the sound more out of your head and up. Naturally this is subjective, but there is a difference. One good way to test the...

    Fostex TH900 Impressions & Discussion Thread

    I'm using WA7TP with Lawton level 2 modded TH900mk2. I have warm Mullard tubes in the power and I'm using Moon Audio Silver Dragon cable. This set up sounds quite warm to my ears, piercing treble is totally gone. I use to run these phones with Schiit Lyr2 and that set up was too bright even...

    Fostex TH900 MkII

    That I didn't even think about, good point! It is true that using the connectors this way, keeps the metal pins 'stretched' all the time because they cannot lay on the groove of the pin.

    Fostex TH900 MkII

    One comment regarding the cable connectors of the TH900mk2's;   I just got Moon Audio Silver Dragon V2 cable which is made for Sennheiser HD650 and the situation is following: -Polarity is different on the connectors, that is definitely true -Connectors don't 'click' because there is more...

    Fostex TH900 Impressions & Discussion Thread

    In case someone is interested I can give some own impressions about the full Lawton mod on TH900's.   I have the full Lawton mod installed on TH900mk2, without the cable. I also went step by step, having first the level 1 mod installed and then changed the cups.   My impressions +/- on the...

    Fostex TH900 Impressions & Discussion Thread

    I have the older version of the Ifi micro iDSD, bought on 2014. I use it as a dac with TH900mk2's.   As a dac it is bright, at least compared to other dacs I have tested. So if you listen TH900's directly from Ifi the treble might be too much (or too piercing) in some recordings.   I use the...

    Fostex TH900 Impressions & Discussion Thread

    I have owned both of them and I did some side by side listening to them. I ended up keeping the TH-900 and selling the LCD-2. Primary reason to get the TH-900 was my family situation, small kid in house, I can't disturb others with my listening. Still in the end I found myself liking the TH-900...

    Fostex TH900 MkII

    Thanks for these tips! First I have to say that I'll definitely continue tube rolling, so its very nice to have suggestions for that.   Secondly I didn't even think about bypassing the iDSD filters, so that'll be an interesting test, good tip also.   What comes to the sound, I'm not after a...

    Fostex TH900 MkII

    I know that this is not the Lyr2 tube rolling thread, but some of you seem to be using Lyr2 with TH900, so I'll ask anyway that which tubes do you prefer?   I bought the TH900mk2's beside the LCD-2's because I needed pair of closed cans (cannot wake up the baby at night). The sound signature...

    Schiit Lyr Tube Rollers

    This might be a stupid question, but does the date of the manufacture influence the sound? Behind the link are almost the same tubes that I have now in test use, only difference is the date (if it is the date?) A 1/86.  ...

    Hifiman HE1000 Planar Dynamic Headphone

    Thank you for this post. I'm usually only reading this forum and started to question my sanity because I didn't find the V2 vs. V1 discussion anymore. In my opinion there wasn't such bad comments about the release of the new version, only few critical opinions. So its quite strange that it got...
