    Closed full-sized headphones for extended time listening

    Hi head-fi, long time lurker here. I'm looking for non-fatiguing over-ear closed-back headphones for up to 300$ for daily listening at work - I pretty much work while constantly listening to music, so like 6-8 hours per day. Previously had the option to use speakers, which I prefer, but the...

    Driver updates for the Fostex HP series??

    I hear the drivers are bunk on the Windows 10 content creators update. That's been out for a long while now. I'm in the market for an amp for my new TH900s and was looking hard at the HP-A8MK2 or HP-A4BL, but with support like this, I'm not so sure. Has there been any word on a fix? Any...

    Considering Fostex TH900

    I have been searching for a good closed back headphone to compliment my setup (see signature at bottom) and I think I have found what I need. I need something with a bit more bass than typical offerings such as the HD, LCD, and HE lines without sacrificing detail. As my current headphone list...

    Which is the better buy? The Sennheiser HD 6XX (HD 650) or the Fostex Th-X00?

    Hello everyone, My question is as it appears in the title. I have thoroughly reviewed both of the headphones being offered by Massdrop, the HD 6XX for 199.99, and the Fostex Th-X00 for 399.99, and the reviews for both are glowing. Actually, the reviews of both headphones are so good and use...

    65+ Headphones, 7 DAC/Amps & 1 persons opinion. Oh my!

    So I started my journey looking for portable on-ear headphones that would give me a proper sense of tone and musical presence. As you will see, I could not find something that satisfies my needs, although I found some that came close. What has resulted is an insane, obsessive headfirst dive into...

    B&W P9 vs Fostex TH-900

    Hey guys, I know these two headphones aren't really meant to be everyday items but I'm really sick of crappy gym music and having to listen to crappy earbuds when studying at the library, so I've narrowed it down to just these two closed back audiophile headphones. Now I love clarity and...

    Any full size bluetooth that are similar to the TH-X00?

    Hey Folks, I absolutely love my Fostex TH-X00's but as you probably know..they aren't very portable. I walk around 2 miles a day and have found Bluetooth to be invaluable. I'd really like something that sounds similar to the the Fostex can's but with Bluetooth. I know that's kind of a tall order...

    A question about Hifiman Edition X v2's, and my system in general

    Right now, I'm running HE-560's connected to a MAC 1900 amplifier, which is connected to a Schiit Modi 2 Uber, which then connects to my PC. The first thing I'm curious about is the difference in audio signature from the 560's to the HEX v2. I generally prefer neutral sound signatures and can...

    Will we ever see new high impedance headphones?

    It's been a few years now since we got the HD800 and T1, and it seems to me that all new headphones being released are planars or low impedance dynamics, like the Fostexs or K812.    Do you guys think we'll see new high impedance headphones anytime soon? It would be great to see something like...
