The bottom of this pdf shows a headphone stand.. looks like Fostex are abandoning the TH900 wire one.

Thanks for the spec sheet MDCLXVI.  The TH-600 appear to be less sensitive than the TH-900 at 94db/mw, compared to the 100db/mw for the TH-900.  A tad lighter to at 370g as well (400g for TH-900's).
 
Since regrettably selling my D7000's, I've been looking for a replacement and these look to fit the bill.
 
Keep the information coming.

From that link (http://www.fostex.jp/news/326) someone just posted :
 
TH600 will feature the same eggshell membrane protein material for pads as the TH900, namely Idemitsu Grancuir.
 
[size=medium]● optimize the acoustic performance I improve the dispersion and damping of the resonance by Piezon'Chit'o[*Shi] was applied to the inside of the housing.[/size]
 
(So it's not just empty inside the magnesium cups; there is Piezon Chito[*Shi] applied)
 
And it uses their latest "Bio-dyna" drivers, which designation was never applied to the "Microfiber" diaphragm of the D7000 as far as I've looked into it when I was anticipating the TH900.

A look inside the TH900 for comparison (it's not empty either, it looks like cotton wool batting). from this excellent post: http://www.head-fi.org/t/595683/fostex-th900-impressions-discussion-thread/2790#post_9006193

Interesting, fiberloft, that's what MarkL used in earlier version of the mod but then advised against it as it had some negative effect on mids or something.

Always seems weird to me that various $2000 headphone uses what looks like simple cotton wool batting. Just looks so cheap to me even if it works properly, I expect some futuristic structural *insert fancy advertising term* cotton web or something. Like my LCD-2's have a piece of black felt covering the driver.

Be glad it's not toilet paper.

I wonder if anyone has tried whatever he uses now to damp their TH900...

Interesting that Mark didn't mention anything about fiberloft inside, are we sure that TH900 on those pictures wasn't modded by owner.

I remember reading about an HD800 mod by Purrin or something that required toilet paper or something of the like.
