Wow. These may turn out to be a steal. I'm gonna really burn these in and give them a good listen before I consider doing any mods.

I held back from getting the TH900 bcos while I'm all for excellent bass it shouldn't be at the expense of the mids. Not really a fan of V-shaped sigs. So glad I joined this drop bcos it seems like Fostex's greatest hits in one headphone haha.

YES!!! woo hoo. glad I bought the carbon instead. 


I did the same.  I wanted the TH-X00 but I had ordered the Carbon 2 weeks ago and I decided to order the Mojo on Black Friday instead of the TH-X00.  I really hope these headphones are offered again next spring now.  
 
Enjoy your TH-X00 everyone who got in on them

There wasn't a Mojo deal on black Friday that I missed was there? I looked but didn't see one.

Been eyeing Ether C, but got this instead.  Think I made it out ahead on this one.

Ether C are fantastic, had the opportunity to spend half an hour listening. Sound great, comfortable and look amazing with those carbon fibre cups. However, even before listening to the TH-X00 I can say that the C does not worth four times the price.

  Would these pads work on the THX?:

Look like the Hifiman focuspads. If they fit I would like to purchase these for my THX.

 
 
Those are the hybrid ones, an earlier poster commented that the Pleather fit the fostex. I order the angled brainwavz to try on my fostex coming.
 


Yes, being hybrid is what I like most about them.

Just when I thought I was done with Head-Fi, it pulls me back in! Argh!
 
Needless to say I'm in on the drop too, just joined earlier today. All of my current headphones happen to be Japanese-made so I took it to be a sign....

Me, too! I was doing quite well for about a year, then Massdrop just kills it these last few months. I'm now debating how I'm going to thin the herd, what needs to go and not, once the TH-X00 arrives.
