Just googled 'Fostex TR-70' and saw the price on a website in Thai. The listed price is 7490 Thailand Baht (around $206 USD).

check out those beefy pads.... They def watch the modding community.

So whats up w/ these. Surely someone has heard them. You can buy them on ebay easily.

 

[Raketen]

B&H has them in stock too... I'm tempted but have too much crap already

 

[Happytalk]

Anyone know if b & h has these on the floor for customers to test?

Some quick impressions: 
 
 
TR90 sounds more natural than TR80.
Bright sounding, sharp treble, fatigue.
Don't eq well with bass.
Loose fit, less cramp, not for big head.

Price of the T50RP MK2 went two-fold after modders raved about it in public and they didn't bother revamping its driver for the TH500 simply rehashing the sloppy Denon D2k shell and T50MK2 driver, long story short they've heard of us

 
 
Fostex is definitely my fav brand when it comes to headphones, can't blame them as long as it sells I guess..

Just ordered the TR90 250 ohm on amazon, scheduled to come on Wednesday. Excited to hear what these have to offer. From what I can tell a lot of shops (Amazon, B&H) are releasing these Tomorrow.

Is that for the t80 or both?

 

[xanlamin]

That's for both.

Just got these in the mail. Was extremely excited. Am now extremely disappointed. Did not think I would agree with xanlamin, but holy crap are these things fatiguing. And this is coming from someone who LOVES the T90. I don't even think I'm going to burn them in, they're just going straight back to Amazon.
