Fostex T60RP Headphone 5-stars Reviews

great sound and comfortable

Bought to replace bad dt 990s, they're much more comfy, sound much cleaner and although heavier they don't feel like it.

How good is this headphone? I sold my HD650 and D2000 after this

pros -

I haven't heard or owned more expensive headphones so can't comment but i think it is the best i heard in this price range. Vocal and instruments like piano (i am an amateur pianist and plays everyday) sounds more real-life and natural with this headphone than the other two i owned. Bass is deep, tight and effortless. The ear pad and headband are very comfortable and the wooden ear cub is well made and gives it a very luxurious touch

cons-

You do need a powerful source to drive it. The headphone is a bit heavy so the neck gets a bit tiring after wearing for a long period (like 3-4 hrs)

Fostex' finest T-RP headphone ever made!

The T60RP headphone by Fostex is a huge improvement over the standard T-RP models in every way!

Pros:

- Overrall comfort is improved with better ear cushioning and a included headstrap.

- Better build quality with real wood earcups.

- The sound is more natural and detailed compared to the great sounding T50RP.

Cons.

- The ear cushions can feel sweaty after an hour or so due to the fake leather material that is resting your head while you're using them.

- Needs a good headphone amplifier to drive loud enough as expected from the others in the T-RP series

Overall I do highly recommend these for music listening!
