The Fostex TH900 were legendary headphones – highly regarded both by home audiophiles and in the studio. The TH900 Mk2 carries on that proud tradition with potentially improved performance via detachable cables enabling the headphones to be connected in a fully balanced format.
The Fostex TH900 Mk2 Pearl White design draws on two unique Fostex-developed technologies, firstly their magnetic circuit featuring a 50mm driver unit with 1.5 Tesla of flux density, and secondly their proprietary Biodyna vibration plate; a diaphragm which offers huge dynamic range with very little distortion.
The combination of these specialist technologies culminates in a super rich sound of powerful low end, a gentle defined mid-range and a clear well rounded high-end.
Detachable Cabling
Fostex’s specially designed detachable cable port allows for easy switching of balanced and unbalanced cabling. Each TH900 Mk2 ships with a 7N grade cable made from OFC 7N grade 99.9999% oxygen free copper, sleeved in a durable duralumin material.
Anniversary Tuning
As with former special editions, the Pearl White model features ‘anniversary tuning’, a special curve inherited from Fostex’s Sapphire Blue TH900 Mk II model from 2018.

Audeze LCD-XC @ Audiologica the Audeze LCD-XC are closed-back audiophile headphones which are sensitive enough to be driven by portable audio devices
Audeze’s patent-pending Fazor elements improve clarity, focus and the already spectacular holographic imaging. Two Fazor elements are placed just outside the two magnet structures that surround the diaphragm. …
Patent-pending Fazor elements guide and manage the flow of sound for improved frequency extension and a more enveloping soundstage. The X is sensitive enough to be driven directly by portable players like iPods, iPhones, and the better smartphones but an external amplifier produces better results.
