Fostex TH-909 Hi-Fi headphones

The Fostex TH-909 Hi-Fi headphones are the high-end open load version of the Fostex TH-909 MK2 headphones. It has all the characteristics of the latter, improving the feeling of space and opening.

FOSTEX TH-909: CHARACTERISTICS

Fostex has completely redesigned the acoustic circuit and the drivers. These TH-909 headphones offer a wider dynamic range with very low distortion thanks to the use of a 50mm diameter driver, coupled with a magnet of 1.5 Tesla!

The patented "Biodyna" membrane (a mix of cellulosic and inorganic fibres) provides excellent reproduction of low frequencies and mid-ranges, but especially perfect reproduction of high frequencies.

Elegant metal grilles with a double-layered structure are used for the opening behind the speaker.

An ET-H3.0N7UB high-purity (99.99999%) OFC (oxygen-free copper) cable is included as standard. It is equipped with rhodium removable connectors, offering a perfect conductivity and an excellent resistance to abrasion and corrosion.

FOSTEX TH-909: housings

The Fostex TH-909 housings receive a finish of Japanese lacquer, made by craftsmen in the “Sa-kamoto” factory in Japan.

The ear cushions are very resistant and comfortable. They have been designed to improve the listening quality.

FOSTEX TH-909: ASSOCIATION

Its impedance of 25 ohms allows it to be associated to several devices.

However, to take advantage of all its qualities, we advise you to equip yourself with a "real" amplifier for audiophile headphones.

FOSTEX TH-909: TEST AND LISTENING

The restitution is very aerated and open. The definition is present on all registers. This model is among the most natural and nuanced Hi-Fi headphones we have had the chance to listen to.

It enables transparency and neutrality.

The bandwidth is impressive (5 hz-45 kHz!) by its width and linearity. We did not detect bumps or hollows in the mid-range, treble or bass.

The middle of the spectrum is present and very legible. It is perfectly integrated to the treble that offers a remarkable silky feeling.

The most surprising remains the dynamic and the low of the spectrum. The bass is very dense and physical. This TH-909 offers outstanding impact and articulation.

These new Fostex TH-909 Hi-Fi headphones are dedicated to the most demanding music lovers. Its open technology does not make it suitable for nomad use, but for high-flying listening in your living room. A

new reference in the field of high-end audio headphones!
