"Best Headphones not many know about."

Not many Headphone users know about Fostex headphones. I have to say these are the best "unknown" brand of headphones out there.The build quality is excellent and durable and the sound is very natural and revealing.The Bass response is the most impressive.An overall great value.

"Excellent set of 'phones..."

I tried out various headphones at a local music store, and of all those within my price range I felt that these accurately represented the sound that was being produced, while still fitting comfortably in various positions. The response on these is very clear and defined, but not sterile sounding (perhaps because of the equipment they are being used with). I recommend these phones to anyone who needs to get top notch monitoring headphones at an affordable price...these phones way outdo the AKG phones at this price level...and fit better as well.

About This Product!
Description
Docs
The new Fostex T20RPmkII and T40RPmkII now join the acclaimed T50RP in offering the true and accurate headphone monitoring crucial for recording studios, post houses, remote broadcast facilities, project studios and DJ'. Here is a range of headphones which have been designed from the outset to offer the widest frequency range, to minimise listening fatigue and to allow you to accurately pinpoint and analyse all aspects of your creative output. Headphones which faithfully reproduce all aspects of the program material, free from any sonic coloration and distortion. And headphones which combine supreme clarity and audio performance in a comfortable, sophisticated design.

Clear, Transparent Sound
All RP Series headphones deliver this uncolored reproduction and natural clear sound right across the full frequency range with full bass and sparkling highs. But it's the sonic quality at high sound pressure levels which really sets these headphones apart. Whereas lesser headphones struggle at high sound pressure levels, the RP Series have no such problems. The bass is always powerful and distortion-free even at high levels. - Essential when headphone monitoring in noisy environments such as ENG recording, DJ work, and in applications where you need to concentrate totally on your the program material. The Design of the leatherette padded ear cushions enhance the excellent sound isolation and superb deep bass reproduction

Unique Fostex RP Technology
Key to the transparent sound reproduction is Fostex's Regulated Phase Technology, a proprietory transducer and diaphragm design that has earned Fostex more than twenty international patents and has been successfully applied to microphones, headphones and loudspeakers used and relied upon in professional and commercial sound installations worldwide. This technology has been enhanced still further in a new RP Diaphragm (now standard across the range), which uses copper foil etched polyimide film to provide excellent resistance to high level input peaks of up to 3000mW (T50RP), ensuring an accurate sound regardless of the volume.

Comfort and Durability
Manufactured to the most exacting standards with durable, tough and rugged materials and components, RP Series headphones are not only built to last. They're also built for comfort. Those padded ear cushions and wide, self adjusting headbands ensure maximum comfort and fit during extended wearing periods. Fostex's eye for design and real-world usability can also be seen in the lockable, single entry jack which minimizes cord tangles and offers excellent serviceability.

The Last Word
Whether you're monitoring analog or digital audio sources, work in a professional or project studio, mixing live, or need a great pair of 'cans for DJ work, you require headphones which offer solid bass, clear mids and sparkling highs. And faithfully reproduce all aspects of the program material, free from any sonic coloration and distortion.

A pair of Fostex RP Series headphones will deliver all this.

And then some.
