Fostex TH-500RP High-End Headphones

The Fostex TH-500RP Stereo Headphones employs the uniquely developed RP (Regular Phase) diaphragm which consists of etched copper foil on the surface with high heat resistant polyimide film as the base material. The distinctive characteristic of planar diaphragm is further evolved by newly tuning the entire driver unit.

The high specific gravity resin baffle plate delivers a high resolution sound with rich mid range and good quality lows and a reduction in unwanted resonance.

The use of aluminium and magnesium for structural parts, the TH500RP achieves a high quality texture and light weight. A unique punched metal is used for the housing, which pays homage the original RP headphone design.

The high quality soft leather ear pad ensures the optimum distance between the diaphragm and the ear for a comfortable listening experience even in prolonged use.

The connecting cable is made of "HiFC"(*) which for the ultimate sonic purity and superior conductivity.

The gold plated plug features the "Fostex" logo while the package includes a quality leather texture pouch for protection during transportation.
