@@GREQReviews Yaxi Alcantara earpads for th900 (choose either leather or Alcantara, different sound) works for 909 as well Also, you can use the Dekoni elite hybrid or leather. (Don’t have them) also works on the open back version. Right now I’m using some unknown leather earpads the importer bought and modified. Sounds good to me. Even he said he hates the stock earpads and the long cable. Same goes for almost all of fostex headphones
They seem to be quite similar to my TH900, and the comment of them being quite a small sound stage makes me question if Fostex made them open back just for the sake of being open back
Something tells me you might not be too far off, because I could detect no obvious reason why anyone would take the open-back over the closed-back versions aside from price, or requiring less isolation.
@@GREQReviews The th900 with aftermarket pads sounds good but have a huge dip in the middle frequencies, especially female vocals which are recessed The th808 and th909 fixes those problems, while having a bit less rumble down at 20hz However changing the earpads is a must . My pair is heavily modded but sounds amazing
Danke danke. Sehr interessant danke schon
Bitte sehr
Nice review mate.
Cheers!
Great review. Apparently this model will be as controversial as its older brother, the 909
I bought it from the importer and he modded the pads nobody uses fostex with stock pads. try it. it is incredible after pad swap
Do you have any specific pads you would recommend?
