The T60RP has evolved into the long-awaited "mk2" model, featuring a 4th generation planar diaphragm RP driver in a solid black walnut housing, optimized for listening applications.
This is the latest model of the RP technology headphones, which have been used in professional music studios around the world for over 50 years since its birth. The T60RP has evolved from the well-received T60RP for listening to the mk2 with the 4th generation RP driver, a full-field-driven planar diaphragm driver originally developed and manufactured in-house by Fostex, mounted in a solid black walnut housing. The T60RP is the next generation of flat diaphragm headphones for listening, with a completely new housing design and precise acoustic adjustment with the new driver.
RP and RP Technology are Fostex's proprietary technologies that move the entire surface of the planar diaphragm in regular phase (Regular Phase).
Semi-open-type housing carved from solid black walnut wood
The solid black walnut wood housing, with its beautiful grain and natural texture, allows you to enjoy a natural sound that is comfortable to listen to, from the rich and firm depth of the bass range to the muddy and extended high frequency range.
RP driver evolved to the 4th generation
The RP technology, which has been improved by our own technology for 50 years, has been used in the 4th generation of RP drivers. Furthermore, the components of the magnetic circuit have been redesigned to optimize the magnetic flux distribution, thereby suppressing unwanted resonance of the diaphragm and achieving a sharp response in the rise and fall of the sound. The fourth-generation driver, developed by fully introducing various technologies cultivated over the years, simultaneously achieves improved sensitivity, smooth frequency response for easy monitoring, and excellent transient characteristics. The new driver enables accurate and subtle reproduction of low and high frequencies, resulting in a more accurate sense of localization and reproduction of the sound field. In addition, as in the past, the new product offers reliable quality through integrated manufacturing at the company’s own factory.
Independent left-right Y-cable connection for easy re-cabling.
Connectors are provided on both the left and right housings, and a newly developed Y-cable connection is used. 2-pole 3.5 mm connectors improve re-cabling compatibility and increase versatility. The cable uses a high-quality sound OFC conductor.
Optional balanced cable φ4.4: ET-RP4.4BL2Y is available.
Comfortable earpads
The earpads are low-resilience, around-the-ear earpads for a comfortable fit and can be used comfortably for extended periods of listening. The earpads can be fitted with optional Toray Ultrasuede® earpads (EX-EP-RP-SUEDE), which are sold separately. These earpads are soft to the touch and provide high quality sound from low to high frequencies.
