New Massdrop Fostex T-X0 Planar Magnetic Headphones

Massdrop Fostex T-X0 retains the build of the T50RP MII, such as the Fostex’s proprietary regular phase planar-magnetic diaphragm driver with a neodymium magnet and copper foil-etched polyimide film. When it came to alterations, Massdrop and Fostex worked together, pooling suggestions from community feedback to give rise to their new collab.

The Massdrop Fostex T-X0 delivers flattened mids and elevated low bass and upper mids thanks to filters in front of and behind the drivers along with a gasket between the driver and plate. There is also extra damping thanks to custom laser-cut foam in the recesses of the ear cups, according to Massdrop.

Customers can also expect a better fit owed to deeper ear pads that are made of velour and perforated protein leather. The frame is black except for the chocolate brown leather strip in the floating headband embossed with Fostex T-X0 on one side and Massdrop on the other.

These headphones will be available starting Monday, June 12 at 6 a.m. PST. for $149.99. Orders include one 6.6 foot detachable cable.

As Massdrop makes very clear, this is the final run of headphones with MKII tooling. Only 1,900 pairs will be available and all will be serialized. So, head over to Massdrop and request entry into the drop for your chance to buy.
