Fostex TH-616 Open-Back Headphone

In Detail

• Open-back housing to evoke the imagery of sunlight filtering through the trees
  Elegantly crafted with a touch of Japanese aesthetics 
  Carved from black walnut, a globally renowned wood 
  Combines excellent structural rigidity with exceptional acoustic qualities
  The design draws inspiration from the captivating natural phenomenon where sunlight produces a radiant glow as it filters through the spaces amidst trees. 

• This precision-machined design not only upholds structural rigidity but also effectively eliminates the generation of modal vibrations. 

• Each opening is meticulously sized to prevent resonance at particular frequencies.
  Leveraging years of accumulated expertise, bio-cellulose fibers are skillfully blended with other materials under optimal conditions. 
  This results in achieving a low specific gravity, high Young's modulus, and high internal loss.
  These properties enable the faithful reproduction of delicate, high-resolution, and beautiful mid-high frequencies.
  The inclusion of a free edge enables the accurate reproduction of low mid-range frequencies with substantial amplitude.

• Exceptionally robust magnetic circuit~
  The magnetic circuit boasts a 50mm driver unit with an impressive magnetic flux density of 1 Tesla. 
  This ultra-strong magnetic circuit ensures minimal distortion and a wide dynamic range.

• High quality and lightweight mechanical parts 
  Aluminum is widely employed for mechanical components to attain a superior quality feel while keeping the product lightweight.
  Incorporating high-specific-gravity resin for the baffle plate effectively minimizes resonance noise, resulting in exceptional resolution, a lush mid-range, and high-quality bass reproduction.

• Detachable connectors
  The detachable headphone connection terminals are rhodium-plated to enhance hardness, abrasion resistance, and corrosion resistance, ultimately boosting their reliability. 

• High grade copper headphone cable 
  HiFC cables, constructed from pure copper and enhanced through specialized processing, are employed to ensure impeccable conductivity, enabling a precise rendition of the full spectrum of bandwidth.
