Fostex t50rp mk3 planar headphones

Nice sounding cans, after about 80 quid, fiver postage. They are around 150 ish new as there are plenty of deals about for them

Cheers ant

Re: What i have ended up with

Thanks for the offer ray, but to be honest, even with my above musings on 45s im very unlikely to actually build anything even if i do buy some sort of kit or try to design something.
Im just out of the game when it comes to making stuff

That may come back at some point (hopefully) we shall see

I had set this to fixed to run it into the myryad, so just reset it rather than faffing about with the preamp i have so...

Re: What i have ended up with

I wouldnt mind a go at the noir, yours was very good, and actually one of the things that set me off with this in the first place.
