applications where you need to

concentrate totally on your the

program material.

The Design of the leatherette padded

ear cushions enhance the excellent

sound isolation and superb deep

bass reproduction

UNIQUE FOSTEX RP TECHNOLOGY

Key to the transparent sound

reproduction is Fostex’s Regulated

Phase Technology, a proprietory

transducer and diaphragm design

that has earned Fostex more than

twenty international patents and has

been successfully applied to

microphones, headphones and

loudspeakers used and relied upon in

professional and commercial sound

installations worldwide.

This technology has been enhanced

still further in a new RP Diaphragm

(now standard across the range),

which uses copper foil etched

polyimide film to provide excellent

resistance to high level input peaks of

up to 3000mW, ensuring an accurate

sound regardless of the volume.

COMFORT AND DURABILITY

Manufactured to the most exacting

standards with durable, tough and

rugged materials and components,

RP Series headphones are not only

built to last.

They’re also built for comfort.

Those padded ear cushions and

wide, self adjusting headbands

ensure maximum comfort and fit

during extended wearing periods.

Fostex’s eye for design and real-

world usability can also be seen in

the lockable, single entry jack which

minimizes cord tangles and offers

excellent serviceability.

THE LAST WORD

Whether you’re monitoring analog or

digital audio sources, work in a

professional or project studio,

mixing live, or need a great pair of

’cans for DJ work, you require

headphones which offer solid bass,

clear mids and sparkling highs. And

faithfully reproduce all aspects of the

program material, free from any

sonic coloration and distortion.

A pair of Fostex RP Series

headphones will deliver all this.

And then some.

LOCKABLE JACK

All RP Series headphones feature

single entry side jack with the plug

point featuring a locking mechanism

for secure operation.

A single cord minimizes cord tangles

and offers exceptional ease of service.

The supplied quality 3 metre cable

(copper construction) assures

optimum audio quality.

All RP Series headphones

utilize a newly designed

development called an

‘RP Diaphragm’. This

unique Fostex technology

employs a copper foil

etched polyimide film to

provide resistance to high

level input peaks of up to

3000mW combined with a

neodynium magnet for

high sensitivity and

excellent transient

handling.

This combination lifts

quality of the audio

reproduction above that of

lesser headphones based

on ‘old technologies’.

In short, the Fostex RP

Series offer perhaps the

most natural and

uncolored sound yet

heard from studio

headphones.

RP Diaphram Technology

RP DIAPHRAGM - ZIGZAG PATTERN

By making the pattern of the coil a zigzag pattern, the stiffness of
vertical and horizontal directions is well balanced reducing unwanted
peaks in high frequencies and resulting in a very natural sound.
By using copper foil rather than conventional aluminium foil and by
using a base film constructed of polyimide instead of conventional
polyester, the RP Series superbly handles high sound pressure levels
with minimum distortion.

MAGNETIC CIRCUIT

The design of the magnet and its neodymium construction means
that the RP Series realizes three-times more flux density than usual.
In addition flux vectors are efficiently distributed inside the circuit
with minimal leakage. It’s these technological advancements and
attention to detail which sets the RP Series apart.

STRAIGHT LINE PATTERN

The Doppler Vibration Laser Analysis diagram clearly shows that a
straight line coil pattern exhibits unwanted peaks and troughs.

By utilizing a Zigzag coil pattern less
peaks are present in the mid to high
frequencies.
