TH1100RP

HK$19,880

As a long-standing unit technology of Fostex, the RP (Regular Phase) has been highly praised in the consumer and professional music market for its high linear sound performance over the years. This year, the brand has innovated the RP unit, not only increasing the number of magnets on both sides of the unit to enhance the overall magnetic flux, but also further increasing the size of the diaphragm and coil. At the same time, the new design is applied to the flagship TH series headphones, and the shell is selected with maple as the material, and a blue dye coating is used on the shell, bringing two flagship RP unit earmuffs TH1000RP (closed type) and TH1100RP (open type) to the market.

Flagship-level RP unit

Fostex’s RP unit adopts a rectangular design, with a lightweight and highly durable polyimide film inside. A serrated coil is added to the film, which can provide more natural information transmission performance. Fostex further expands the overall area of the RP unit of TH1000RP, and uses a total of 11 sets of magnet arrays to balance the magnetic flux distribution of the headphones, bringing higher sensitivity while suppressing distortion.

Hard maple solid wood housing finished with "Aizome,” a traditional Japanese dyeing method

In designing the TH1000RP, Fostex specifically used maple wood, commonly found in guitars, for the housing to leverage its high hardness and density. This enhances the brightness of the high frequencies and makes the details more distinct. Additionally, they employed the traditional Japanese indigo dyeing technique, Aizome, to color the housing. The use of Aizome not only enriches the appearance but also preserves the acoustic properties of the maple wood, ensuring a firm bass and clear, extended treble.

Open Back Design

The open-type TH1100RP reproduces a natural sound field with a high resolution and a low lis-tening fatigue, which is appropriate for the premium open-type RP, using double aluminum etched parts in the housing aperture and careful fine-tuning of the aperture ratio and each inter-nal part.
