Fostex replace Urushi cherry birch with black walnut for TH808, but don't for a second think of this open-back headphone as a step down from the flagship TH909.
TH808 brings Fostex's famous TH900 dynamic punch as always but does so with a newfound solidity and gravitas, with its new walnut housing proving additionally capable of controlling transients and prevent the performance from getting excessively carried away.
