Introduced in 2017–2018, it was the first headphone in the T-RP line to use a wood enclosure and served for years as the series reference — both in studio monitoring and audiophile listening contexts. Its successor, the T60RPmk2, replaced the third-generation RP driver with the fourth generation and changed the housing material to black walnut, while retaining the semi-open geometry and the overall sound philosophy.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThird-generation RP driver and mahogany — the acoustic combination\u003c\/h3\u003e\nThe T60RP's driver is built on a polyimide film diaphragm with copper foil etching, driven by neodymium magnets in a Regular Phase arrangement — full-surface drive ensures uniform phase across the entire membrane, resulting in low phase distortion and the fast transient response characteristic of planar technology. At 50 Ω and 92 dB\/mW sensitivity, the T60RP has a practical requirement for a dedicated headphone amplifier — connecting directly to a laptop or smartphone headphone output will not yield adequate volume or dynamic performance. African mahogany as an enclosure material provides natural resonance damping while contributing a warm coloration in the lower midrange and upper bass, distinguishing the T60RP from the more analytically neutral plastic-housed models in the same RP lineup.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eConnector system and cabling\u003c\/h3\u003e\nThe first-generation T60RP uses a dedicated 4-pole 3.5 mm socket in the left earcup — a topologically different system from the dual independent 3.5 mm TS Y-cable sockets adopted on the T60RPmk2 and T60RPmk2CL. Cables designed for the mk2 generation, including ET-RP4.4BL2Y, do not fit the original T60RP directly. The T60RP's dedicated optional cables were the ET-RP4.4BL (4.4 mm balanced, 1.5 m) and ET-RP3.5UB (3.5 mm unbalanced). Stock low-rebound ear pads suit long sessions; the OEM replacement set EX-EP-RP60 restores the factory acoustic seal when the originals wear out.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKEY FEATURES\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3rd-generation RP driver — polyimide film diaphragm with copper foil etching, neodymium magnets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSemi-open solid African mahogany housing — warm character, natural resonance damping\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e50 Ω impedance — requires a dedicated headphone amplifier for full performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3,000 mW maximum input tolerance — wide dynamic headroom with high-output amplifiers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4-pole 3.5 mm left-cup socket — supports optional balanced cables ET-RP4.4BL (2.5 mm \/ 4.4 mm \/ XLR)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow-rebound ear pads as standard — replaceable with OEM EX-EP-RP60\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDual-layer genuine leather headband — stable fit, reduced crown pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModel: T60RP\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDriver type: Planar magnetic RP (Regular Phase), 3rd generation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiaphragm: Polyimide film with copper foil etching\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesign: Semi-open\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImpedance: 50 Ω\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSensitivity: 92 dB\/mW\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrequency response: 15 Hz – 35,000 Hz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum input power: 3,000 mW\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHousing material: Solid African mahogany\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: approx. 380 g (without cable)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncluded accessories: ET-RP3.5UB cable with 3.5 mm connector, 3.5 mm to 6.3 mm adapter, carrying pouch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"FOSTEX","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53693027549521,"sku":"59504","price":397.06,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8741\/0769\/files\/FostexT60RP1.jpg?v=1777976975","url":"https:\/\/wrdtunes.com\/de-fr\/products\/fostex-t60rp","provider":"Wired Tunes","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
