You’ve heard of Argons, right? If not, you definitely need to check them out. Modhouse is a company started by a cool cat named Ryan who has been modding Fostex t50rps for years. He’s done several iterations of Argons with the different generations of t50s and now he’s doing the Argon mod on the newer Fostex t60rp headphones. I’m not sure exactly what magic Ryan is putting into these things, but they sound phenomenal, and are far far superior to the stock t60rp. This video is a little all over the place because I actually filmed it a few weeks ago, but then Ryan offered to send me his newly designed (and created by Dekoni) MHA Xenon pads. They had enough of a positive impact that I felt the need to add in some additional thoughts, hence the jump-ins. TLDW: they’re great; I totally recommend them.
