I’ve been trying to get my hands on these headphones for a while now. I’ve heard them at shows and was impressed by the sound, but it’s a whole different animal to break-in a pair at home. There is no shortage of Fostex T50 mods out there, and the Dekoni Blue is the first I’ve had the opportunity to spend a decent amount of time with. I must say that the energetic, warm tuning along with the acclaimed comfort of the Dekoni Hybrid ear pads (Dekoni Audio is a headphone accessory manufacturer from Bergen County, NJ where I was born and raised BTW…sorry had to give Jersey some love) has been great, and I can see why so many manufacturers have used this headphone as their canvas. Stay tuned for the full review.
Here’s a rundown of the features and unboxing pics:
Dekoni Audio and Fostex have teamed up to create a custom variant of the world renowned Fostex T50RP MKIII Headphone. Utilizing the Fostex Planar Magnetic Drivers and Body the addition of the Dekoni Hybrid Ear Pads and other proprietary changes makes this headphone a better version of the original by being less fatiguing and smoother all around with an extended bass response. Already receiving rave reviews the Dekoni Blue is coming to market with a extra set of Dekoni Audio Elite Velour Earpads that utilize the Premium Slow rebound, high density memory foam Dekoni is known for.
I’m an audio writer who started as a young audio salesman/consumer electronics professional back in the late 90s. That’s where I discovered the magic of 2-Channel sound. My thirst for great sound has led me on a delightful music quest that continues today.
