The Cascade is better as a pure 'bass-cannon' and has more mid-bass quantity, but the TH-900 is a far better headphone overall and in a much higher tier than the Cascade. The TH-900 can hang with top-tier headphones like 1266, LCD-4 etc. The Cascade certainly does not. Definitely agree. Cascades are a blunt instrument, by comparison. The difference in bass quantity between the two is pretty significant. I also find the TH-900's very comfortable. That's an important 'real world' factor...

How do you find the build quality? I saw a review where they said you have to be really careful of the hinges. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I owned the original one for about 2 years and the hinges are definitely the weak spot. Had to send mine back to fix that. Not sure if they improved that with later version.

I saw a review where they said you have to be really careful of the hinges. Haven't had any issues. But then, they've had a pretty easy life. The Cascades did feel much more solid. (Like: if I accidentally sat on them, they'd survive. Not sure the Fostex's are quite as robust.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jman456 Posted October 26, 2021 Author Share Posted October 26, 2021 Just checked with A2A and the th900s only have a 1 year warranty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
