Fostex x Massdrop TH-X00 for $400

The Fostex x Massdrop TH-X00 headphones are back again at Massdrop for $400 with free shipping, but the shipping estimate depends on when you buy them. The first 600 units purchased will ship when this drop ends, end of May 2016. The remaining 1400 units will ship in mid-September 2016. So if you want them sooner than later, make sure you buy them before the “XX purchased” is over 600. Also don’t want until the last minute, as the counter may not be real time. As of the time of writing, it is “87 purchased”. Temptations, temptations 🙂
