Hello! I am looking for a Fostex TR-X00 Ebony. The right-side driver on my unit has malfunctioned, and the sound is very low, I am looking for a used model to replace it. If anyone is interested, please get in touch.
Welcome to HFGF 
I’m sorry to hear this, have you reached out to Fostex? that might be the best scenario?
Thanks! I don’t think so because Fostex only supplies the drivers; the headphones were manufactured by Massdrop, and that company no longer exists. Now you can only find them used.

Hi. You could pick up some drivers off AliExpress.
I picked replacement drivers recently for my EMU TEAKs. Yeah, my ones had the issue where the surrounds have become near inflexible so just getting mids and shouty highs only.
Interestingly, the ones on AE seem better built, too, and are anywhere between $40 to $70 a pair… you could even get different impedance variants (24, 64, 200, 300 ohm) ones.
So far, I have not discerned the sound difference from stock ones. If anything, these actually seem better.
Could be a routine thing at this point (replace drivers every decade, since mine is a decade old now), so this is one feasible solution.
These are the 52/53 mm ones which must be the exact fit:
These are the 50mm ones (which I found more solid) though they are 50mm so you’d have to adjust a little.
