This thread is a recommendation thread for 'phones that go for $500 or less...so Staxs aren't going to make the cut unfortunately. The high pricetag Staxs carry is also why people aren't talking about them like a dime a dozen. They're not readily recommended either even if you have the budget for Staxs, if the rest of your system isn't ready for them.
