The T1 series is definitely better than the 006t. The 717 (not the 727II) and 007t are very similar and are sonically the top available Stax amps IMO. I also like the fact that the 007t has both high and low bias outputs, the 007tII does not.
The guy who sold me the T1S and the LNS had bought a 4040II, maybe that was actually a downgrade? Anyway, can't wait to hear the SR-X, it has arrived at home so it will appear on the mini-meet

Just wanted to add, you have a very nice electrostatic collection

You have probably noticed that I have been scaling down my Stax collection lately.
From 8 headphones, 3 energizers and 2 transformers this summer, down to 2 headphones and 1 transformer as of now. Like others I have found out that the SR-007(BL) is the clear leader of the pack, and its the only Stax'en I really need.

Its been a really nice ride though, and I would not have been without it.
Thanks!

I left the AKG (K1000) outside, since this is the Stax thread.
But I am certainly not neglecting the K1000. Its actually the 'phone I usually pick for listening sessions.

That may change when I find or build a higher quality transformer for the Stax'en.

sr-007t amp on the way to pair with my sr-404 signatures, once they arrive I will officially be a part of the STAX crew.

Question for those who owned the 007t do you have to bias the tubes every single time you change the tubes? Looks pretty hard.

Interesting; same combo on way to me. Anticipation.

Did I mention I bought subtle's O2 Mk1, and I also have an SRD-7 Mk2 SB on the way as well?

So, I'll finally get to compare the Mk1 to my Mk2, and see if I should sell one or vacillate about it like Elephas

Next up will either be a nice tube speaker amp for the SRD-7 Mk2 SB or build a blue hawaii...
post #9687 of 18422
As between the mk1 and the mk2, I have pretty much settled on the former.

Stax connectors

Hi guys,

Has anyone got any stax plugs & sockets they are willing to part with (for money obviously). I need 4 plugs and 4 sockets although i'll settle for any amount greater or smaller. I'm in Northern Ireland and the only place i see them is allied in the states. Germania was telling me that you can only order in large quantities and none of my local suppliers stock them any more.

thanks.
post #9689 of 18422
I'm not sure how many sockets I've got but I do have a lot of plugs that I can send your way. Just drop me a PM if you'd like them.

Can you explain (in general and not in the context of your post) the meaning of the tongue smile to me.

Also what is the single word defining a woman with a a specific hair color?

Blond = Blonde, Red =Redhead,
Brown = ?, Black = ?

I have a feeling that I mistakenly call Brown colored hair women Brunettes.

Black

the one you cannot get over with

perfectly justified, it will not take one of your super duper amps to hear the huge voice of this tiny girl.
