Week ago, got my very first set of Stax earspeakers.
Yes, kind of vintage,(still paying off Med School), but MAN.
These are the most gloriously awesomest "cans" I've EVER heard.
And I have some other very nice 'phones.
Here's how good they are;
I can't read while I am listening to them.
All my other cans, I can generally read while I am listening to music through my headphones,(if I'm not laying back to do some focussed listening....)
But with these, I hear so much, the details are SO VERY CLEAR, hear things I've not heard in my recorded music SO WELL, that I can't do anything but LISTEN.
They're a pair of SRX Mark-3's with an SRD-7.
In pristine condition, minimal wear to the pads, all the hardware is shiny and clean.
I wouldn't care if they had scuffs on them, they just sound WONDERFUL.
Listening to Mickey Hart's stuff on a set of headphones will tell you pretty much what they can do.
These earspeakers make everything that Hart is doing completely audible, without anything being overdone or harshly pointed.
Frickin' awesome.
I know, I know, there's a STAX THREAD.
But celebrating something this cool, knowing that many of you other guys have had similar epiphanies yourselves...well, I just had to jump up and down out in the open for a minute instead of being merely reply number 15943 on a 1063 page thread.
Which is way cool too, don't get me wrong, but....well....ya know.
