    Things an electrostat noob should know?

    I think not having any water around electronics in general is a basic principle to follow.    As for the 717, I've never noticed a difference from letting the headphones charge for more than a few minutes. It would probably be a good idea to charge up the headphones for a few hours though if...

    How to feed speakers and headamp with one DAC - ???

    Ask Jack to add a pair of pre-amp outputs on the back of the amplifier. You could run the speakers off of the WA6.

    Stax SR-404 -> Free to a good home (Giveaway)

    I am amazed that you still haven't found an amplifier yet. My advice to you is to stop fiddling around with the "negotiating" and just buy one for the asking price.
