Stax SR-X1 (new entry model)
I wonder how this will stack up against L700s (both old and mk2). Interested to know if it's worth upgrading from L700 to SR-X1 or not.- chococya96

The Stax SR-L500 and SR-L700 Impressions Thread
Is it crazy to ask for velour pads on L700s? Leather is nice and all but in terms of comfort, I still prefer velour/suede over leather/pleather (plus less sweat inducing).- chococya96

Fostex TH900 MkII
I know that they are technically two 'different' types of headphones but, do people prefer 900s over 909s? Or vice versa? I heard that a lot of people hated 909 for losing 900's V-shape signature sound with lukewarm bass and bloated mid.- chococya96

The Stax SR-L500 and SR-L700 Impressions Thread
My bad I was referring to headphone/earspeaker outputs, not inputs. Having said that, do you guys rotate the grills so that the thicker plastic part is on the other side and not touching your ear tips? Or do you guys use an adapter with oval pads?- chococya96

Quick question: in relation to 2 pro bias inputs on 353x, which one is the best one to connect to? Or it doesn't matter if you use to top or bottom one?- chococya96

STAX SRM-D50
Thanks for the info. I remember my previously owned SRM-252S (paired with L300) had buzzing issues. I remember trying various troubleshooting from plugging the power brick to different wall outlets to trying different cables though, none of them fixed the buzzing noise so I had to return it for...- chococya96

STAX SRM-D50
Ah I see, it's just that D50s are priced same if not, similar to L700 MK2s so I wasn't sure if it's worth getting it over 353x or even 252s if you're not too fussy over input options. Having said that, can you elaborate on the 'warranty issues' that D50 has?- chococya96

STAX SRM-D50
I'm curious to know if pairing D50 with L700 is worth it over D10 or other cheaper energizers. I feel like D50 is more geared towards Omega series...- chococya96

Stax L700 MK2 or Sennheiser HD800s?
Hi guys, I'm having a hard time choosing between HD800s and L700 MK2. I have auditioned both headphone/earspeaker, and both were excellent to my ears. I love the large soundstage from HD800s while, detailed and fast sounds from L700 MK2 are hard to ignore as well. Comfort wise, there are no...- chococya96

The Stax SR-L500 and SR-L700 Impressions Thread
Are the L700 MK.2s free from dust problems? Can I treat these like I treat dynamic headphones (e.g. hanging the headphones on a stand with dust covers)?- chococya96

The AKG K712 Pro Support and Impressions Thread
This might be a wrong thread to ask but, what is considered an "upgrade" from K712 Pro? Been looking for a replacement for a while and I've yet to find a true upgrade from K712.- chococya96
