I use 3 x LME49720HA in my STX and it sounds great, much better separation of instruments and more clarity.   How would the STX sound if I was to install LME49710HA in the buffer while still using the 2 x LME49720HA in the IV?

Just a quick one guys, I installed 3 LME49720HA's into the STX but there's no sound? why do you think this could be? everything is installed correctly with power. When the computer is turned on you hear that clicking sound by the card and hear a hiss in the headphones, but when I go to play...

Hi all, I would like to upgrade my STX with better sounding Op-Amps? which do you guys recommend? So far i've seen these listed around the net..   3 x LME49720HA or 3x OPA2107 is the way to go?   How do each of these sound? and can anyone recommend anything different?   Basically I...

this is really interesting, there's a SRM-007t II kimik upgrade for this amp. What would a change of tubes do to the sound of you were to upgrade them?

I'm also looking to pairing the SR-009 to either Stax amps offerings. i.e. the SRM-007t II or the SRM-727 II.    rgs9200m - I like how you described the SRM-007t II   ericohgb - The same goes for you with the SRM-727 II   What interesting to know here is, whats the best out of these...

Quote:   Who did you ship yours with?

Yeah pricejapan add the insurance cover on top of all the other charges required including shipping. Just wondered how that would affect the insurance on the product if there is a false price on the box just to escape customs. Most people that have bought items from pricejapan.com live either in...

Doesn't the insurance cover you in the event that the package is stolen or damaged?

What was the price you asked them to mark down if you don't mind me asking?

Do you have to email them before they ship it out, to tell them to mark down a false cheaper price of the product to escape customs or am I misunderstanding? Did you ship via EMS? reading other threads they seem to be good at not getting caught my customs as opposed to DHL.

Hi all, has anyone here successfully bought headphones from PriceJapan.com?  I see the prices of Stax SR-009 is over a £1000 cheaper once you do the currency conversion into pounds. My question is will you be charged VAT and import duty? or is it like any normal package coming from abroad and...

How would you connect a Bryston BHA-1 amp to a computer? would you need to use a DAC via USB? I currently have a Asus Xonar Essence STX, would like to use that as a source, but if this is not possible do I have to go down the external DAC route?   Am I right in saying you connect the amp to...

Hi all, I am looking at my first foray into the high end headphone market. I currently have a HD650 headphone, but like every audiophile, I want the best sound obtainable.   So i'm looking at purchasing the Stax SR-009. Trouble is i'm not sure what amp to pair it with. After reading through...
