    Using Yahoo! Japan auctions to buy headphones???

    I believe Head-Fi member Lobstersan runs a service similar to that. Many ppl have used it and were satisfied (I have not personally). His website is www.kuboTEN.com Rinkya still works. I used their service earlier this year before I knew about lobstersan's service.

    The Stax thread (New)

    Since BH is bit out of reach in terms of availability right now, what's the general thought about using the energizer (SRD-7 Pro/Mk2) or Stax amp (SRM-717/007t) to drive O2? I've read some threads regarding Stax amps generally gives more clarity/detail, and energizers probably has a wider...
