    The Stax Lambda Thread

    I have both and belong to the Houston Audio Society whose members have pretty good equipment and often we compare live vs. a recorded version in the same space and at only moments after the artists finish playing. Everybody has an opinion just as I do

    The Stax Lambda Thread

    Stax Lambda Pro SRM-1/MK2 recently updated by Accutech (serial A) with SR-307 is so much more detailed and deeper bass than my old HD600 with silver cables and the Valhalla tube amp. The SR-307 are a major improvement over the original Stax SR V headphones.

    7/15 Follow up - the TEAC unit developed some type of glitch allowing it to randomly flip back to the PC speakers despite the DAC lock still being illuminated. To resolve the problem you had to unplug and reinsert the usb cable. TEAC was less than responsive in helping - despite doing everything...

    Should I get the Audio Technica ATH-m50s?

    I can only suggest that if you find them uncomfortable don't buy them - I don't seem to have the same issues that you have suggest so try to find comfort first then sound quality, especially if movies and games are important.

    Afraid of Fake ATH-M50... Is this real?

    My order was shipped from Amazon Prime and they are real or the best fakes I have ever seen plus the sound good to boot. You also asked about the Sennheisers which I haven't heard but are supposedly a good value.

    Headphone comparison: Sennheiser HD 600, HD 700, HD 800, HD 25-1, and the Amperior; Audio-Technica ATH-M50s; Audez'e LCD-2 rev.2 and the LCD-3

    WOW that was great I found it interesting to see how each headphone scored differently based on the music selected.  I wondered how many times our conclusions are based on too few music selections when comparing the merits of competing headphones? Also the cosmetics of a product along with the...

    Review by 'DougT' on item 'Audio-Technica ATH-M50S'

    I was somewhat  leery of headphones that have been given such a high rating in the Head-Fi rankings as #3 (#2 last month) especially when they don't cost a king's ransom, surely something doesn't seem right. What the hell, I decided to take a chance as for spending $134 at Amazon I couldn't' t...
