STAX headphone amp problem.
Yes I bought it from yahoo auctions japan. Can I use the amplifier without the transformer for right now, or will it cause damage? It sounds fine as it is. I just hope it's not shortening the life.- tankteh

STAX headphone amp problem.
They don't sell that one. Your answer wasn't very clear. Do I need a step up transformer? Will it harm the am if I don't use one? Also which side would I plug the amp into?- tankteh

STAX headphone amp problem.
Hi. I recently purchased a STAX SR 3030 system and I have noticed something strange. I have purchased this same amplifier in the past as well as a 323a and 323s. When I turn the left channel knob, I usually feel grinding and I'm pretty certain that it is uneven. Is this common with STAX...- tankteh

Ridiculously amazing Headphone. Sound Warrior SW-HP 10.
They are much lighter and smaller than you would imagine. They surround the whole ear, but they sit on it rather than cupping. Hence the sweating. After a few minutes you feel as though there is nothing on your head. The build quality is not that of the lambdas, but what it lacks in high grade...- tankteh

Considering the price and sound quality, I'd say but them, then visit the doctor and convince him to buy a pair as well. These just might be the cure for cancer.- tankteh

Ridiculously amazing Headphone. Sound Warrior SW-HP 10.
I purchased this 100$ headphone two weeks ago from rakuten. It has had about 200 hours of burn in time. I couldn't believe the sound. It is ferocious. Punchy detailed bass, never boomy, soundstage larger than my ath ad1000x, more detail and speed than than my sa5000's. The midrange is very in...- tankteh

Sony MDR CD3000 (horrible)
Its strange. The detail and treble of these is outstanding. Then I try a sr 407 and it demolishes it. Granted the cd3000 has more impact. But the 407 has a larger sound stage, more detail, transparency and better build quality. Maybe dynamics just aren't my thing. I just placed an order for a...- tankteh

Sony MDR CD3000 (horrible)
I've been using these headphones for the whole day now. I've tried them with and without and amplifier. I wouldn't ever recommend these. They have a poor build quality. I'd say 80% plastic. I got new earpads, but the headband material and old earpads get all sticky and crumble apart. I can't...- tankteh

They are gearheads, not audiophiles. When you spend more of your disposable income on high end equipment to fill in the gaps in your lonely life, you are no longer an audiophile. They forget that the music is what is most important.- tankteh
