If you want the best of the best in your WE5le, I can highly recommend something like I have. Matched pair of Western Electric 300B made in 1956 and the same week in july, along with a matched pair of Tung Sol US Navy CTL 6SN7GT made in August 1942 and a matched pair of Emission Labs 5U4GM mesh...

  The A8 Realizer has the ability via its little mic's you place in each one of your ears to copy the sound-system. Then the A8 is connected to the sound system and puts out tones from each of the speakers it is coping including the sub base. The mini mics in your ears picks up on where the...

  If you want the best there is for movies or music. Realizer A8 with coping a sound studio like AIX for 5 CH and 7 CH sound system.. Most any Blu Ray player that has HDMI out and PCM. W4S DAC, balanced out to AMP. STAX SRM 727 AMP. STAX SR 009 Headphones.   This very high end setup will...

I have both. WA5-LE maxxed out with WE 300B matched set nos build date 26/1956. Paired with HD-800 and HE-6 Stax-727 paired with Stax-009   The WA5-LE with the very rare combo of tubes is something very special, the music just flows beautifully. However I have this Amp and tubes in storage...

  Yes the chart shows 274A with adapter and WE 274A with no adapter. If you look at the picture below of a WE274A, at the very least it needs a adapter.   However if memory servers, its more than just needing a adapter.  Its been a long time when I looked into the WE274A, so I can't recall...

  If memory serves, I don't think the WE422A's work in a WA5/SE.   ss

  I bought two pairs of the nos CTL TSRP 6SN7GT many years ago. They were made for the US Navy back in 1942. Very good soundstage, great Hi, low/base and mid tones. These TSRP's really help the EML 5U4G. with adding a larger soundstage and a nice crisp base.    I have the nos WE 300B and one...

I have tried must of the best tubes for my WA5-SE, the best combo by far is as follows.  Matched Pair nos WE 300B (date code 1956/26 week), Matched Pair nos TSRP 6SN7GT (August 1942), new Matched Pair EML 5U4G.    However the WE 300B original and TSRP 6SN7 from the above vintage is very hard...

Outdoors will not work, no walls. No IEM will not work for HPEQ   1. Not That I know of. I went out to LA to make mine. 2. Adding a amp will improve the SQ. Because I use HDMI out from my Oppo to the Realiser and then out via Toslink out to my W4S Dac, I keep the signal digital. From my...

Quote:   I don't just limit myself to music I also use my Headphone rig for movies. That's why I have a Smyth Realiser with PRIR's from AIX sound studio for any MC audio, like 5.1/7.1 movies.    I got these WE 300B's NOS and they are a match set build date on both (1956...

Quote:   I don't get much glow at all from these 300B's, but the sound is out of this world in my WA5LE.       ss

Quote:   That's were I got my SR-009 and SRM-727 at, same sale last year. I like the fact they also give free shipping and are a STAX Authorized Web Dealer.   There web store front said they are out of the SRM-727 in black, about two hours after I placed my order they called me and...

A little different perspective.    As for pairing the SR-009's with a (lowly cost wise) SRM-727. I know that the SRM-727 takes all the fun out of tube rolling and building a amp that will dim the lights in your house. That aside this combo is truly a end of the line combo, at least for me. ...

Quote: The Oppo 105 has two HDMI outputs, and I think the 103 also has two HDMI outputs also. So imo you are better off using the main HDMI output for video only (connect to display) and the sub HDMI for audio (turn off secondary ch) LPCM (connect to Realiser) HDMI input..  I bypass the...

Quote: I am glad you hear what I hear with the 009's. But for me what was the best surprise was getting the SRM-727 amp for under 2K new and how really well this amp drives the 009's. Now you know why I say this combo is the end of the line for me.    ss

Quote:   I have my LF and my SRD-727 side by side on my amp stand. I have no intention of selling my LF #23 and the rare quad set of nos tubes I have in that amp..  I got my 009-727 combo about the 1st of the year when ED had a fairly nice sale going on. Anyway for me this stax combo is...

Quote: Yes I have heard both the LL and SRD 727, I went with the SRD 727.  But that's not to say the LL is not a nice sounding amp with the 009's.  Yes Alex is a very nice man and I also really like my LF.   Anyway I hope you know that Alex is redesigning both the LL and LF, I would...

Quote:   Yes I know you loved your LCD-3's. When I tried to tell you back in May about this amazing Stax combo SR-009/SRM-727 I don't think you wanted to even hear about it. Now you know why I bailed out on the LCD-3's and rolled the dice on are Stax system back in December.  As...

imo there is no getting around the fact that using the XLR outputs for 2ch stereo with HQ Flac or comparable, direct from the XLR outputs of the BDP-95 to a balanced Stax amp or other HQ amp for the SR-009 stax headphones. imo this is the best way to go.    I am thinking about getting a...

Quote:   Make sure everything is plug-in, turn up the volume on your amp. I don't think so. Yes if you are using something other than 7.1ch source material.

Quote:   Quote:   Because of the HE-6 and all the different amp opinions, mine included. That's what lead me to going the Stax route. 

Quote:   Yes I agree, the second pre production model had a much more refined sound-stage than the first.  

Quote: Yep you nailed it, about why you may have to do several HPEQ's.   My SR-009's don't sound the least bit thin using my realiser and PRIR's from AIX. But I do use a SRM-727 SS amp, so I can't comment on a SRM-007. 

Quote: Yes its important for folks to understand that you can make a good HPEQ or a no so good HPEQ, it just takes a few try's to hear what is good and not so good.      Quote: Good point, you don't need the SR-009's to enjoy a Realiser rig, even the base Stax system that you...
