I'm wondering  whether the balance control  on my stereo amplifier will be functional with a pair of Stax vintage phones and the energizer that goes along with them... thanks.

Hello, I have used my Stax SR-5 with SRD6/SB connected to a Technics SU-600 Stereo amplifier after a longer period of not using them. Unfortunately, the sound is distorting, like heavy noise on vocals and bass (sounds like really bad/loud mastering X 10). I do not think that it's happening in...

Hello! I have Superex PEP-71 headphones (5 pin domino male) and Stax SRD-5 adaptor (6 pin female). And I try to find some info about schematics for connect PEP-71 to SRD-5. Can someone help me?   Thanks!

All together: Earspeaker detail: Cable detail: Transformer detail: How does it sound? Like the offpsring of the super-detailed and analytical K240DF I owned for a couple days and the musical, foot-tapping, engaging Grado SR225i or HF-1. The clarity and openness is...

How are these? Worth snagging up? What're they worth?
