I will try to make it up for at least part of the day. I have some older Stax stuff I will bring with me: Lambda NB, SR-5, SR-30, and a SRM-313 power them all. I might bring one of my Stax transformers as well if I feel like bringing one of my speaker amps.

  The only Stax I have now are my Lambdas and I could never bring myself to sell them. They were way too much of pain for a broke guy like me to get a hold of. 

I am fairly certain I am free that weekend. I'll bring my Lambdas with me as long as I am.

I am coming from Raleigh/Cary if anyone wants to carpool. I could probably carry another 2 people plus gear.

Quote:   I am bringing my Lambdas and my Gammas, but the only thing I have to drive them is my SRD-6/sb energizer box powered by my NAD 3155. I have yet to be able to afford a dedicated electrostatic amp. And it is sinful to have had your Gammas that long and to have never hooked them up...

I will probably be free that weekend, and I can bring my Stax SR-Lambda and SR-Gamma is anyone is interested. 

I have a Stax SR-Gamma. It is basically a cheaper and newer version of the SR-X series since they both share the same basic driver design. I can't speak for the SR-X since I have never personally heard them, but my Gammas have been my favorite headphones for years now. They are a little bass...

For $50 it is not a terrible deal. I bought a pair of the sr-40's, they are much older Stax electrets. I was never really that impressed with them. I am sure that the SR-80's sound better than my old SR-40's ,but probably not enough to make them listenable on a regular basis. And even if you...

Welcome to Head-fi!   First off, specs on headphones are just about meaningless.   I am not really sure I would call the hd280's limited, they do have pretty good extension on either side, but the bass is pretty rolled off down low, and they really don't have any impact to speak of...

Alessandro MS-1   It was my daily use/portable cans for almost a year and a half. Not only did they sound awesome, but they were very comfortable since they weigh almost nothing, but then I bought the MS-2's thinking they would be better, but I was very dissapointed. They really didn't sound...

Coming from the DT770 you will probably think they are bass shy, which they kinda are, but not so much that you really miss the bass. They do not have near the soundstage of the larger or more expensive Staxen, not to say they are lacking in soundstage by any means, but they are very intimate. ...

I think whenever I find a really good deal on a DAP, I buy one. I bought the Zune 30 when they went below $100. I bout a Meizu SL when the first started becoming easy to get. And for some reason I just keep aquiring new iPods. I currently have 3 iPods. A 1G, 4G, and a 2G mini. I got them all...

If you are interested in getting into Stax, then I say you should go for it. I have the 2050 system and I have been nothing but happy with it. It blew every other dynamic headphone that I ever had out of the water and they are super comfortable as well. I have had a chance to A-B my 2050 to a...

I have both the SR-Gamma, and SR-202. I honestly enjoy the Gammas more. They both are insanley detailed, and they both beat the crap out of almost every dynmaic headphone that I have ever listened to. But I find that the Gammas are just more fun to listen to. What is even funnier is that I...

I have had several HDD players (iRiver H120, Zune 30, iPod 20GB), and I find most often I use my smaller players. I primarily use my 8GB iPod mini. I found that having all of my music with me all the time just got way to distracting. Often it would take me longer to pick out something to listen...
