    Stax SR-009 Channel Imbalance Trouble / Driver Problem?

    Yes ,Still working fine. I suspect the dust on the dust covers create some static effect that screws up the treble info. I now keep my sr009 in a bag to keep the dust out.

    Stax SR-009 Channel Imbalance Trouble / Driver Problem?

    I did not unsolder any wires. Just gave the dust covers a wash. As well as the other side. Originally my imbalance issue gradually got worst over one month whether it stem from improper storage or our high humidity in Spore, I don't know . I tried searching for a solution when I stumble...

    Stax SR-009 Channel Imbalance Trouble / Driver Problem?

    ok. thanks and noted. Yes, I did not go in further. Maybe the 'washing' the dust cover neutralise some static build up that was causing the imbalance. So then is not as dangerous as I thought as I was merely washing the dust cover. So why is the dust cover this clear membrane film over the...

    Stax SR-009 Channel Imbalance Trouble / Driver Problem?

    Here are the photos from my SR009 (right driver). Can see the hex bars with the membrane (diaphram) above it. So it was on this diaphram on my left driver that I had dropped water droplets on to 'wash' it. The photo above shows the black metal mesh with the O-ring. Lift it up and the...

    My stator plates look quite different from yours. Do see attached photo. My photo just shows the hex bars and the membrane above it. The hex bars are by themselves with no micro hole perforations besides it like in your photo. Does your stator plate look the same if it is flipped over? One...

    Stax SR-009 Channel Imbalance Trouble / Driver Problem?

    I will post up some photos to show here. As I am a new member to this forum, this forum platform does not allow me to upload photos for the time being. Once the round metal mesh and O-ring is removed, there is no more dust screen blocking the membrane on my model. When I can upload my photo...

    Stax SR-009 Channel Imbalance Trouble / Driver Problem?

    Ahhh... I studied your photo carefully. Your stator besides having the hex cross bar shape has the little metal micro holes meshing protecting the membrane. So it will make it more challenging to get the water to pass this additional micro metal hole mesh. My SR009 just has the hex cross...

    Stax SR-009 Channel Imbalance Trouble / Driver Problem?

    Yes... I did wash the membrane itself with drops of water. Yes there is this fear of damaging the thin conductive coating on the membrane. Same with my Marin Logan speakers. But from my two experiences with washing my stax and martin logans, the sound is really back once the membranes are...

    Stax SR-009 Channel Imbalance Trouble / Driver Problem?

    Dear All, I recently purchased an SR009 (s/no 3599) few months back. After enjoying listening to its incredible sound for a few months, the sound on the left driver, particularly the left treble start to fade and the volume was lower than my right side. I found out on this forum that many are...
