Stax SRM-T1 Repair, Re-Cap, Mod
I think I would need a skilled person to do it for me. I'm ok with soldering simple circuits like crossovers, but I probably wouldn't attempt this. I'm in the UK.- vintageaxeman

Stax SRM-T1 Repair, Re-Cap, Mod
Thank you for that wonderfully detailed reply. Mine is the 007Tii. It’s a secondhand unit so it’s not under warranty. What are my options for getting this mod done?- vintageaxeman

The Stax Thread III
I'm thinking of upgrading my Stax amp. Please can anyone confirm....? Are Stax Lambda headphones with the 5 Pin Pro bias all fully interchangeable with any of the various Stax amps with the same socket? (The specs of some of the amps suggest that they might have different bias voltages, and I...- vintageaxeman

SPL PHONITOR 2 NEW HEADPHONE AMP
Even ATC used to use the opposite way to the current way that they wired their XLR sockets. So I'm not surprised that other equipment does the same. It's easy to get right. Just find an electronics engineer who can re-solder the two switched pins on the XLR plugs. Also, someone else commented...- vintageaxeman

SPL PHONITOR 2..... LEHMANN CUBE SE.... PS AUDIO DLIII DAC....

I have a Lovely Cube which had originally been...- vintageaxeman

SPL PHONITOR 2 NEW HEADPHONE AMP
I also have a phonitor 2, and have the same issue. I did look at a passive splitter and realised it was not the thing to do. I use big ATC Active speakers. I also have a Focal sub ready to go, but of course the Phonitor 2 only has one output. I have bought a second hand active unit which will...- vintageaxeman

SPL PHONITOR 2 NEW HEADPHONE AMP
I agree, peterb123. I've found that there's no benefit from using the crossfeed etc when speakers are being used. If anything, it changes the sound negatively. The positive difference comes when it's used with headphones. I think the only reason it is able to be switched on for the line...- vintageaxeman

SPL PHONITOR 2 NEW HEADPHONE AMP
I have an SPL Phonitor 2 feeding ATC Active speakers. I talked to SPL about the Phonitor 2 expansion rack, which is a rack mount frame and a passive switch, with 4 sets of properly balanced XLR inputs on the back and one pair of output XLRs. The expansion pack is really to give...- vintageaxeman

I have used both the SPL Control2 and now the Phonitor2 as preamps for my big ATC active speakers....you probably know them as HUGELY reputable speakers, used by Pink Floyd, Gilmour, Waters (et al), Bob Ludwig, Mark Knopfler, The Stones, Diana Krall, Sting, T-Bone Burnett, Ronnie Scotts...- vintageaxeman

Lehmann Audio Linear SE
Yes, I did compare the SE version clone against the regular one I had until recently. I love upright bass sound, and things like 12 string guitar (and guitarists such as Isaac Guillory) and I would totally agree. Sounds like these with some percussive hf detail sound so realistic. I have some...- vintageaxeman

The "Lovely Cube" Headphone Amp (Lehmann Black Cube Linear Clone)
it just looks a bit roughly ground on the edges.... Of course, if you are planning an SE version with an outer case 'like wot I done', then the inner case does not matter too much as long as it shields the amp....so you could get away with a specially designed front panel.....you have any DIY...- vintageaxeman

The "Lovely Cube" Headphone Amp (Lehmann Black Cube Linear Clone)
I was lucky. The clone I bought, which I am still modding, was built in Hong Kong by a guy who had made several....and he had been naughty enough to even copy the official logo onto the front panel. Even the circuit board had 'apparently' proper markings... But although it was very good, the...- vintageaxeman
