Smyth Research Realiser A16
I did not want to take the risk of sending my unit anywhere for upgrade so I use the Sharc unit here which works great for me. https://www.thenaudio.com/ Another option...- blubliss

Instead, it's overrun by guys talking about silver cables and burn in :smirk: I bought a new cable which happens to be silver but only because the original was too short for me. No sound change I can discern.- blubliss

Is anyone experiencing any rubbing on the back edge of the ear from it rubbing on the pad? I only feel this on the right side and it's irritating me a bit. ES Labs told me I could try to stretch the whole of the pad larger.- blubliss

The fascination and appreciation is not wearing off. I really love them. Of course it's early days for me. When I first got the SR1a I thought I could live with those alone for quite some time. I'm glad I still have other options now, still very much love the SR1a too. I like to shift...- blubliss

Here's the place: https://headphonelounge.com/ I ordered an 8 foot one too with the best silver he had, which is not the top level one. Good price. I'm not really a cable believer any more, but I needed something longer so thought I'd try it. Listening more and switching back to SR1a and...- blubliss

Got my set in today and I can say these are very, very good, hearing some magic. These may actually have aspects that are better than the original. I recall the highs could be piercing/fatiguing at times on the sets I had. Sound stage is incredible for a closed phone. Definitely need new cable...- blubliss

I've done HPEQs with the A8 and A16 on several external amps and have always heard the sweeps on the analog line out.- blubliss

I sold my Sony MDR-R10s and Sennheiser HE90 some years back becasue I was happy with other TOTL headphones and the pricing on them was outrageous. Still have an original Stax SR-Omega, not sure I would ever part with them. But at this price for this R10 copy it really is a great choice in my...- blubliss

Ordered. :relaxed: I bet many people in hearing the original these days would say the same thing, they were very unique but not great at everything.- blubliss

Very interesting conversation, thanks. Having owned 3 pairs of the original in the past and worked on them, these interest me a lot. I would agree that the descriptions given so far seem to correlate well with my memory of the sound of the original. I just sent an email to ES Labs, may buy a...- blubliss

Sure, I'll report back. It's way cheaper than a receiver with 2.1 with all the features I don't need.- blubliss

I'm going to try this between the A16 and my new LG OLED48CX which has HDMI 2.1, hoping it's a cheap way to avoid the upgrade shipping and not have to buy an external receiver that has 2.1. https://thenaudio.com/- blubliss
