I purchased this unit in a pre-owned condition several years ago, and I still consider it as one of my favorite AMPs. It was the only AMP that I continued to use before I switched to a Stat set up. Although there are some marks on the exterior of the amplifier, it is in perfect working...- homeros8000

The Stax Thread III
I own both the Mjolnir Carbon and 700S. While I love the 700S sound signature, especially with the L500, I feel the Carbon drives the 009 more efficiently.- homeros8000

CanJam New York 2024 Impressions Thread (March 9-10, 2024)
I tried it, and it was absolutely marvelous. It was set up with Stax X9000 and Mytek Empire Streamer DAC. The soundstage was expansive, lush, and detailed without being bright. One of the best static amps I’ve ever auditioned.- homeros8000

I have used those cables on and off for the past two years with varied results. As Simon Price mentioned in his review https://www.13thnote.net/2019/05/30/wave-high-fidelity-cables-review/, they take the edge off a system's brightness. However, I am not using Dave/Mscaler as I used to, and my...- homeros8000

Hugo M Scaler by Chord Electronics - The Official Thread
Initially, I had the same experience with May. The reason was the Audioquest power cable I used for the May. Using a regular power cable connected directly to the power outlet solved the problem. My system is not bright, I don't experience any brightness out of Dave, but May sounds more...- homeros8000

Hugo M Scaler by Chord Electronics - The Official Thread
I would like to share my thoughts on my experience with the Dave and Mscaler. I owned both since 2020. I did not notice much difference between the single-ended and XLR connections. Additionally, the claims about the wave cables' effect were exaggerated. Although I still own those cables, I do...- homeros8000

IMO the starter Stax L300 is miles ahead of HD800. The L500 is very similar to L300 but fuller and warmer. Both are relatively easy to drive.- homeros8000

I bought the Utopia from a first owner back in 2019. It’s still in excellent condition except for the scratched box which is slightly damaged inside.

I listened to Susvara on top end systems extensively at Canjam. At home I have Dave+Mscaler with top notch CD players, streamers and I use various speaker amps to drive it (Benchmark, Bakoon, Hegel, NAD). I have no problem driving the headphone and it sounds great! However, it’s a matter...- homeros8000
