Hi all, longtime Stax lover but still a newbie here. I've posted versions of this query on some other threads with little response so far. Older Stax headphones like my SR-Xs had mineral wool acoustic damping pads behind the transducers to minimize reflections from the ear cup inner surfaces...

Any thoughts here on adding acoustic damping material (e.g., a thin layer of mineral wool, wool batting, cotton) into the outside cavities of Lambda earcups to absorb the outward sound radiation in order to minimize reflections off the earcups' inside surfaces back toward the ears (which...

Yes, I searched but the closest I could find was using sorbothane to damp ear cup resonances. If member Spritzer Spritzershould happen to see this, he may have a take on it - he seems to be "the" Stax guru.

Hi, new member here, long-time Stax owner and lover. I'd like to ask about the advisability of adding acoustic damping material inside the outer part of Lambda earcups, like Stax did with, eg, the older SR-Xs, to dampen the outward sound radiation to minimize phasey sound due to comb filtering...
