Do unused Stax headphones deteriorate?
Thanks for the reactions, I purchased the NIB SR-207 and a very nice SRM007TII, despite the fact that the headphones have been in storage and unused since production, they already sound very nice, airy, way more details and positioning than I was used to and a nice bass, even if the system would...- Resorob

GUSTARD H10 High-current Discrete Class A output Stage Headphone Amplifier
I get your drift mandrake50, but I like enjoying the best possible sound without breaking the bank, it is not a big accomplishment to buy everything if sufficient funds exist and knowledge is absent.

GUSTARD H10 High-current Discrete Class A output Stage Headphone Amplifier
Thanks for the quick feedback Sdmark.

Does wearing glasses affect the sound you hear?
