Just as the Title says.   If you could blend the qualities from two different headphones into one headphone. Which headphones, and what qualities from each would they be?

This picture has been circulating the internet, the big deal people make is about the guns. First thing I noticed was.. Headphones!     I see a pair of Ed8s, a Stax Omega and some other Stax.. Also a Marantz something and a lightsaber. What else does this guy have?

I'm very interested in the absolutely most non-fatiguing high end headphone. Stax, dynamic, orthos?   Thanks

People talk about the drivers failing and other problems.  Why do they fail? I'd be interested in looking around for a used pair but I'd want to know the specifics of what the concerns are.   Thank you to anyone who can help   -Dave

Is it worth owning both?   Thanks :)

Someone mentioned in a thread that Stax recently revised the design of the Omega 2 MKii and some people call it the Mk2.5   Can someone explain:   What the changes were How the changes affect the sound How to spot whether you MK2 pair is the revised version?   Thanks!   -Dave

Just wondering. On the one hand I'm reading about how well the 650s scale, how the sky's virtually the limit with after-market cables and multi-thousand dollar balanced amps, and on the other I'm reading about people moving on up from their 650s to HD800s and LCD-2s. So I'm wondering: have all...

People who have heard several Omega 2 rigs, which is the best amp you've heard them paired with?   I'm leaning towards these two...   HeadAmp Blue Hawaii Woo Audio WES   for those that have heard these two amps, which amp was better to you and how come?  Keep in mind that my pair...

The following was supposed to be a review for the Stax 007mk2, but it ended up including a lot of comparisons with the LCD-2, HD650, and M50, and I thought I'd post it here for those that don't follow the big Stax and LCD-2 threads. Here's the comparison review:   I’ve been hearing about...

Hello all, I just joined and this is post #1. There is a lot of debate here between these two..."tastes great, less filling" sort of thing. After reading it all it's still not clear so I thought I'd ask the question.... I'm making the plunge into a headphone setup and have a chance to buy...

Hi guys,   Just wondering about the difference in sound quality between these 2 headphones. Price isn't too much of a decider here, have been saving for a 'proper' hifi for a while, but now considering headphones as a possible alternative. I understand I will be more limited in my choice of...

Has anyone had this happen? I tried some massive high-end power cords on my 10-year-old Headroom Max (which still does a decent job on newer good headphones like Grado PS1000s and  Beyer T1s) and they created this overwhelming pushy bass and sometimes piercing highs. Specifically, these were...

I've heard everything from Sony R10 and Stax Omega 2 to the PX100 and SR60's being called the most overrated headphones in the audiophile world.   Since the other thread about overrated headphones became mostly about bose, skullcandy and beats...What is your vote for the most overrated...

This poll is reserved only to SR-007 owners who have heard both and have had the time to compare them Correction: the poll is for the MK1 vs Mk2 I am relatively new to the Stax world and have been captivated by electrostatics. I am not really interested on any dynamic cans at this pont. I...

Okay...so, which ones are the best...and which are not so good? can somoeone here make a list of best to worst?

So just breaking in a pair now.  Really like the sound.  Can hear some of the treble emphasis (although can tweak this a little with the ear pad position) that folks have talked about on the forums.  Overall really like the sound out of the box with the WES.  The amp is also new and breaking in...

By popular demand I'm starting a new thread for our discussions on all things Stax and electrostatic due to the unwieldily number of pages of that thread. This thread should be looked on as a direct continuation of the previous thread. Keeping a broad scope with regards to subject matter has...
