Long, meandering comparison of Stax 404 and Stax X-III, Episode I
I thought a detailed comparison of the two Stax phones I own might be of interest to a few of you. I've commented briefly in the past on their relative abilities as I see them, but my penchant for verbosity, garrulousness, and completeness has finally made me take the plunge and do a voluminous...- Lloyd297

So who's bit the bullet on a pair of Stax 507's?
Anyone have these on order yet? Twice the price of the 404's, sounds like the class margin of diminishing returns - double the investment for a smallish return. On the other hand I had a friend 30 years ago who paid $800 for a pair of Stax Lambda's and he certainly got his money's...- Jodet

Reasonable way to use Beta 22 with electrostats?
I'm very, very close to pulling the trigger on a Beta 22. (well, commence, anyway). However, is there any reasonable way to use it with electrostatic headphones, such as the Stax 404?
