Hey guys I'm fairly new to electrostatics, I've had the pleasure of trying a few pairs but beyond that I'm just trying to wrap my head around the somewhat confusing line of various vintage/current production electrostatic headphones and amps that are available out there. I have a pretty good idea of the Stax line now I think, I've taken quite a bit of time to look into most of the models they have and have had in past. However I was recently looking at the Woo GES, and I'm wondering (in terms of SQ), where it most likely fits into the Stax line-up? Price-wise I have a fairly good idea of course. I assume the Woo would handle something like a Lambda-Pro very well, but what I wonder about is its capability to deal with something like an Omega II. One can ask for the HE90 upgrade output, so I assume the Woo is capable of handling any of these higher end electrostats too, or am I wrong? Would it be "worse" than simply going with a high end stax amp made specifically to be paired up with the OII's? I'm just trying to get a good sense of where things all fit together (although sadly I know rarely are things that black/white
)
