Wow. Loving them. Never owned a high end headphone before. Bought these because my speakers are Quads. They are spacially wonderful, low noise, bass is better than I expected, and very comfortable (surprisingly.) Using with a very high end vinyl system. Only complaint would be that they sound a bit dry. Not getting that tactile sense of people playing instruments the way I'm used to with the Quads. Toshiba match pair of tubes on the way. Hopefully those'll warm things up a bit.

Be sure to check in at the dedicated Stax thread for further temptations and assistance/further impressions. Congratulations are in order. Good idea to jump right into them as the first main purchase.

I would also replace all the electrolytic capacitors in the amp as any T1 is 20 years old at this point.
