As you can see in my sig, I own a pair of stax phones. I am finishing up an electronics course for my Chem PhD. I build a lot of circuits and do some soldering. The lab is quite painful(20+ hours/wk for 2 credit hr) and I thought I would use my hard won knowledge to build an electrostatic amp. I know both of these amps are overkill for my Sr-x mk III, but I will upgrade to one of the top tier phones over the summer.
I know neither amp is beginner friendly, but I feel up to the challenge. I would be looking to build the amp with good but not boutique components. I would hope to keep the cost to around $800 for the amp and I would use the hybrid supply for both. Below are a few questions I have.
1. Is the BH a much harder build and does it sound that much better?
2. What is the best way to create two different baises?
3. Is there a caseworking guide on the internet?
Thanks for your time.
