Got a new baby home: a Stax SR007 Mk1 early version... in mint condition. :beyersmile:



Initial listening show that is it not better or less good than my SR009, it is just different and a very good complement : SR009 for classical music and SR007 for pop/rock or SR009 for critical listening with attention to the details, and SR007 for cool and relax listening. The 007 indeed offer (a little) less details BUT is (IMO) more round and more engaging.

So, with the purchase of this SR007 mk1 I can move my EC445 / Hifiman HE500 (modded) to another room, and just kept the BHSE/STAXs in my listening room. This clean a little the top of my Audio furniture.


Be careful of the cable attachment. The reason for the MK2 was to eliminate potential stress on the cable connectors.

My Sony all-in-one system. Clear, neutral sound. The kind of sound i've come to prefer after 10 years of exploration in this hobby.

TH900 cups on TH600/variants?
As an other member said, it's a Fostex purpleheart TH-X00 with the normal cups. Although I wish it was the TH900 lol (well..not really, I've modified my TH-X00 so it might sound as good as the TH900).

It looked redder to me for some reason. Out of curiosity, is anyone else bothered by the fact the fostex logo is on vertically?? Driving me insane...

Lol I modified the inside of the cups with some special material ( I don't know what the material is called) to improve the sound and it wasn't until I put the cups back on that I realised this. All that matters to me is the sound.

If you want to have fun at the expense of the OCDers here (damn near all of us), rotate them so they are upside down!
