do you guys with the sr-009 (or any other stax headphone) encounter this? like if you move your jaw with the headphones on your head, there's a static clipping in the headphones. ths seems to happen more on the right side for me than the left. is this normal?

 

[Caution]

Are you referring to the infamous STAX fart? Does it sound like a crinkle? Or does it actually sound like static electricity?
 
If it sounds like a crinkle that's normal. If it sounds like static that's not normal.

okay i guess it sounds more like a crinkle than static. i just associated sharp short bursts of cracking sound with static. why does it do that anyway!
 
edit: okay i googled stax fart. i guess another question I had about stax solved.

Yeah, the Stax SR-009 doesn't have good table manners, it tends to fart while you're eating.

Typical with any Stax phone that seals and doesn't have vented ports just for that reason (like the earlier SR-007 Mk2). Nothing to worry about.
