September is what I was told when my order went in last month
Having built line arrays where the effects of comb filtering vs centre to centre distance and also having played with the effects of port dimensions on speaker response group delay and other issues I would have to disagree I've made and measured speakers that show these issues...
Same to me on german distributor.Got in the preorder queue, slot the 009S in the amp as well as the 009 for an easy comparison. I am being told mid June delivery.
As pricejapan is out of order (for pretty much 2 years now ?), what would be the best way to buy an 009S at japanese price ?

My personal preference for the 009S would be something with a tube based on hearing it with the T8000 and what I think of the original 009’s character.
Since I am relatively new to the Stax game I can only state from what littlevI have experienced. One common thread I do see is almost universal hatred of the T8000. Is it really that bad? If so then aren't Stax doing a disservice to the 009S by demoing with this amp (although I realize they have to). Does that also imply that the 009S are most likely even better than initial reports considering that people have only heard them with the T8000?
Are the other Stax tube amps held in equal disdain?
I know I can count on you ArnaudI'm more than happy to order one for you Ali . Then, if you're concerned about it performing as expected, there is no issue with me doing a preliminary run in on the BHSE either .
The price is that different from France? (BTW, if import duties are a concern and provided I get it on time, I am traveling to France during first 2 weeks of august...)
cheers,
arnaud
