The adapter is 100V Japanese version. I was too excited to wait until getting a converter so I just plug it in

Now I don't find anything wrong with it so I'm keeping it as is out of the box. It might be a bad idea tho

Do you guys think I seriously need a converter?

Nice writeup. Enjoyed reading.

I really don't know if it's important to have a converter. I've just read that they can get a little bit warm on the wrong current, but I don't know if that's a big deal.

Thanks for the kind words peeps.

It is really exciting to see more people jumping into the world of stats.

I think you guys will be very happy you decided to.

Great peanut minds think alike my elephant friend.

Actually I think me and you have very similar ears as I almost always agree with your impressions too. In fact, I was looking for some OO Getter EL34's for my BH solely because of your praise.

We can make a Stax Appreciation Thread right here in front of the nose of dynamic world

 

[n3rdling]

Don't degrade Stax with that appreciation thread stuff.

There's a Stax thread for a reason. I guess I think of appreciation threads as fanboyism instead of serving a purpose by welcoming critique.

Yes. Any 12VDC/1000mA adapter will work if you make sure to observe the correct polarity of the plug. Stax has the barrel as + and the pin as -.

Well said, I agree.

Im really glad that everything turned out well, we shure did all in our power to get you in the mafia.... As it has been said before, next step 404le -> O2. Once you get there it will stop!

BTW, In regards to timmyxxxx post, I have the jh13's I wouldn't necessarily say that they beat the 202's, they are a very, very different thing. The 404's imo, are better than the jh13 in most aspects.... and many times I actually prefer the UltraFatCat 001's.... but still its difficult to compare customs with stax. Strange guy....

Whoa, peanuts... I'm hungry, where are those peanut M&Ms hiding?

Mullard xf2 should be the default tubes on every BH!

He was recruited into and has joined the Stax Mafia?!

I was told it doesn't exist, and therefore my application denied.

nice write up! another vn fellow here btw

you should really take some decent ic's into consideration. the radio shack ones is shadowing your stax

and i've gotta say, you're braver than me to choose the electrostat path.

I enjoyed reading your review SillyHoney however I felt a little lost and empty inside when there were no accompanying pictures.

 

[HeadphoneAddict]

Thanks for the review. I remember the first time I posted my thoughts on the Stax SR-Lambda with SRM-1 Mk2 Pro and how it bested my Woo WA6 with re-cabled HD600 or RS-1. Your journey is just starting.
