^ No they should stop the gimmicks like "first edition" as it's meaningless, sad part is that it worked on me

Not exactly a deal, but due to the high value of the US dollar vs JPN yen you can buy STAX SR009 very cheap (comparatively) in the US.
As you can see on XE, we're at a significant high http://www.xe.com/currencycharts/?from=USD&to=JPY&view=1Y (graph is # of JPN yen per USD, aka higher = more USD buying power)
Pricejapan has their current listing (forwarding service) at $[COLOR=333333]2,778
Also, this has caused a lot of people to drop prices in the used marked... so if you're considering buying some STAX this is a pretty good time![/COLOR]
SR007? And was your quoted price for a kit including the amp?
Are you talking about buying from STAX direct, using a Japan-to-US forwarding service?
I'm not sure if you can call yourself cheap when you just bought a spare pair of SR-009 headphones.
I don't know if anyone posted it, but on the Pono thread there was a post about a discounted Pono, about $250, have to sign up for their newsletter. Great deal on a great sounding DAP (please don't start with the lack of streaming, hi resolution, or other straw men...it is a DAP, think most here know what that is, not a phone, not a connected streaming player, not a vacuum cleaner...)
