My iFi adapter is putting out 9.391 V (no load) and I've had no issues.
You mean our iPower?

In fairness to Koss, I should say that they finally seemed to have fixed all problems. Knock on wood but I’ve had them back for about a month and been enjoying them with no issues. I only paid for the first return; they paid shipping on the rest. Customer service could not have been nicer.I ended up returning them for a full refund and now looking to invest that money into stax.
I just tried this and it instantly worked. Whether this phenomenon is a combination of electrostatic discharge or humidity I'm not sure. The worst thing is low level listening for microdetail and there is a background interference.Yes, it happened. Put them on and push gently the cup against your ear. That will move the membrane slightly and (for me) solve the issue.
I thought the sound was really underwhelming too... then I disabled the 'stereo to mono' DSP that was enabled while volume matching the Koss channels...I tried the ESP950 with the Stax SRM1-mk2, and I felt it as anemic compared to the E/90. You can turbo charge the E/10 with a better power supply. I purchased a 120 watt 3-24 volt regulated power supply, and it can put out 10 amps current. The regulator smooths out the performance, increases dynamics. If I remembering correctly the volt swing is +- 370 with the SRM1-mk2 where as the E/90 does around +- 1200 volts.
Please let me know how your Stax amp works out for you.
Check and see if Birgir has any of these. Otherwise look at Darin Fongs websiteBumping this thread again for adaptor cables and earpads that anyone might have
