Rayzilla..
Just remember that Stax are very delicate and only have 1year warranty and that can be stressful with such expensive gear.
Other than that, they are really great and offcoss quite different from HD800, but not a lot better.. Only with vocals, IMHO.
Use to own 009 and 007mkI.

I listened to 009 + Blue Hawaii and agree with your assessment. At 3 x the $, I personally can't justify.
The Valhalla 2 at $349 pairs excellently with the HD 800's if you don't mind the tubes. http://schiit.com/products/valhalla-2
For a real inexpensive option you could try the Vali...Thank you.
Any other recommendations please?

Well, I already have the O2 amp, so I'm looking for an upgrade.
I thought tube amp will make a huge difference..

My HD800 cable ripped(after the y split, on the left side). What do you think about ADL cables for HD800? The iHP-35Hx? That's the only one I can get locally without getting it custom made(and also one of the cheapest).
I'm pretty happy with my ADL cable. Although there are probably better out there, I'm not planning on changing it for a while.
ooh that looks amazing. Is it built though? I don't care too much about improving SQ. I need good build quality. Thanks!
