I would really like to here more from the community about the voce, fluffers aside of course.

Dann 007 developed a diver imbalance that I couldn't solve by hitting it, so sent back for service. I'm staxless atm, meh.

Ouch. I should probably pick up a used SR-007Mk2 or A as backup (current production) so that I never become Staxless.

I will definitely write my VOCE impressions here. Not sure when I will get my hands on one though.

There is a Voce prototype impressions thread. There are views here,
https://www.head-fi.org/threads/mrs...rototype-listening-impressions.804022/page-62

but the Voce is now a fully production headphone and I feel we should have a new "Mr Speakers Voce" thread.

So I might start one tomorrow if someone else doesn't.

Hi everyone

My SRM-T1 has exploded. Or rather fizzled out to silence. No lights go on when I try to power it up.

I am in Germany. Should I trust "Stax" (ATR) to bring it back to spec? Or should I send it to someone independent (http://www.audio-reparatur.de for example)?

Any tips gratefully received.

Good idea. By "here" I actually just meant on Head-Fi in general but yes we are in need of a VOCE thread.

Yes we should also disqualify those with at t2 of reviewing any headphone because they never get more than a sentence in before the original objective of said review is abandoned and it degenerates into purely praise for the t2..

Lol - guilty!

All this T2 talk makes me feel like my BHSE is inadequate...

All right. Let's see some pics of your newly acquired BHSE, please

Take heart, I enjoyed the hell out of the BHSE for 2 years, even knowing full well what Purk's T2 sounded like. It's still such a great amp compared to everything else. But then the voices in my head finally made me give in. And yes - pics! Color? I kinda always wanted one flashy like blue or purple or seafoam green. Champagne looks great! Silver is so well done, and black is so classy. Too hard to choose one.

So, this is a bit of a guess as I've never laid eyes on any version fo the T2, and come to think of it, I've never driven a Porsche, but, using an auto analogy:

The T2 is like a Porsche 918 - ultra-exclusive, state of the art, very powerful (0-60 in 2.3 sec) and very complex

The BHSE is like a Porsche 911 GT3 - close to state of the art, a bit less powerful (0-60 in 3.0 sec) and somewhat less complex

The SRX Plus is like a Porsche Boxster - stripped down, a much simpler machine, less powerful (0-60 in 5 sec) but still a blast

Hah yeah, no doubt I'm enjoying the BHSE. Perhaps my wallet will have the appetite for T2 some day.

I wish it was Champagne, that finish is gorgeous. I upgraded from a KGSShv, I would say the difference is noticeable but not night and day. I think it sounds great w/ stock tubes already but I do have some Svetlana Winged C en route per @joseph69's recommendation.

Anyway, here's my humble setup!

 

[tigon_ridge]

The BHSE is an upgrade from a noncarbon KGSShv? Is that a consensus?

 

[JimL11]

Yes, the consensus is that the Carbon and BHSE are at the same level, the KGSSHV is a level below.

@Whitigir
After looking at the photo posted by @koven, I realized that Stax even suspends the headphones by the suspension strap.
