Headphoneus Supremus
It does not matter. He seems like a genuinely nice guy who is enthusiastic about Stax, who received this headphone early and wants to share his opinion.I see the hypocrisy of my own comment on where I see the marketing of the headphone going - the issue with the YT’er is that he’s made many “final” statements with theatrical certainty that it’s difficult to gauge what his opinion is.
I’m sure Stax will continue to make more tweaks. I’m less certain they can improve on the design substantially. The srx9k is a revisit of the sr-omega design with innovation of the sr-009S technology.
So even if he talked rubbish I would still not berate him.
I think the is providing an interesting insight about what happens when you receive a headphone like this. Plus, his opinion is not that much different to mine actually.
And, coincidentally, we also tested it on the similar amps as well (he has a standard KGSSHV and a JR Audio Carbon and again he shares everything about his setup.)
So far not many have them, so others may say completely different things, this is one of not many opinions, but there is no difference between all of them: either take them or leave them, simple as that.
He didn't say things like "planars are now beating electrostats because they are just as fast and have more slam."
This is more the type of "useful consumer advice" you'll come across here, or personal attacks., things like that.
I do not like that at all, and that's why I prefer not to share my impressions.
