Agree with the Ranking just dislike the srm 007t ...

 
SRM-007t (version with normal output) works very well with Stax SR Sigma NB.
 
SRM1 MK2 Pro only C-version and P.P. also very good amps, i forgot it

Just to summarise, good earspeakers that are definitely worthwhile?

SR5
SRX MK3
Lambda NB
Lambda Pro
Sigma NB, but Pro better
Lambda Signature
Lambda Nova Signature
207
404-LE
407
009
007 mk. 1
Omega

Just some random thoughts?

David:

Have you ranked these in any particular order?

Thanks

No particular order.

For me it'd be:
SR-009>>>007 mk. 2>LS
>Sigma NB>Lambda NB>307

Haven't heard much else for longer periods of time.

I have a SRM-1/mk2 pro (not P.P.), C-version...is this one that different from A and B versions ? :confused:
Works fine with SR-009, SR-5 and SR-Lambda NB, BTW.

All the SRM1 MK2 are good but the older A and B versions are not only older but were built with cheaper parts. The late C Version was improved and especially the pp with 2 pro bias outputs.

So I refurbished my A version with nice new resistors, caps, and diodes.  I also plan on adding a pro plug.  where would it rate now?  how much of a circuit change was there in the late versions?

Hi all, I'm in the process of reconfiguring a SRM-1/MK-2 and want to confirm whether or not the leads into the transformer is properly set up so that I can rewire according to spritzer's post here: http://www.head-fi.org/t/223263/the-stax-thread-new/5835#post_3902577
 
Am I good to go?

if it was a 100V unit originally, you will have to pop open the plastic top and resolder
the wires. If it was a 240V unit, you will be ok.

This one's indeed a "100V ONLY" unit, an early revision A. How should I be soldering the leads once I get the plastic cap off?
 
EDIT: Would this (http://www.head-fi.org/t/223263/the-stax-thread-new/23610#post_9623345) be the procedure you're referring to?
