  Are there any other differences between these two SR-007 MKll's besides their colors?

Thank you,
I appreciate any information.

 
No

Well, perhaps a definite "maybe", or possibly a definitive "possibly" but not an authorative 'yes" which may occasion the consumption of your words at a later date......  

 
There is such a concept as production variability to contend with.

  No

Thank you.

Do you know which out of the two are the currently produced?
Thank you.

So does anyone know if the newer 007MK2 is silver or black…or is there a choice of color?
I'm asking because I'm going to purchase a 007 and I see both Stax USA/PJ show the 007 in silver with no color choice, Thanks.

I think the USA version is black and Japan is Silver.

Thank you…I'm actually bidding on a *NEW* black SR-007MK2 and the ad states that it comes with a U.S. warranty so that would make sense.
Thanks again.

The SR-007A is the domestic Japan version in silver. The SR-007 Mk2 is the export version in all black. Supposedly all the same drivers.

Thank you.
I guess this dosen't apply to the SR-009?
Also, has anyone heard both the domestic/export version and claim to hear differences in sound?

The SR-007MK2 is black and for the international market whereas the SR-007A is silver and for the Japanese market. Both are still in production. STAXUSA.com does not sell the latter; they only sell the black version.

There are impressions all over the Internet from people who have heard both the SR-007MK2 and SR-007A and heard differences between them. There are reportedly various unannounced revisions of both that sound different too. For example, some have nicknamed them the SR-007MK2.5 or SR-007MK2.75. Just do some creative Google searching and you'll find a wealth of info.

There are no reason to believe Stax has a line up of a hundred japanese golden ears that spend all day dividing the production of drivers into export and home market.
Even though a number of people claim that there are variations in sound it doesn't mean that one is definetely better than another ... just a bit different that's alll

I figured I would try them out, I'm very curious how they sound. Thanks for the information, but Stax USA shows the (silver) color not the black as well as PJ.

I like to base my judgment on first hand experience (mine or a trusted source), not rumors and innuendo by people with no direct experience with the products being asked about... citing things the way they have been lately on this thread is pretty useless IMO.

No it doesn't...?
 

Spoiler: screenshots

 
If you are seeing silver on STAXUSA.com, please take screenshots and post them here in a spoiler box.

Music Alchemist, you're clearly not looking hard enough. Look again and then again and then refresh or come back in 5 minutes after a breathe of fresh air. Don't give up.

I also like to base my own judgement which is why I want to hear the 007MK2 for myself being I have the 009.
I take impressions with a grain of salt.

Your right…I meant PJ dosen't show them in black which was already explained why to me...and I would like black being my 009 is silver but I don't want to pay Stax USA prices which is why I'm bidding on (THESE). Otherwise I would have ordered them from PJ.
If I lose the bid I will then order them from PJ in silver.
