Yep you'll hear source differences like never before with a great Stax chain like that. Potentially you may still crave more bass than even a great Stax setup will yield, which would be a sad state to be in, as you noted - there's perhaps no going back once you've experienced the Stax detail, speed, and clarity. And fortunately for me, it's plenty of bass. You may also be one of those who prefers the 007 over 009 - the former has more "bloom" to its bass, though I love how hard clean and fast the 009/009S bass hits, particularly with the Carbon. Give it some time, too - "brain burn in" is real.
And if crazy enough, you can always end up pursing a DIY T2 build, which is absolutely THE last word in sound quality and bass for Stax headphones
