I have talked to slwiser on other amp options and I'm seriously thinking about his setup!!

On a different note, what is someone experiences with burn-in time?? I'm going through the normal burn-in and boy does it help!!

Keep in mind i have a new set of SR-007mk2 and the matching tube amp.

Any set standard??



I love to see how many more people are getting into Stax these days. In a perfect world, we would all listen to the O2.

just tried out the newly fixed sigmas on my new amp, and hot damn, i cant remember them being such bass monsters!
now im afraid of trying it with the jecklins, since they already had braindamaging amounts of bass driven by a puny t-amp

hey, the stax offerings, especially the lower end stuff just struck me as a good value.

It is occuring to me now, actually, that I did not in fact get to listen to the 303. hmm...

two headphones to track down, 303 and koss 950.

back to "akiba"

Hey guys, is there anywhere I could get a rundown on the various Stax models and how they fit into the lineup sonically? I've listened to the O2 on a few occasions and have a good idea what it sounds like, but i've no clue about the other models in the Stax lineup.

I was having a browse of some of the systems available at yamasinc.com and noticed the SRM-310 driver for the first time. I personally think this is a very stylish deviation from the normal shoe-box Stax energiser and love the way it doubles as a headphone stand:

But I have no clue how it would sound, if the reccomended pairing of SR-202 earspeakers are any good, and so forth. Information about Stax is somewhat daunting to try unearthing - usually buried in huge threads like this. Can anyone point me to a primer or two? Cheers

Congratulations!

The SR-007MKII sure looks great. More stylish in all black, than the black/silver SR-007A imo..

Enjoy!

The Mk1 had the same system so it was new in 1998...

I do prefer the SR-Omega system with the flexible strain relief and the cables far from the head.

Heres a bit of a stranger question. Does anybody out there know of anyone competent besides SP who can take my ES-1 and take it out of its current chasis while replanting it in a nicer heavier chasis?


Thanks...

I don't know where they get them but I've seen the same cases (the finish and materials used confirm this) housing a number of things like binoculars and tools.
