Hey guys! I'm soon to be joining team stax! Was trying to decide between an audio.gd compass+k701 or a low end stax setup, but then got hit by a stax (portable!) audition and now theres no turning back.
Just won an SRM-T1S on yahoo japan, but no earspeakers yet. Are these better than the SRM212/313s? I listen to classical mainly, which earspeaker should i get for a budget of $300? I'm looking at lambda pros, SR-2020/3030 mainly.
Also, im trying to decide between vinyl and a dac setup. Either a used technics SL-D2(do recommend a preamp if one is needed) or a new V-DAC.
I really fell in love with the stax sound after listening to the portable stax (SR001MK2) and would love some help in these areas...Thanks!
Edit: Do i need a power transformer for these? My country is at 240V, and its rated at 100V. I saw spritzers instructions on how to change the voltage, but i dont understand them and i dont know if theyll apply to my amp =(
Also, theres an SRM-T2 on sale at yahoo jpn. Current price is 150,000JPY, which is around 1.8k usd i think, if anyones interested
