Hah, I remember seeing that or a similar auction on rinkya and thinking it was BS.

Radio_head has a very good point in that larger stands such as the Sieveking Sound Omega may stretch out the SR-009 band over time. OTOH, the Room's FS would be almost perfect, except that its design won't accommodate a cover such as the CPC-1, as per the images below. Ether way, I found them for sale at two German online retailers, Thomman and Madooma, but not in the US. In the end, it looks like the Stax HPS-2 is the best compromise for now.
 

 
 

 
I just ordered this in mahogany for my 009s and this looks much easier to take on/off the stand compared to the omega shaped stand i have now.
plus, no compression on earpads or band stretching.
 
i assume it will take a week or two to get here.

Will the Stax cover be able to fit?

apparently not, according to previous posts.
 
i'm brainstorming ways to create a custom cover that would be attractive in my living room.
anyone have an idea on something cool looking?

I have a My Little Pony shopping bag around my Stax when I'm not using them. I cosplay Hello Kitty religiously when I'm listening to them.

 
I second the idea of Kitty-cover.
 
Downright untouchable.

It probably wont fit but if you want some measurements I've got a cpc-1 lying around somewhere.

I'm looking at getting a taste of STAX electrostatic headphones but I don't want to go crazy past the point of diminishing return. Any recommendations for a price/performance setup?

The SR-5NB (black SR-5) and SR-X Mk3 are still too underrated but that is my opinion.
Maybe the latter is not too comfortable some but I find the comfort to be excellent with new pads.
You can drive these with an SRM1Mk2 Pro or SRMT1 or an SRD7 plus speaker amp (personally I prefer Stax amps)
The SR-Lambda is really good too, just not easy to find in decent shape.

The original Stax SR-Lambda is amazing if you can find one being sold for a decent price by someone who isn't a flipper.
