Not sure about that; those pins are pretty narrow. It's possible they used a thin kerf table saw blade, but the narrowness and inconsistency looks like a hand saw to me. -
Well, those dovetails are machine made, so no real expertise needed.

For me, Stax simply lack focus and I'm not sure how much that is due to the new higher ups or Edifer. I certainly don't agree with the design decisions of the 009, X9000, Lx00 lineup and some just don't make any sense. They are clearly pushing boundaries in some ways with more advanced drivers but major steps backwards with basic stuff like earpad quality. It's not ok that earpads for the L500Mk2 last for a couple of years before they fall apart. Some of the products were just arguably crap, the D50 was so bad it was never sold in Japan. The D10Mk1 was utter trash and I just got a D10Mk2... it's improved in some ways but it still sounds terrible. The SRM-400S is a "what the fuck were they thinking" product and on the whole, they just took the original circuits and doubled the price. -
There is a podcast called The Julia La Roche Show. It's basically a series of interviews dealing with macroeconomic and market issues. The host is not particularly good as an interviewer, but that turns out to be more feature than bug as she tends to have smart people on her show and she just lets them talk. Anyway, this is not a recommendation for the podcast in general as there are better ones on the same topic. However, one recent interview is worth a listen. It's with Scott Galloway (a B-school professor at NYU). I don't think he is right about everything, or really anything in particular, so this isn't an endorsement of his views, but I think what he has to say is interesting and worth listening to. The first few minutes are pretty banal middle class investment stuff, but it gets more interesting.
