Someone find me a set of broken 009's and I can figure out what the fuck is going on with the newer Stax. No way I'm going to rip open my sets..
This has to be an issue with the new PEEK diaphragm material though. Properly heat-treated and high tension mylar as Stax have used is very stable indeed. They could also have changed the coating materials as PEEK has very different properties compared to mylar.
I asked then we should start to fear with a new sr-007 too. Unfortunately the answer was yes I have at least 15db imbalance now.The phones were bought from PJ last Christmas so would be under warranty in Japan yet. I heard about the problems with PJ but if Kaneda could accept the phones I would send them probably because I had no problems with PJ myself.
- Is there any new development can I do (check?) something If I open the phones?
- I remember it was told the UK service accepts any phones for repair including the japanese variations or not ? Any other service option ?
- I have not heard about any positive outcome from this issue were any ?

Boards payed, thanks!

Yes, I thought so. Thank you for the answer.

Hi John,
I wanted to ask for a time what for the xlr outs on your Carbon beauty, when do you use them?. They are connected to the inputs, not? I know two connected inputs are usual at Stax but I preferred until now some switched single ended inputs as second inputs. The problem is the switch, good switch is a hard to find thing, so I am thinking about what to choose.

5 alphas, 2-3 will be good ? No point to return so low the price and the quantity.

Got the boards (GRLVs), thanks!

I prefer the longer shaft too. Afaik the shaft is 20 mm, 6 mm threaded. 25 mm above the threaded part is 31 so let the shaft 30 mm.

Making a new firmware is not the same as making an unwanted firmware update I am afraid of the second, maybe I am paranoid a little.

I have an Oppo BDP-93EU from the beginnings with the old firmware - ISO support, no Cinavia, SACD-R I do not know what was taken out from the fw yet. The network firmware update can be disabled but I am not brave to connect it to the internet, that is true there is not much network possibilities in the EU version. What do you think about the Pioneer BDP-170 it is always on on the network anytime can be updated ?

Thanks for the answers. It helps because I thought too the center pad can not be made with an iron and there are videos about everything and the opposit of it so I was not sure. I have soldered similar chips with lots of flux and with solder braid to remove the bridges but I do not like it. Yes, I wanted to say stencil not mask.
-
I got the parts from soren. I think the resistors and relays can be soldered by soldering iron but the ic-s hardly. Not only the size but the thermal pad seems hard. I made some smt but never with the.solder paste, hot gun method. It was told this is possible with iron, how ? If I have to choose the paste method how can I apply the paste without a mask? Any advice or good tutorial would be appreciated.

You think the new 007a -s are made with this PEEk diaphragm too and we should start to fear ?
I was glad in the morning because I thought I heard so details in the Bartók Concerto (Ozawa SACD) as only in a real concert so I started to think about to relisten my all old symphonic recordings. Too long term plan ? -
I have a Weller TCP for more than 30 years, indestructable indeed.

Payment sent. Thanks

You are right. Panspermia is a theory about how the life, living organisms or the building matter of the organisms transported in the interstellar space. The Big Bang is the theory the now expanding universe some time ago was a microscopic point and banged from there and is banging on and on now

This is the same concept of transpermia held by Hoyle and Wikramasinghe which was replaced by the Big bang.
Origin of the Universe and origin of life are two things or not ?

I'm really sorry, that thread was posted at Posted 11 Jun 2008, and I read it before I posted, now is 20xx, time flowed and many things changed, actually now we have to make clear the first question firstly: 007 mk2.9 is the cruciality of the question, cos 007 mk2.9 is our Mr. spritzer's favorite HPs on Earth. So, how to get a 007 ver.Right to mod it into a mk2.9 is the question of this silly questional question.
You should read a few pages back in the thread you find answers if you were really interested.

From that Spritzer told about the mod,to compensate the overblown bass, I thought the opposite. I will try the mod later but I am curious. Now I am listening to my new ( almost sure it is really new
) 007, I need a few weeks usually to decide I like the new toy or not.

The Headcase Stax thread

I took apart the left side until it was easy. Not the driver it is sealed with a sticker. The cable is good the connection to the driver is good, no visible harm. Except a thin white hair under the dustcover on the inner stator and a little dirt. An other piece of hair under the port cover - what about the dustproof room ? Maybe the dirt is the cause but I am not sure. These are almost new headphones so if PJ not answer my first option is a service, an european service beacause I can not send the phones across the customs anywhere. According to Stax the overseas disrtributors are the services the hungarian is definately not, I will write to the UK distributor I think. I would not afraid to inspect the diaphragm or do the recoating only the dust and this PEEK thing bothers me a little we will see.
