The Headcase Stax thread
I've not heard anything but I think it would be a good move to continue with them.

I find it quite funny that they use the wide PC-OCC cable and not the thin Lambda Pro cable as all the basic sets have used.

The ultimate DIY? A Stax SRM-T2!
Only the heaters are different so once that has been accounted for there is no difference.

RIP someone or another
That is sad indeed.

Stax L700
The 4070 is the same or even slightly worse than the Lambdas (due to the extra weight pushing on the earpads) but the Sigma would be ideal.

Necessity amp [edit: ended up M3]
I've been down this road before and it is a dangerous way to DIY, as in I have these two parts, let's spend 400$ on parts for it... As for those specs, the M3? It uses a single brick psu but sounds pretty shitty thanks to the rail splitting.

Adding feedback is just a band aid and likely does more harm than good.

The L700 is not the same driver as the 009. Similar stator structure but that's it.

Wells Audio amps....any experience?
Ahhh yes, let's use some old carbon comp resistors and caps which are way past their sell by date. Yup...sounds like a plan. The Riken and Koa's are pretty nice though but miles away from the old stuff.

No but can you see any other reason for that? I mean these are 1ohm 5% carbon resistors so it is clearly a scam with no proven benefits.

Those or something very similar are what I'm using.

That's because he's paid to like it. Sort of makes his entire stance worthless IMO...

If you want SS then build a Dynahi... It's stable too which is always nice...

The Knuckledragger 3rd Memorial Slow Forum Post
The last picture is apt as the authorities are trying to keep people alive in that place. Basically if you venture into the surf you are done for as it will grab you and smash you to bits. Pretty sad how reckless people are here given that there are deathtraps everywhere.

The Headcase Stax thread
Well you could recoat but it is not a simple thing to do. Well the actual process is simple but it has ramifications. First off, opening the drivers will introduce them to dust and squealing. Second you need to coat both drivers and getting right isn't so easy. You might end up with constant static hissing or massive charge issues.

Antek transformer as well...

No need to recoat the diaphragms. Either they will bounce back on their own or try to hit the offending side with a bit of force. That might fix it.

Go go magical 1ohm 5% resistors.

Expensive and/or raved-about headphones that actually suck!
Well the 007 is pretty much impossible to get now with a huge waiting list but a lot of the 009's popularity stems from one simple fact, it is the most expensive of the lot. Same thing for the new L700, how many have considered the L500 over the 700? Probably not many as more expensive is always moar bettah.
