Thanks for your reply. The amp looks great in the new case. What is the white block at the bottom? What did you changed at the input?

Hi Nomenec, Interesting post. Do you have pictures of your modded amp? Spritzer doesn't Like the 407, but what do you think of it in comparison with the 207? I have heard the 407 and it sounded OK to me, but I am no expert.

The modded Chinese KGSSS with the 207 looks very interesting to me. Unfortunally the 207 is only sold as part of the SRS2170 system, so this makes this route rather expensive. Thanks for your warming tot reverse the polarity. I think I would'nt have noticed it. I am looking forward to the new thread.

I see that I made a mistake. The SRS-3170 set is with the 307 phone and not the 207. So I mean the the 323S + 207 instead of SRS3170. The 727 amp is far too expensive to me.

Hi Spritzer, Thanks for your quick response. As I understand you correct; the 207 is a better phone than the 407 and the 323amp is better amp than the 006t. So I will be better off buying the SRS-3170 set instead of the SRS-4170? The shop where I was listening offered only the SRS 4170 set, so I could not compare them. Woo offers the Ges amp and the 407 as a bundle. Even with import duty and Vat it is cheaper than the SRS-4170 set. Unfortunately they don’t sell the 207. Do you think this combination offers a better quality than the SRS-3170 set? The Chinese amp in combination with the 207 looks also interesting. I am no technician, but I have soldered some amps, so I am able to replace the pot and some resistors. I only need to know which and the values ofcourse. Photo’s of the modified amp would be wonderful. Thanks again, Cornelis

Hi all, I need your advice for the best amp to use with a SR- 407 . Last week I have listened to the SRS-4170 system and it sounded quite good to my ears. As I learned from this thread, there are other amps to use with the SR-407. Some of you tested the Chinese KGSS. It sounded OK, but there were some shortcomings. After that the subject disappeared from this thread. I also read a lot of positive reviews of the Woo Ges-amp. This one should sound a bit warmer than the Stax SRM-006tII, but I didn’t thought the 006 was sounding cold. I live in the Netherlands and there is no possibility to listen to Ges or the Chinese amp. The Chinese amp is a lot and the Ges a bit cheaper than the 006. Apart from the price I want the best amp, so I need your advice. Most of the time I listen to chamber- and choir-music, but I also listen to Tom Waits, Nick Cave etc. Perhaps this disqualifies me in the ears of some Stax-users, but I own a Hifi-man-400 headphone and I must admit that I like the sound of it, especially the low frequencies. Thanks in advance, Cornelis
