    Arrived yesterday and it really opens up every electrostatic headphone that I own. I was looking for an amp that can bring more bass out of my HE90 than HEV90 so I drained my pocket to bid on this and

  • I have been getting back at this..working up to a limited run of these as the STAX SR-X9000 and Audeze CRBN have made that need to happen. But the chassis is extraordinarily expensive and difficult to

SR-Omega on Y!JP

Looks like it is malfunctioning... :(

The seller says that it works fine, but has the Stax fart. He checked with Stax about the farting, and Stax said that it's not a problem.

Ahhh epic failure on the part of online translators. The SR-Omega shouldn't fart though, at least nothing compared to the SR-007 :confused:

Do they ever fart? Since the seller contacted Stax about the farting, I don't think he's tried the SR-007. :P

From Stax's reply to the seller, it sounds like some SR-Omegas fart more than others.

There is zero noise in normal operation on my two sets but if you force the diaphragms they will squeal. The basic design of the SR-Ω isn't as airtight as the SR-007 (air can escape under the pads for instance) so squealing might be an indication of something bad or just normal. I don't really need a third set... :rolleyes:

Stop tempting me 8) I really need to listen to Omega and Omega 2 one of these days, but I am afraid I will want to buy one if I do.

If this guy does not buy mine (will give him a few more weeks) you can borrow mine. It is only a stax mk 1/2 amp with lambda sigs will also send lambda pros. It's not an bhse and omega but it still sounds great.

BUY A SR-007!!!!! You really like the LNS and the SR-007 is an even better version of that same sound signature.

so, who is going to let me borrow a STAX rig? i've never heard one :(

Epic fail!!!! I have some amps that you could borrow but all of my spare phones are spoken for.

could i hook up my Shure E530s to the amps in question?

If you want fireworks, then yes.

YES!

Neat!!! If you want a hybrid amp then it has to drive either type through transformers (works either way, up or down) or have two amps in the same box like that SP amp.

i was just making a joke :)

I know and I educated you at the same time. See how much fun Stax is!! :D

I hate that Reks hasn't given me a sexy custom title yet, oh and I hate both your assfaces!

I also find it fitting that Stax should fart on your head.

I was talking to a couple of people at the last mini meet and I have no idea why its called the stax fart. It doesnt sound like a fart to me ???

and I want a new custom title too!

I had fun at the meet this weekend when one guy who tried my Stax thought he did break something while it was in fact only the famous OII fart. :D

The only thing I ever hear is the less famous and less illustrious Stax crinkle.

Hard to say, never heard an O2 so don;t know if there;s any difference :confused:

Is the crinkle the fart? Because I hear the crinkle

When I had the Lambda Signature, it was definitely a crinkle and not a fart. On the OII, it's really a fart sound. Not the kind of deep fart that you produce after eating a big meal at a fast-food lebanese restaurant, more like a small fart you wish nobody has heard. :P

I think we should call it the (pip)squeak.

Ah, a womans fart (excluding my wife of course, who farts like a blunderbuss filled with wet offal) :P
