400€ would be nice, the shipping via DHL from germany would be around 25€ from what the ebay seller said.

Unfortunately the change of some one knowing what a STAX is here is about 0,5% even a simple sennheiser is hard to find..

STAX SR LAMBDA EARSPEAKERS (Headphones)+SRM-1/MK2 AMP on eBay (end time 12-Oct-10 21:03:39 BST)

I'm not sure how the well the 404LE represents the Lambda series but this thing could use more bass. You know, the more you delve deep in this hobby the more you realize that there is no perfect solution that caters all frequencies...

FTFY

Anybody tried buying anything from here directly? I emailed them a few times but never got a reply but the prices are listed in EUR and USD as well. This might be good:

SRS-2050A

Actually there should be quite a few owners of stax headphones in Portugal as well of other high end headphones and amplifiers, but they're just not that much participant in forums. I remember a high end shop in Lisbon having some stax, at prohibitive prices though!

360$ without shipping and stuff isn't a bit to much for those?

Yeah that's what I though even if they existed they should have ridiculous prices.

Yes, I guess a better deal can be found (like that SR-Lambda I posted earlier which is a bit pricey but comes with a better amp as well, if not Pro bias) but if you could buy from the directly I guess it would be similar as buying one from the auction (as you skip the deputy fees and domestic shipping) but the main problem is the exchange rate being too bad.

Yeah I would love to snatch that one from UK, his condition is mint, but something says me the bidding is going to end with an odd number... And the value of the

The are on audiogon Stax srxmk3/srm-1/mk2 For Sale | AudiogoN 400$, are they any good ?

Not bad sounding, very accurate and analytical, but they sound too cold for my taste. I much prefer Lambda and Sigma. The deal is nice if both headphones and amp are in good condition.

Depending on the condition, yes.

But come SR-X sets are plagued with arcing on the drivers (creates imbalance). But if this one was only driven with a direct drive amp, there shouldn't be any issues.

Oh, and they are not comfortable - at least for me..

I'm gonna let this one pass then.. What about this one Stax SRM-3 Lambda Nova Classic 423$.

I would pass it, the SRM-3 is said to be one of the worst amps, an SRM-1 Mk2 should be much better.

Are you going to list every Stax deal you find?

The ones I'm not sure, I don't know much about the all different amp models and market values so I'm trying to not make bad decision.

What's this supposed to be? A recommendation? Any reasons? If you really want to post, post something useful and meaningful, not just the name of a headphone...

The SRM-3 is a pretty odd duck, it's the portable SRM-Xh PCB but with a "real" PSU on an extra board and uprated parts in the amp section (higher rails and more power with a larger heatsink). I for one quite like my upgraded SRM-Xh...

I would just like to point out that the Stax mafia is no myth -- a thread entitled, "Last dynamic Headphone" has pretty much deteriorated into all Stax talk.

You know, just in case the irony was lost on any o' youse.

Carry on.

I was considering posting a Stax joke when the thread first started, but knew it would end up like this anyways.

All your dynamic threads belong to us!!!

The thing is, this thread and a couple of others got me too thinking of soon turning to Stax, whenever the KGSSHV boards become available. And another guy here in Portugal, whom I built an M3 already got his pair of stax, and just told me he's considering a pair of 007's!

You guys are big trouble!

Hey MASantos, just wanna let you know that the Opus DAC kit you passed on to me last year is alive and kicking. It's now serving beautiful music to my 404s!
