Stax SR-L500 MK2
The MK2 models have adopted the cable-exchangeable structure as well as the case holder made from aluminum aiming at user-friendliness and wearing comfort when listening to music.
Exchangeable cable structure
The exchangeable cable structure of recent trend for high-quality headphone has been employed. This enables the prospective correspondence to a high-definition cable, and the easy maintenance to sudden disconnection, thus improving the user-friendliness of earspeaker.
To the SR-L500MK2 the parallel 6-strand low-capacity HiFC* wide cable is supplied as an accessory. This copper conductor with very small quantity of titanium added features not only superior transmission characteristic, but also excels in softening effect for easy handling.
Case holder made from aluminum
The change of material has enabled the mechanism design with more high flexibility. In the MK2 models, changing the case holder design from conventional linear style into moderate curve form produces the effect that ear pads fit more naturally on both-sides-of-the-head part. Moreover, the curve form gives high rigidity and prevents from generating unnecessary distortion or twist at the time of wearing, resulting in the great improvement of fit feeling. In an open-air type earspeaker, the degree rise of adhesion at the time of wearing greatly contributes to the improvement of low-frequency reproduction.
Stax SRM-500T
Stax introduces a new model SRM-500T to replace its successor of SRM-006tS. The SRM-500T utilizes a pair of 6FQ7/6CG7 vacuum tubes as the output, driven by custom-made low noise dual FET. Stax pride itself in offering a great value electrostatic driver at the best possible performance.
The newly designed power transformer enables power efficiency. As a result, it achieves an improved sound quality than the conventional vacuum tube output driver unit found in SRM-006tS.
We have a comprehensive selection of Stax devices available for demonstration in our HiFi and headphone studios in Berlin-Kreuzberg. We look forward to your visit!
