oof, glad i didn't fall for the stax meme

they were equalized to the same target

How the fuck are they so good? Wtf I paid $8000 for a focal utopia, hd800 and hd600 and they sound like shit compared to stax.

in other words, stax's super low distortion doesnt matter in real world listening

95% of the posters in this thread don't use a PEQ

Welcome to da staxclub nigga

don’t post black men or sapphire might have an involuntary orgasm

cute pic of me

Where are her feet?

worse than the first version

Still better than Stax

Even Beats are better than Stax, lol.

Where did you find them at that price?
They have less bass than the original but better quality

True

there are audiophile pmps but they're expensive

YUCK!

That's the good stuff.

I feel bad for the anti stax trolls. But if I couldn't afford even the cheapest model I'd probably troll too.

I honestly have to get up and start jerking off to my stax as they sit on their stand after listening to them because theyre that good. I was surprised they get me to cum more than porn and some of my past GFs have. But when I stroke one of the cups or recall how masterfully they played back one of my favorite songs into my ear the erection gets drastically harder and I get within seconds to a minute from nutting. Got close to ruining my STAX once because my jizz shot by it but luckily it missed by an inch or two.

Tempted to get the L700, but I'm patient so I might just slowly save for the sr-009. The question I'll have on my mind when I get them is whether to sell my current STAX or use them as a psuedo flesh light for when I listen to the sr-009. I can only imagine the load I'll bust listening to the drastically superior 009s and at the same time also recalling the magic that my current STAX made me experience while my hardened cock is thrusting between its ear pads. The money would be nice, but they deserve to be loved the same way they loved me.

that's what stax condoms are for user, don't make the same mistake again!

>t. triggered stax incel

SHIP MY STAX ALREADY JAP

This is not a listening test. SR-009 is within the margin of error of the K701. Fuck off.

It is. And $4000 SR-009 was destroyed by $200 headphones. Stop looking for stupid excuses. Stax are objectively garbage and they sound like shit, it's a scientific fact.

It's not lmao. If you ever tried them you would know.

You can't argue with facts.

yes yess

keep your HD600, there's nothing better

how can one person be so based (poor)?

based stax, let’s see if snapheiser or nazidynamic will ever do something similar

Welp did a lot of listening today gotta get used to tuning them down my ears are in pain because I'm not used to something being so loud and distortion free so I have it absolutely ear bleeding loud it seems

where is your holiday spirit? merry staxmas to you too grumpy user

go away boomer

All of the anti-stax posts are just copy pasted responses, most people know better than to engage in the shit flinging in general. There's enough variation in the stax shill posts that it's pretty obvious it's one or two people desperate to defend their several thousand dollar investments online in every single thread.
Even the most delusional stax shills will admit that the company puts out subpar products that aren't worth purchasing when pressed, but they'll keep spamming regardless.

my average listening levels went down after stax because they are still detailed at lower treble volumes unlike dynamics

stax magic is incredible is it not

this is a cope

Yeah seems like thats the case

>stax owner gives realistic criticisms of stax
>stax owners are delusional and desperately defend stax
pick one and only one, user.

Person in post is delusional because he believes stax shills aren't spamming these threads to death. His criticism I have to take on his word.

I'd post more realistic criticism (protip: none of the "criticism" nostaxers post is true) but retards like will quote it out of context and act like stax are garbage.

Also Im probably gonna forsake my Current music collection rebuild the library and buy a SR-007Mk1 instead of recovering the drive right away.

Also lol no

This is the unbelievable part about it. You're so desperate to control the narrative about these products that you will by your own admission obfuscate and lie about stax... because some people online would hurt your feelings.

>also lol no
Did you feel real cool and hip when you typed that

I need a dac + preout unit hpg. I need one with preout/variable XLR out and fixed out for my headphone amp.

Looked at gustard a20h but it looks too overpriced and performs pretty bad for the price.

>obfuscate and lie
Not really. That's what nostaxers do and I'm not going to be a cuckold and give you ammo. Real discussion has to come from both sides and I'm willing to have it, but you aren't. Sorry bud. All the shit I post is true btw, I just don't really mention legitimate criticism and the nostaxers are content to not mention it either it seems.

stax srm-717

I have Grado SR225i's that I bought like 5-6 years ago. What do you guys think of them?

im a stax owner. I need a new dac

This. Even mid-fi headphones like HD600, K702 and DT880 are overpriced. Most people are just here to defend their expensive toys. I have a HD800 and a 100 dollar HD558 and the latter sounds better without EQ. I'm pretty burnt out on headphones at this point, nothing exciting has been released in years and I cannot afford to have a speaker setup at my apartment.

>Not really
Isn't going to cut it when half of the thread is the same 1-3 stax retards replying to stale bait over and over again. No one is going to bother spending ridiculous amounts of money on stax without already having made up their mind on the products and the only "real" discussion you're going to have is a fantastic little circlejerk between yourselves.

I used to follow a pretty dedicated audiophile blog, who spent tens of thousands, and he graduated to speakers. He downgraded his entire headphone collection to hd600 + O2+Odac.

sure did buckaroo :^)

Aren't you the little bitch crybaby who threatened to call the janny cause mean staxers were posting things you don't like? Fuck off you retarded concern troll, go to head fi and don't let the door hit you on the way out.

I don't even know who you're referencing, but seeing as you didn't address any of the issues that were brought up at all it's safe to say I struck a chord. Staxers are free to have their "discussion" or whatever but the constant spamming and responding to bait posts falling over yourselves to defend your sunk costs just makes the threads horrible to read

>buckaroo :^)
cringe as fuck

Sup /hpg/, are these lil sennheiser fuckers any good? They're half off on amazon and I just got an iPhone 7 as a work phone which has become my new spotify machine, so I figured I might as well get a new wireless set instead of fucking around with dongles.

so leave

>issues
You act like your autistic little concern troll is working when people have been consistently getting into stax and enjoying the shit out of them. Come up with a better troll tactic, dumbfuck.
I don't give a fuck if /hpg/ becomes a stax circlejerk, that's better than its current state with retards like you and sapphire constantly spreading outright lies about stax and dynamic headphones. Plus its fun to see your dumb ass seethe when people enjoy their headphones.

nah, stax sr-002 are better

>I have a HD800 and a 100 dollar HD558 and the latter sounds better without EQ
>I'm pretty burnt out on headphones at this point
leave already. people post their stax and speakers but they don't have this issue. people have tried hd800 and like stax better. you clearly aren't listening and you are blackpilled because of it so just leave already

I tried the SR-009, SR-007 and various Lambdas, I prefer the sound, comfort and convenience of the HD800.

Now this post lets me know I've REALLY struck a nerve, jesus fucking christ

clearly you don't since you just said you liked the 558 better, retard

Probably okay for your purposes.

>staxers are absolutely SEETHING at the thought of people not liking stax

I prefer both over STAX headphones. Are you retarded?
