Multilayer fixed electrode MLER (Multi-Layer-Elect-Rords) established with SR-009 has evolved to MLER 2. The finish and etching process that smoothes the edge of the electrode opening reduces air resistance and further improves sound permeability. Also, the electrodes themselves are gold plated with high specific gravity to minimize the resonance of the ultra-thin electrode. At the same time, due to the effect of reducing the electric resistance of the electrode itself by gold plating, we have opened up a new ground for high speed, clarity, silky details, and powerful texture.

For those that love listening to their music in the comfort of their own home then the Stax range of electrostatic headphones, or earspeakers as they are known, will make a lot of sense. These high end audio earspeakers need an energiser unit to drive them meaning they wouldn’t be your choice if portability is high up on your feature list. Where the Stax earspeakers excel is with the clarity of sound that they’re able to produce. Stax are at the top of the headphone market in terms of the sound that is possible from headphones.

One of the first things that will strike you about the Stax earspeakers is their openness and musicality. This is the difference between dynamic and electrostatic headphones. The reasons for this are that the electrostatic drivers are much larger than dynamic drivers and due to the technology, are quicker to respond. What this actually means is that you’ll be treated to a very musical audio experience with high levels of acoustic detail.

SR-009S adopts a diaphragm made of ultra-thin super engineering plastic film. The light mass has realized a high transient characteristic throughout the entire audio spectrum.

The main body was redesigned to further reduce resonance as to provide a consistent sound.

Aluminium is a metal good for sound and suitable material for audio equipment. It is abundantly used, e.g. at the frame supporting the appearance and sound element, to realize high-quality sound, rigidity and lightweight. Almost every part of the SR-009 is manufactured through precise machine processing.

The high-purity copper developed from the necessity of wiring large-scale integration circuits is also known as high-quality audio cables. High-purity copper wire of 99.9999% (6Nines) purity adopted for the cable is further silver-coated and finished with the most suitable structure to drive the earspeaker.

The earpad of a new design is carefully made by a craftsman’s hand and features both the real leather with good humidity environment and the cushion material with moderate elasticity.

The new earpad enables hours of comfortable listening to music.

The arc headband is equipped with a position adjustment mechanism of 10-step slider and corresponds to the wide range of cranial form with individual difference.
