In Reply to: How Competitive Are The Stax Lambda Pro With SRM-1 MK2 Amp? posted by Mister Pig on October 22, 2020 at 07:36:50:
I have used a pair of SR-202 (Lambda-style) Basic with an SRM-1/MK2 energizer (along with a couple of vintage SR-5 and SRX-III), and nothing else I have tried even comes close. Granted, I haven't tried the higher end models, but I am not going to spend a few thousand dollars for them either.
I know that it isn't a fair comparison, but I bought and quickly sold a pair of Hifiman HE-400 planars and a Rega Ear amp because they weren't even a shadow of the Stax system. Being planars, I thought they might be close. I have a few other pairs of dynamic phones, but only for portable or tape deck use.
I am not allowed to have a signature line.
