Description

STAX SR-009S (new flagship)

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.

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.

ENCLOSURE:
Aluminum 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.

CABLE:
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.

EARPAD:
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.

ARC (head band):
The arc is equipped with a position adjustment mechanism of 10-step slider and corresponds to the wide range of cranial form with individual difference.

Why Choose Stax

STAX is one of the most respected and historic names in personal audio, renowned worldwide for its electrostatic headphone technology and uncompromising approach to sonic purity. Manufactured in Japan, STAX products are designed for listeners seeking an exceptionally open, detailed, and transparent presentation that conventional headphone designs often struggle to achieve.

For many enthusiasts, hearing a properly matched STAX system for the first time is a genuinely memorable experience. The speed, delicacy, and effortless clarity of electrostatic headphones create a presentation that feels incredibly immediate and lifelike, revealing fine detail and subtle textures with remarkable ease. Vocals, strings, piano, and acoustic recordings in particular benefit from the spaciousness and realism that STAX systems are capable of delivering.

At HeyNow Hi-Fi, STAX appeals to customers who want to move beyond traditional headphone listening and experience something genuinely unique within high-end personal audio. While electrostatic systems require dedicated energisers and careful system matching, the reward is a level of refinement and transparency that continues to make STAX one of the true reference brands in the headphone world.

Signature Design and Sound

STAX products are built around the company’s long-standing electrostatic driver technology, which uses an ultra-light diaphragm suspended between electrically charged plates to achieve extraordinary speed and precision. This design allows STAX headphones to respond to musical signals with exceptional accuracy and minimal distortion.

Sonically, STAX systems are renowned for their openness, air, and micro-detail retrieval. The presentation feels highly spacious and unconstrained, with outstanding separation and a remarkable ability to reveal subtle nuances within recordings. Unlike some conventional dynamic or planar headphones, STAX products often create a sense of effortlessness and transparency that feels closer to listening to high-end loudspeakers in a well-treated room.

Importantly, despite their extraordinary detail retrieval, STAX systems avoid sounding aggressive or overly sharp when correctly partnered, instead delivering a refined and highly natural presentation that encourages deep listening sessions.

Stax Product Range

The STAX range includes electrostatic headphones, dedicated driver units (energisers), and complete headphone systems designed for both enthusiast and reference-level listening. Models including the SR-L700 MKII, SR-007, and flagship SR-X9000 have become highly regarded amongst serious headphone enthusiasts seeking the highest levels of resolution and realism.

STAX driver units and energisers are carefully matched to their headphones, allowing customers to build complete systems tailored to different performance levels and listening preferences. Whether entering the world of electrostatic headphones for the first time or pursuing a true reference personal audio system, STAX remains one of the most iconic and technically unique brands in high-end headphone listening.
