STAX SR-X1
  • STAX SR-X1 Sale price€859,95 Regular price€1.023,95
  • The STAX SR-X1 is a lightweight, open-back electrostatic earphone with a design inspired by the classic SR-1 and SR-X. The round driver is designed for neutral reproduction, where voices and instruments stand out clearly.

    Thoughtful acoustics

    The driver is mounted directly in the cabinet with fewer joints. The curved openings on the back allow the sound to pass through and help reduce distortion.

    Comfort and detachable cable

    The metal frame provides stability, while the sheepskin and memory foam ear pads adapt to the head. The detachable cable makes maintenance easier.

    Major-Hifi Gold Award.

    "STAX production of electrostatic earspeakers has always been remarkably impressive and luxurious. The new release of their flagship SR-x9000 coming out soon has been supported by their excellent release of a budget friendly option. Audiophiles who haven't experienced electrostatic headphones should strongly consider adding this to their collection. If you're a fan of bright or 'v-shaped leaning towards bright' headphones and want a home listening headphone, I encourage you to get something like this. There are drawbacks, like the SR-X1's lightweight construction that verges on flimsy. Nevertheless, there are some really high quality components in this combination, which led me to give them the Major-Hifi Gold Award."

    Although the compact system is brilliant, it still comes down to the sound, and STAX did not disappoint. These diminutive headphones have a place in the flagship, full-size line of STAX earphones. Although they lack the full-bodied presence of the other earspeakers on the SR-X line, they can hold their own against the Lambda line as an affordable option, and I found them much easier to listen to for long sessions at my desk. If you want a headphone with a lightning-fast, neutral, and highly resolving ability to show you the nuances of your music, the STAX SRS-X1000 system should be on your shortlist."

    The soundstage the Stax can generate is extremely wide, lavishly spacious and absolutely controlled – even in a dense or busy mix, each element of a recording can easily be individualised. There's elbow room for everyone, but this is not at the expense of integration or unity. Each and every recording is presented as a singularity rather than as an assembly of discrete occurrences. - T3
