STAX SRM-D10 II

STAX SRM-D10 II 

The SRM-D10 II has now been significantly upgraded and is equipped with an AKM4493 decoder chip instead of the old ESS. 384kHz/32bit instead of 192kHz/24bit.

The available inputs on the SRM-D10 II are an AUX input or a digital input via USB-C.

The D10 II is equipped with a battery, so you can listen to STAX PRO headphones on the go. The D10 II is also equipped with USB-C power supply, so you can easily charge it with a USB charger or USB-C power bank, so you always have power.

The SRM-D10 II is the result of STAX's commitment to pushing the boundaries of audio technology. It features groundbreaking features, carefully designed components, and an elegant design to give audiophiles and professionals an unparalleled listening experience.

"As we continue to celebrate STAX's 85th anniversary, it is a timely reminder of how far the brand has come in its pursuit of audio perfection. The SRM-D10 II features an upgraded decoder chip from its predecessor, the AKM4493, for improved audio processing and enhanced audio performance," said Douglas Ip, Sales and Marketing Manager at STAX International.

"This release demonstrates our dedication to improving STAX's portability as well, so that STAX listeners have the option to take their in-ears or earspeakers with them with a quality portable amplifier. Ideally, this new iteration of the STAX portable amplifier will become part of their audiophile toolkit."
