Description

SRM-007tII

The new SRM-007tII is a vacuum-tube electrostatic headphone amplifier driver unit intended exclusively for STAX Earspeakers, which are characterized by their wide, high dynamic range and outstanding operating features.

The ultra-light polymer film diaphragm of electrostatic headphones, only a few microns thick, realizes unprecedented response and a high degree of resolution. Since it is driven on all sides, there is almost no partitioned vibration and there is no phase distortion. Nor is there any imbalance in the sound quality of the unit, or distortion caused by the network. Electromagnetic distortion also does not occur.

SRM-007tII opens up the world of high sound quality that is the mark of headphone listening, a world characterised by the absence of need for large output, the high degree of freedom permitted by the use of high sound quality elements for use with small signals, and the even balance between left and right unaffected by acoustic conditions in the listening room.

Newly improved circuitry raises the frequency response from 70kHz to 100kHz to accommodate audio formats such as SACD and DVD-A.

The electrostatic transducer is driven by electrodes set on both sides of the diaphragm which carry the push-pull signals. This is thus virtually the only replay system that enables the listener to enjoy replay unique to balance transmission without the need to pass through a transformer or inversion amplifier.

Adopting rectifier circuits combining low-noise, low-loss Schottky barrier diodes and large electrolytic capacitors, plus a low-ripple DC power source improves the Signal-to-Noise ratio.

A simple two-stage amplifier configuration using high-voltage dual triode tube 6FQ7(6CG7) delivers straightforward properties that are transparent and clear.

Hand-picked low noise FET, and six acoustic high sound quality relays are used. Simultaneous switching system adopted from SRM-T2, input source is isolated of direct current and there is no interference between different devices.

Brand

STAX

Founded in 1938, STAX brought the world's first electrostatic headphone to market in 1960. Today they continue their long tradition by offering the finest audio products for both professional and audiophile applications.

All STAX headphones are referred to as "earspeakers" - the company states that such ultra-high fidelity devices can only be compared with the best cost-no-object loudspeakers, not other headphones. Their unique amplifiers, earspeakers and drivers are highly sought-after products, and extremely well considered by aficionados in the audio industry.

Unilet Sound & Vision are one of the oldest STAX dealers in the UK, and one of the very few official outlets stocking their products. Do get in touch with us if you would like to audition the range, or need advice or assistance with choosing the right system for your needs.
