Stax electrostatic headphones are well known for their reproduction quality. This pair of SR-5 is in great condition – the cables have picked up some character over the years, but there are no worn areas or loose connections. They sound incredible, and the SRD-6 amplifier is in spec. Of course, we've cleaned them thoroughly. With the open-air design, you can still hear your name being called, but that can be our little secret.

- Liner Notes
The Stax SR-5 is an excellent earspeaker. While it has a definite family resemblance to the Lambda Pros both visually and sonically, the SR-5 is more like a comfortable, but far less efficient SR-30. The SR-5 doesn’t have a bright zone, and does an excellent job on the lower midrange, giving music adequate weight without sounding thick or slow.
- Packing
- Prepare to be impressed. We have arguably the best packing process around. This piece will ship double-boxed, and fully insulated, taking extra care to ensure there's no pressure against the face. First, the component is first wrapped in 8mil plastic. Then, the unit is strapped to a plate inside an inner box to prevent shifting, and padded on all sides. We then suspend the inner box inside a double-walled outer box using shock-resistant foam corners.
- Shipping
- This piece ships to the contiguous United States for a flat rate of $50, which includes our packaging and our insurance. Of course, we'll ship anywhere in the world, just drop us a line and we'll give you an estimate – even if you're just curious.
