Stax SRD-6 Headphone Controller & Two Stax SR-5 Headphones Sets, Ex Cond

Description

Classic, awesome-sounding Stax stereo headphone system.
This is a piece of vintage high-end audiophile equipment from the 1970s-80s and c
omes with one Stax SRD-6 driver/control box and two SR-5 electrostatic headphone sets (you can use only one headphone set at a time, so one headphone set is a spare).
Everything is in excellent physical and, as far as I can ascertain, operating condition. One headphone set seems to have slightly higher volume than the other headphone set, but both have totally adequate volume and, to my ears, also have excellent sound reproduction. The left and right drivers of each headphone set sound equal in volume to each other. No tears in the headphone padding or top bands. Spring clips for the speakers all work fine.
You can find the manual for it online for free.
I have described everything to the best of my knowledge and ears. However, it is your responsibility to inspect the photos and read the description carefully so you know what you are buying and the terms of the sale, and ask any questions you may have before bidding.
Here are the original specs as published by Stax:
- Continuous Maximum Input: 8 Watts (1 kHz)
- Momentary Maximum Input: 30 Watts (1 kHz)
- Frequency Characteristics: 10Hz-30kHz +/- 2.0 dB
- Distortion Rates: Less than 0.2% at 100Hz/1W
Note: I cannot guarantee that this unit meets all of the specs published by Stax because I have no way to test this unit or measure its performance to verify it meets those specs. Also, remember that it may also not meet all of the original specs because it is about 50 years old, and, given its older technology and age, it may not sound like a modern set of headphones.
Because of its age and the potential it could be abused physically and/or electronically damaged by applying too much power, there is absolutely no warranty other than it will not be DOA and hence no returns or refunds unless it can be proven that it arrives DOA.
This auction includes only the items pictured in the photos. If it is not shown in the photos, it is not included.
Note that I have put hidden marks on each piece to identify them in order to stop scammers who buy equipment and then ask for a refund but send back their own defective equipment in place of the working equipment they originally received.
