Industry News, Rumors, & New Releases 🤐

Slightly OT, I find Joe’s ad videos kinda annoying. I get they are a company but mentioning something you don’t sell is just damn fine, and reqing a dac you haven’t even heard an engr sample of is not. I’m interested what the dac will be but everyone is capable of fucking up a product so don’t req until its been heard

$6500 retail, supposedly step up from 009s

very very curious what these will end up like tbh. I dont know much about stax as a brand but the 009 on BHSE were pretty mind blowing with only 2 deal breakers for me (timbre and impact). Seeing as other estats have seemed to have fix one or the other in the past im very exicted to see what these manage to do.

im very curious to try both the 009 and a top tier energizer such as the bhse. so sometimes im jealous of you as well!

Lol. My local store doesn’t have much can wise but they have like every grado and stax can ever made luckily enough. Amp selection is also pretty solid tbh (very eclectic, but solid)

Ps2ke wasn’t horrid on the right amp but I wasn’t exactly blown away either and that was the best I’ve tried by a massive margin

Deezer is also a good option for lossless.

@Gothique Thanksl, I am aware of them, but haven’t tried yet. Currently sampling Qobuz,
but I really miss the comprehensive classical catalogue Primephonic had.

Yo let’s go! Very interested in seeing what they have, hopefully it is competitive with the other flagships.

All three already exist. I was under the impression plat was the same ad gold though tbh

Ah. I only thought it was regular and Titanium, so thought maybe new variants were coming.

platinum was a special edition like the TI was but I thought ti was the same internals as normal. There is one for sale here
