Offered is „SRM 700S Kopfhörerverstärker - optional im SET mit STAX SR-009S Silver Kopfhörer“ by STAX as new device from the category „Headphone Amplifier“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 7507884322 ends on 15.11.2026 at 16:46 o'clock.
New at €2,995, this sits just under the €2,997 25th percentile for recent EU asks, so it reads as a genuinely strong buy rather than merely fair. Against a €3,562 median and €4,480 upper quartile, the price is attractive enough to move quickly if the listing is clean.
That’s especially true because this model is admired for its airy, highly resolving presentation, fast transients, and top-tier electrostatic detail. At this level, the main upside is getting reference-class performance at a near-bottom-quartile ask; if it’s complete, well cared for, and includes the right energizer/cable situation, it’s a very compelling entry into Stax territory.

Stax traces its origins to 1938 in Tokyo, Japan, when Naotake Hayashi founded Showa Kouon Co., Ltd. in Chiyoda-ku. Initially focused on wax disc recording, metal master production, and audio equipment for film soundtracks, the company evolved through the postwar era. In 1950, it launched its first high-frequency condenser microphone, adopted by NHK, and renamed itself STAX Co., Ltd. in 1963, honoring its pioneering Stax-1 mic. A brief suspension in 1995 due to economic pressures gave way to revival, preserving its legacy under family leadership.
The brand specializes in electrostatic headphones, known as "EARSPEAKERS," debuting with the world-first SR-1 in 1960. This innovation spawned enduring lines like the SR series, produced for decades with incremental refinements for superior resolution and staging. Stax complements these with dedicated electrostatic amplifiers and select accessories, eschewing conventional speakers, turntables, DACs, or cables to hone its transducer expertise.
Stax commands a niche high-end position among audiophiles and professionals, revered for unmatched transparency and fidelity that rivals cost-no-object loudspeakers. Its 85-year heritage cements it as a boutique icon in electrostatic technology, far from mass-market fare, appealing to discerning buyers seeking pinnacle sonic transduction.
