Hi-end elektrostatische stereo hoofdtelefoon stax sr-007 mk2. Gekocht bij een officiële dealer, alle documenten en garantiebewijs aanwezig (garantie is verlopen). Gebruikt op laag volume, voorzichtig
€800 is slightly under the €820 median and a touch above the €766 25th percentile, so this reads as fair-to-good value, not a bargain, but also not ambitious for this model. In a five-listing sample that tight, pricing right around the middle usually means the seller is in the market rather than fishing.
The worthwhile part is the Stax SR-007 MK2 itself: it’s a very respected electrostatic with superb resolution, fast transient response, and that unmistakably open, refined Stax presentation. At €800, the upside is mainly getting a top-tier flagship-tier listen at a sensible entry point, but because condition is unknown, I’d want clarity on pad wear, headband condition, and whether any bias- or channel-related issues have shown up before committing.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
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.
