Screw the Planars...

76.150.50.249

I just got another pair of stats, the Koss ESP-950, instead of a pair of planars. This doesn't help me in any way with my problem of having my energizers serviced, but I couldn't pass up the deal I found. I've wanted to try the Koss since I discovered STAX, but $1000 (US) is obscene for what you get. $500, which is what I was offered, is far more reasonable. I have to purchase an adaptor for STAX energizers: The consensus is the Koss energizer is quite poor. The adaptor isn't cheap but a necessity.

Actually, I'd rather listen to my FiiO FT5 planar headphones than my Koss Electrostatics. Of course, I don't have the adapter needed to use them with the STAX driver unit. Perhaps they'll sound better with the STAX driver unit.

Happy listening!
