Yes, probably the best I've heard of that type headphone. Also, yes, Stax electrostatic HP require a specific amp to drive them. And, yes they can be quite expensive. Right now I've opted to go cheap on the HP front and use Audio Technica ATH-AD700 Headphones which are quite nice, easy to drive, have an expansive sense of space and can be had on Amazon for $76, shipped. They however are not as deetailed and transparent as electrostatics. If I remember correctly, I like them better than the Stax electret. HP's have come a ways since the SR-80's were current. It is fun to listen to all sorts of vintage equipment, each component usually has its charms. Enjoy!Bill
