The Stax SR-X1 Electrostatic Headphones bring classic electrostatic sound to a new generation, blending heritage design with modern innovation in an entry-level package. Inspired by Stax’s iconic SR-1 and SR-X models, they deliver pure, neutral audio for audiophiles seeking authenticity. Available at Len Wallis Audio, the Stax SR-X1 Electrostatic Headphones are ready for audition in our Lane Cove showroom.

Why Choose the Stax SR-X1 Electrostatic Headphones?

The Stax SR-X1 Electrostatic Headphones are dubbed “Earspeakers” by Stax, a nod to their electrostatic design. This technology delivers a speaker-like soundstage with exceptional clarity directly to your ears, setting them apart from traditional headphones.

Featuring a newly designed medium-sized circular sound element, they offer flat and neutral sound reproduction. Audiophile reviews note their “airy and detailed” presentation, perfect for classical and acoustic genres.

The sound element minimises seams for accurate, focused audio with a smooth response. With a frequency response of 7 Hz to 41 kHz, every note is captured with precision and purity.

Weighing just 234 g, they feature a revamped metal arc assembly for improved fit. Soft sheepskin earpads with memory foam ensure comfort during long listening sessions without fatigue.

Tired of cables adding noise to your audio? The SR-X1’s 2.5 m OFC cable uses a wide-format design, reducing capacitance by 10% for a cleaner signal transfer.

Electrostatic headphones require a dedicated energizer to unlock their full potential. This setup ensures their lightning-fast transients and open soundstage are fully experienced.
