UPS guy just dropped these off today
They look like brand new, still had all the plastic baggies for everything in the box, I think these are from around 1982. I've only listened to them for about a half hour but they sound really nice, soundstage and detail like no headphone I've ever heard. All the instruments in songs have seperation like your at the concert or in the same room with the instruments, its a really cool effect. I think they should work really well for positional sound in games.
They are an on ear headphone, so they are not as comfortable as full size cans, but not too bad really. I'm pretty excited about getting these and being able to have a taste of Stax sound for way under 100 bucks.
I'm using my old Onkyo TX1500 MKII to power the adapter box, but it only makes 17w /channel so I don't think I'm getting the full potential of these yet, but I'm going to be building an LM1875 gainclone amp dedicated to running these and see how that does.
