The pinnacle of the Stax electrostatic headphone line is the SR-X9000 model with a fixed electrode “MLER-3”.<\/p>\n

The Stax SR-X9000 represents the next evolution of the MLER-2 through technological improvements.\u00a0According to Stax, \u201cThe pickling electrode and the metal mesh electrode are connected using a diffuse junction (thermocompression bonding).\u00a0After two generations of flagship STAX models, STAX production technology makes a significant contribution to the stable mass production of large round metal mesh electrodes.\u201d<\/p>\n

Stax claims that the introduction of the MLER-3 has resulted in \u201csound transparency that is smoother than conventional multi-layer fixed electrodes.\u00a0Vibration-resistant stiffness characteristics have also been improved.\u201d<\/p>\n

Frequency response of SR-X9000 is 5 Hz – 42,000 Hz, electrostatic capacitance is approx. 110 pF (including cable), impedance is 145 k\u03a9, SPL is 100 dB at 580 V DC bias. The SR-X9000 weighs 432 g without cable.<\/p>\n

The flagship model of the Japanese headphone manufacturer, the SR-X9000 has a 20% larger diaphragm area compared to the SR-009S.\u00a0The company says it also “delivers the widest sound field ever.”\u00a0The body has also been redesigned and made from aluminum to eliminate unnecessary vibrations.<\/p>\n

Comfort is also provided by the stainless steel bar, which is more resistant to twisting and more stable during installation.\u00a0Covered in genuine leather, it features a 9-step “click system” for perfect fit and comfort.<\/p>\n

The 1.5m and 2.5m Stax replaceable 6-core cables are made with 6NCu ultra-pure annealed copper wire.<\/p>\n

The packaging is a storage box made from “paulownia wood,” which Stax says “has low thermal conductivity and moisture management.”<\/p>\n
