Meze Elite & STAX SR-X9000 by AudioKeyReviews

STAX SR-X9000 and Meze Elite flagship headphones

We're excited to share two outstanding reviews from K.E. Heartsong over at AudioKeyREVIEWS! Magazine, who had a chance to spend some time with both the X9000 and Meze Elite. Of STAX's new electrostatic headphone he says;

”The STAX SR-X9000 sits on a quantum shelf above all of its related and near-related brethren—headphones. It is both extraordinary and compelling”

A sentiment we certianly share here as well, and of the Meze Elite he says;

”Its transparency would lay bare microdynamic and spatial cues, air and ambiance, while finely parsing instrumental timbres and textures, together with a natural tonality that I had not believed possible of planar headphones.”

Be sure to stop by their website and enjoy their second January Issue, which has these two outstanding reviews and also an exclusive interview with Antonio Meze of Meze Audio!
