Stax Headphones, the iconic Electrostatic headphone manufacturer, has come out with a new version of their SR-L700s...otherwise known as 'the Cyberman' headphone here at Carlton Audio...
These Headphones, or Earphones as Stax calls them, create vibrations and sound through a thin metallic membrane which accepts a dose of quite high voltage in order that it vibrates at frequencies corresponding to the music.
This technology produces impeccable imaging and a fastness and clarity to the music.
A true Audiophile classic with a cult like following...'Man will be reborn as Cyberman'...after listening to Stax...

Stax SR-L700 Mk2...iconic Japanese made Electrostatic, Cyberman-look Headphone
The first SR-Lambda series was introduced 36 years ago and it has further developed into a new-generation SR-Lambda with its newly designed enclosure - the new SR-L700 advanced-Lambda series Earspeaker.
The SR-009 hand selected thin-film diaphragm as well as fixed electrodes machined through three-layer stainless etching using heat diffusion has been employed for the SR-L700 sound element. Thus, rich deep bass response, delicate high frequency and soothing mid-range has been achieved in a balanced sound.
The headband (ARC) assembly of the SR-L700 is equipped with 10-click slider mechanism for head pad height adjustment adopted from SR-009. Once adjusted, the slider always maintains its optimal position to make readjustment unnecessary. This enables you to enjoy hours of pleasant music listening with utmost comfort.
6NCu high purity 99.99999% copper wires are employed for the core wires, and six silver plated high purity 99.9999% copper wires are arranged for the perimeter. The whole cable uses the conventional wide format parallel structure to lower the capacitance between each wires and finished with the most suitable structure to drive the earspeaker.
New earpad design is carefully hand crafted with genuine lamb leather for utmost comfort for hours of music enjoyment as well as sound performance.
