I still like the style & form factor of the 1970s - 90s Stax electrostatic headphone 'driver units' (and power amps)....

That's going to be expensive isn't it ?

Yup, over 550,000 Yen, I recall spotting somewhere.

I occasionally kick myself for passing up the Stax 007 phones and matching amp that I had on long term loan. Stax amps haven't always had top marks with the head phone community, most recommending dumping the amp and going with one of the boutique amps like Woo or Blue Hawai. All a lot more than I can justify these days.

I've got an early pair of Lambdas with an SRD7, and they are a nice phone but have a few operational quirks which mean I don't have them set up often. I'm saving them for when I end up in a little room in a rest home where they will be all the system I have room for. They are a nice thing to have, sadly the new ones are far beyond what i'm willing to spend these days.
