John -
Do you still use your Koss ESP-950 electrostatics? If so, how do they compare to your STAX?

No, the Koss ESP-950 headphones don't compare with STAX. However, I think the problem might have more to do with the Koss driver unit than the headphones themselves. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to listen to the Koss electrostatic headphones with the STAX driver unit because it requires an adapter that I don't have. The connector plugs are different. The Koss has a rectangular plug and the STAX has a round plug. I have a feeling the Koss electrostatic headphones might sound better using the STAX driver unit.
Best regards!

The acknowledged weak link is the Koss energizer. Adaptor cables are available, but the one I'm probably going to buy is $200. Pretty damn steep. As you probably know, everything electrostatic is very expensive. The Koss phones are suppose to do much better with a STAX amp.
I couldn't pass up the opportunity to try the ESP-950. We'll see how it goes. I'll report back here once I've had a chance to really compare them to my other two pairs of stats with my refurbished energizers.
