Description
Stax introduced the NEW SRM-D50 electrostatic energiser and DAC
Electrostatic energiser/DAC for Stax Electrostatic Earspeakers
ESS ES9018 DAC coupled with ‘TI OPA1642’ ultra-low distortion op-amp to achieve bit correct signal representation
XMOS USB interface supports DSD128 playback and PCM stream with up to 384KHz sample rate
This high-performance DAC can be connected to a MAC / PC or a variety of digital audio sources
Multiple digital inputs include USB, S/PDIF on RCA and Optical.
Analog input is via RCA Analog sources can also be connected
Amplifier circuitry based on discrete components – heritage from classical
STAX amplifier product A useful VU meter is cleverly housed in the front of the display
Standard STAX 5-Pin connector for all STAX headphones
Multiple input selection
The SRM-D50 features three digital inputs: USB, S/PDIF on RCA and Optical. Analog input is via RCA.
High-resolution playback
On the digital side, the SRM-D50 uses an XMOS USB interface support for DSD 5.6MHz signal playback and PCM audio with up to 384KHz sample rate.
High-End DAC
On the digital conversion side, Stax chose to use the ESS ES9018 DAC. Renowned for its superb sound quality, the ES9018 is then fed to a ‘TI OPA1642’ ultra-low distortion op-amp to ensure the delicate bitstream remains unaltered.
Traditional Stax amplifier circuit
The SRM-D50 features an original low-noise dual FET first stage connecting to an all-stage direct-coupled Class A DC amplifier, which features no coupling capacitors. This allows for the reproduction of the smallest nuances in the music. Improvements to the emitter follower at the output stage result in an extended dynamic range, natural tonality, and inner detail.
Carefully selected components have been chosen not just for their long life and reliability but equally for their tonal quality and unmatched performance.
Exquisitely built
The entire chassis is made from Aluminium reducing the effects of magnetic interference. The SRM-D50 features a one-piece wrap around the lid. This lid goes through several processes to achieve a smooth velvet feel. The Stax logo is engraved on the top of the lid.
The SRM-D50 is a new-generation electrostatic energiser
It allows multiple source selection, including a high-resolution USB audio interface, S/PDIF and optical connection. This is coupled with a traditional analogue connection. Overall the SRM-D50 is a combination of modern aesthetic design, high-quality digital signal processing and the values of traditional Stax craftsmanship.
