Brand: Stax
The Stax SR-303 is a classic high-end headphone model manufactured by the Japanese audiophile brand Stax. First introduced in the 1980s, it features a unique electrostatic (also known as planar-magnetic) driver technology that delivers a remarkably detailed and transparent sound signature. The SR-303 has a delicate and refined tonality, with exceptional clarity, dynamics, and spatial resolution. Its large but lightweight ear cups and comfortable headband make it suitable for extended listening sessions. The SR-303 is widely regarded as a reference standard for electrostatic headphone performance, and continues to be highly sought-after by audiophiles and music enthusiasts around the world. However, due to its premium price point, it is considered a high-end luxury product that caters to a niche market.
