Spritzer - did you buy your 4070's new or used? I'm pretty set on getting a pair from a US dealer, but was wondering how long it takes for Stax to make them since they are built to order as far as I'm aware.
That's an option I'm definitely looking at if I go the way of 4070, though I'd have to con, I mean convince, my friend to do the upgrades for me.
Keep us posted on how you like, or not like, the 4070's.
Yeah, used is perfectly fine. I'm hoping to find something with preamp function and remote so that I can use that (preamp function & remote) with speaker setup - I'm too lazy to get up to change the volume.
I know that Audio Aero Prima SE and Opus 21 have it, but are there any others? Few others I've seen has been well over my budget. I can spend up to $3000, though less is always preferred.
So I've sent an e-mail couple of days ago to the maker of Illusion ESC-1001 (from the report, a very nice transformer box for Stax), but no response yet. Continuing with that theme, A'Gon seller for ECD1 hasn't responded for few days either. Dman them all.
