Stax is in business. You can buy replacement earpads, which usually include the foam over the grid, from the North Amer distributors; just click on the manufactuers section under "learn" and follow the links. Just beware, I did it for a very old pair and the foam on the new pair deteriorated in just a few months.

I'll offer an unsolicited comment, so take it FWIW. I have an old pair of Stax SR-80 electret headphones which I liked a lot. The earpads deteriorated over time, and I decided to buy new headphones, soI bought the Sennheiser HD600's (which I recently sold and upgraded to the 650's). Just for fun, I recently replaced the earpads on the Stax 'phones and fired them up for the first time in about 10 years. Glad I didn't spend a lot of money fixing them, because I think my new Sennheiser HD650's are a much superior headphone in almost all respects. |
For a more comprehensive response to questions regarding cans you may also want to try HeadFi, although answers above are clearly to the point. They have a good list of links and resources there as well. Marco |
