“We are proud to be celebrating our 85th year anniversary this year. As a company, we are most proud of the very high standards of listening that Stax represents. The company’s commitment to perfection and its pursuit of advancing our work through advanced technology has been truly down to the Japanese culture and its deep sense of responsibility, respect, and authenticity. The feeling of bringing something to life with emotion and hard work is the fundamental principle that underpins Stax, the brand. We will continue to create products that bring pleasure to our listeners and look very much forward to another 85 years,” said Douglas Ip, Head of Sales & Marketing, STAX International.

To commemorate this landmark occasion, STAX has released an 85^th anniversary STAX bundle featuring the SR-003MKII +SRM-D10 available through all distributors and resellers, as well as directly via www.staxheadphones.com. And for a limited period, this special bundle will come with an exclusive STAX jumper and an 85^th anniversary pin, while stocks last.

Why did STAX choose these products to highlight the occasion? “In Japan, young audiophiles begin their STAX journey with the simplest of products, but more importantly, this bundle still allows consumers to experience the STAX sound while being on the go. STAX was not designed for that purpose but through the years and in today’s context, it is the perfect combination of a portable electrostatic system and we’d like and encourage more youth to experience the uniqueness and bliss of an electrostatic audio system,” said Audrey Anne Felix, Marketing Director, STAX International.
