No, no terminal from H1 through H4 should be grounded. Input ground. You are correct. The transformer should be grounded through the wall. None of the taps on the input side should be grounded. On the output side, only the X2 or X3 should be grounded. I have attached pic below to illustrate...

Those are 2 different XLs. One with 300b and one with 20b.

Yes, double sided tape or a sticker with adhesive on both sides. Just needs to be thin and adhesive. https://stax.stores.jp/items/5d7b4c18d0f25651d1c9a2b5

Adhesive tape

Happy to work with you again!

@genefruit $225 with the conversion rate of the time. Would be $185 with current conversion rate. Definitely a no brainer to opt in. It was through the store.

QUOTE="genefruit, post: 18117466, member: 522618"] Was that an offer by a specific vendor or by the manufacturer? details and links are most welcome. I don’t recall. I’ll have to check the paperwork when I get home. I bought that particular through e-earphone when I lived in Japan.

I paid around $300 to extend my warranty to 5 years for the X9K.

I don’t think the housings can afford to get any more cheaply built than what Hifiman currently uses.

I think they only sold 130-150 of them?

I’m trying to compile a list of all the current estat manufacturers. In recent years the amount of offers have gone up quite a bit. If anyone has a company to add please let me know. Bulgaria http://statex.pro China https://www.eslabhk.com/ http://www.hifiman.com Germany...

Look forward to doing business with Dr Soot again!

The L300 was removed from their lineup on the website too. Maybe an L300 mk2 or they could just let the SR-X1 fill that price category?

Silverstone EBA01 stand for sale. $78 which includes shipping and PayPal fees ($3).
