The SRM-D10 11 is compact and quite portable. It is solid and heavy for its size. It must be magic that the engineers at STAX use to pack a small device with a battery, a high-quality DAC, and electronics that can produce enough voltage to drive any of the Pro versions of the STAX line of Earspeakers. The volume is full and loud at the 10 o’clock position on the dial. Turning the volume halfway was almost too loud. The quality of the audio produced by the DAC on this portable is detailed, warm, and lush. The soundstage and placement of instruments are wide and precise. If I was blindfolded and listened to this, I wouldn’t be able to tell you which unit it was. The run-time between charges is around 4.5 hours, I’ve been told, and you cannot use it while charging.
