The STAX SRM-400S is a semiconductor driver unit for STAX electrostatic earspeakers and the successor to the SRM-353X. It uses an all-stage FET DC amplification design with custom low-noise dual FETs in the first stage and is positioned as a middle-class model intended for users moving up from entry-level systems or pairing with advanced Lambda series headphones. It emphasizes high-resolution sound, dynamic low-range reproduction, and balanced tonal performance.
