    Those are not from ESS labs. Those headphones are custom made in Hong Kong, just like the seller said they are

    It's a Stax omega inspired/recreated headphone. I'd say it's a good price for a used pair, if only because they rarely show up used so any discount isn't all that common. If you're interested I'd read these excellent posts which I think are spot on:

    posts:https://www.superbestaudiofriends.o...-to-the-stax-sr-omega.8880/page-2#post-383911

    https://www.superbestaudiofriends.o...headphones-measurements-and-discussion.10505/

    These are made buy a guy in Hong Kong who used to repair Stax headphones and started making his own under a company named ES Lab

    I did my best, I did not have the energy at the moment to do more research but wanted to give SBAF a chance to check them out. That's the point of this thread.
