This system is designed for audiophiles who seek a unique sound presentation leveraging the electrostatic technology. The SR-307 earspeakers utilize a thin conductive diaphragm situated between two charged plates, generating sound with remarkable accuracy and detail that distinguishes it from traditional dynamic or planar magnetic headphones. The lightweight molded plastic housing is complemented by high-quality synthetic leather earpads, ensuring comfort during extended listening sessions. The driver unit, SRM-323S, functions as an amplifier specifically tailored to power the Lambda series and syncs effortlessly with the SR-307.

Made with a stylish brushed aluminum front plate and textured paint, the SRM-323S is as visually appealing as it is functional.
