Muamp#2 electrostatic ear speaker



This was my second headphone. I do not make copies of this one anymore, since Muamp#3 is so much better, but the information on Muamp#2 leads on to the Muamp#3 design.


Designed, hand made, constructed and tested by Muamp.

Headphone1

This headphone surround is made from Afromosa hardwood. It also has a single strand headband with a omni-direction swivel to the surround giving 360° swivel movement and rotation plus up/down travel of 30mm.

Headphone2

Connected to a Stax SRM-252s solid state energiser.

Headphone3

These are also large over ear headphones. As with Muamp#1, the ear cups are made of fleece material which provides a warm comfortable contact around the ear. Being fleece, sweat build up is not a problem as with leather/synthetic-leather ear cups and provides a breathable headphone with full bass performance.

Headphone4

The head band cushion is fleece lined, colour matched to the ear cushions.

Headphone5

Open back design with large holes in the surround.

Headphone6
Headphone7

Muamp#2 plug is a Stax compatible colour coordinated barrel with Afromosa top and base.

Headphone8

Even though the stators in Muamp#2 are PCB fabricated, they are designed to the same specificaton as Muamp#1 stators, and all the panel dimensions are identical to Muamp#1.
