Hey everyone, got a like New 300 ohm HD 540 Reference today. Earpads seem a little stiff. Maybe they need to break in. It is my second working HD 540.

At Work

I am trying to find a small amp to drive my vintage mostly orthodynamic headphones but also some vintage AKG (600 Ohm). Up until now i used to connect them trough an adapter to the speaker outputs of a full size 70ies technics amplifier. Since i don't have the space for a full size amp for the...

Found this at the flea market this morning. Does anyone have some matching sliders for the headband to spare? I am also looking for good replacements for the ear cushions. Any advise?

It is 38 mm in diameter and 9 mm thick.

The hole pattern looks like SFI? I do't think i'll invest time in trying to mod this headphone. Some of the plastic is cracked and they are really uncomfortable to wear. I will maybe try to transplant the drivers but keep the rest to be able to put them back together.

I found this UNITRONIC DH-305 at a local flea market last Sunday. I wasn't able to find any info online. Left channel wasn't working at first but it came to life after i turned up the volume. Build quality is really bad.

they seem to have a little less bass, not as detailed mids and slightly harsh hights compared to my akg k140 and mid production sextetts. i hope some earpads and foam will improve not only the fit :).

her´s a picture of the czechoslovakian grill. i think i can see a ca. 7cm diameter paper dome driver:     and here you see the the rivets, the reason i don't want to open the cups:     the grundigs are easy to open. the soft plastic enclosure that holds the dust cover just pops off:  

i made this little adapter with leftovers:    

hello, i found 2 vintage headphones lately.   one is a chechoslovakian made one from the 70s. it looks just like any other cheap paper cone headphone from the 70s, but its back is vented and baffle and cups are entirely made from metal. the ear cushions are really soft and chunky. its...

found it in this 1978 catalog: http://www.saba.pytalhost.com/1978/0045.jpg its a infrared tv headset used with a transmitter mounted into saba tvs. i'll probably use it for spares because i don't have such a tv.

so i found this headphones at the flea market today and since i couldnt find any info online i was wondering if anyone does know anything about them. i bought them becouse they have the same earpads as the akg k140 and they where in good shape. also the headband looks similar to the one the...

i'm in. k4, k60, k160, k140, k240 lp sextett, k240 mp sextett, philips n6330 lp sextett, philips n6330 mp sextett and 2 modded k240 monitors. just starting to refoam and recable them.

hello everyone, i just wanted clarification on this topic. i`m currentli using a vivanco speaker switcher to drive my akg headphones, since it has two headphone jacks and i have it sitting on my desk. the possibility to connect two headphone is cool, but i would like to use the 3 pairs of...
