Those are the AKG-K1000s. You can adjust the angle of the earspeakers to yours ears to suit your taste.

Here's my modified Stax stand...inspired by Snake, a few months ago.

Hey there, the papertowel holder is made by a company called "Umbra", model name Palla, and yes, it's quite sturdy and hefty. It was $20 at a local hardware store. Weird thing is, I can't seem to find this model on the umbra site (http://www.umbra.com). I wonder if it's discontinued? Could be...

This is also a nice one....

Yeah, I was just going to post that one. Looks very nice...if it's anything like mine then it's got a pretty substantial base, and is built like a tank.

NKT, the MSP's' wood color looks reddish now!

Haha...yeah. I noticed that if you look at the MSP's from different angles, the intensity of the red changes. Like in that pic, the earpiece on the left looks decidedly more yellow than the one on the right simply because of the viewing angle. Interesting no?

This looks like it could be good. It'd be perfect for me as I have shelves right above my desk.

I'd post the pic instead of the link, but I don't know how, and I'm way too lazy to figure out how right now.

Was at Walmart tonight walking through the kitchen supply aisles and thought about the humble banana hanger headphone stand. This cost about $5 and took all of 10 minutes to put together. The red plastic covered metal hangers were over in the hardware area. I like the way the forked hook on the top holds the phones steady and prevents them from swinging, and the longer hanger on the bottom is great for the coiled cable. After getting everything home, I considered I could have picked up two forked hangers instead of one and twisted them into the left and right side of the hanger to hold two pairs of headphones.

Note that you must pre-drill holes to *almost* the diameter of the screw threads on the end of the red hangers or you will split the wood. For the bottom (straight) hanger, it's actually impossible to screw it in as the elbow hits the stand as you twist it, so you must drill a tight-fitting hole and slide it in. Using some glue ensures a permanent assembly.

Have fun.

Here's my setup. I just went down to the local wig shop & picked these up. They have really secure suction cup bottoms. Works out pretty good, but they were kinda boring so I went with the bandana treatment.

Peace,

Graz

NICE Work, that looks like it works great!

I still have the stand but don't have any worth while headphone to hand them on since I'm heading more towards the IEM direction.

Zuerst: where did you get the foam?

It came as part of the packaging for a watch that I got. I cut out a part of that foam and shaped it with a pair of siccor and sand paper.

BTW how do you like your Sensa compared to the CD3000?
