I've been collecting Audio Technica woodies and leather headphones for a while. Now I own W1000, W2002, L3000 and L5000.

I would like to demonstrate them in a display cabin. What makes me headache is the choice of the headphone stand.

Most of the Audio technica headphone have 2 small wings and 2 earpad which will touch the headphone. If I hang them on the headphone stand like this, the earpads and wings will directly contact with the headphone stand and the stand seems to have a constant pressure on the wings and earpads, which could leads the earpads out of sharp after a period of time.

Although this seems to be a problem for me, but it looks like Audio technica didn't quite care about this, they have released a similar headphone stand HP-APS700 like this:

The ATH-AWKT does not have two 'wings' compared with previous model and seems fit the stand pretty well. But I suspect if it fits the previous model.

The previous two Audio Technica headphone stand seems fits the old woodies better, but they are not in manufacture for a while and hard to obtain.

Is there any other headphone stand you recommend for audio technica headphones?

BTW: It seems the earpad will become out of shape even store in the original box...

I hate all those stands for woodies. They are good for other non-wood types.

All my stands are from Etsy. It's pricey.

This looks very decent. The only problem is, without the acrylic board splitting the two earpads, they will in contact with each other and end up with out of shape. Have you experienced this problem before?

Nope. Everything is all good.
Those are yaxi earpads.

Here's a random headphone I found in the attic next to the beautiful woodie.
