Firstly, I should say that I am totally new to this site, so hello, and it is good to be here.
A couple of years ago I was working as a sound engineer on a theatre tour to Tokyo. Inevitably I took myself off to Akihabara to do some damage to my Amex. In one store I found a pair of the most fabulous headphones I have ever had the priviledge to get my head inside. I mean they were seriously good. Foolishly I just couldn't pluck up courage to buy the things. I wish to hell I had.
My trusty HD560 Ovations are now showing signs of senility, and I need to replace them, preferably with a pair of those long lost 'phones! Can anyone out there help me track them down?
Just to compound my foolishness I didnt make a note of the model number or manufacturer. However, they were highly distinctive. The ear cups were made out of wood (they looked like they had been turned from a single piece - oh God I'm drooling already), and the cable was the fabric-covered type; green I think. I am pretty sure the diaphragm was cellulose, or something oraganic at least.
Can anyone help me with this? I'd be most grateful.
Many thanks,
Clarkiebloke.
