The asking price of the stand is is $99.95 plus $15.00 for USPS Priority shipping. What you guys think?!?!

 

[TKSingh]

a little pricey for me... though I would like one... but a bit more elegant and uhhh substantial for $100. (I actually prefer this one pictured rather than the ones linked)

Good luck with it though

Honestly this stand is not even pretty, it looks like a medieval torture device,

with less that the cost of the shipping I got a banana hanger, and my CD3000 is very proud hanging there, at least no complains were made for him....

Wanna see something cool????

This one has popped up before. Love to have one. Last thing I heard no one could find the manufacturer or they didn't make them anymore. I admit... it is cooler.

I tried to find out with a friend in Germany (it was gotten on a German store) and nothing, it was sold out, and long time ago, they are not making this kind anymore...that's the sad true

 

[Uncledan]

It looks cool, how much is this?

 

[nanahachi]

this was discussed at length in the Cables forum, i think the thread was entitled "Headphone Stand"

that upside-down U shaped stand is not available whatsoever. Jan Meier has looked into it, as has headfier Akira.

it really is sad. maybe DIYers like Andrew can mimic it.

anyway, this all belongs in the Cables forum...

uh oh, ive become the OT police...but wheres my billy club!?!

 

[LobsterSan]

what are those interesting looking headphones in the first pic? they look like a DIY effort, built using a belt for the headband

 

[Sovkiller]

They are the Seenheiser HD1000 Charleston (I think some kind of commemorative edition???)

And if you look closer in the second pic also, they are not the actual HD600, they are the HD580 Jubilee, that later on become IIRC the HD600...

 

[archosman]

We need to find some resorceful German HiFi-er who can walk the streets looking for this!

I discussed at length with Bruce the possibility of making the stand you're discussing. The issue wasn't could we do it. But rather that it would be very expensive, time and materials wise to construct. Also we'd have to factor in learing curve expenses (R&D) into the final product.

We have a couple of great new ideas in the design stage, totally novel and not drawn from other people's work.

Only time will tell if we produce them.

Sincerely,
Andrew

I personally think your stand is beautiful. Knowing that many of us have multiple headphones is there something in the works for a multi can-stand? Something like that is what I would be very interested in.

Andrew, if joelongwood comes a'lookin' for a model to hold all of his headphones, make sure to check your local building codes -- and to hire a reputable civil engineer -- before you start constructing it.
