Just remember to keep in mind the size of your headphone when chosing the banana hanger.

Thanks Steve, just needed some confirmation before I went out and ordered one. Could the aluminium rods in anyway be scratched by the stand?


I don't think so, but there is a 1/8" foam sheet with a sticky backing that I use for the bottom of my stands, and you could wrap the center rod of the stand with it. It comes in Black, and is about $1.00 a sheet in most hobby stores. Or find a piece of the proper size Black rubber tubing to fit over it at the local home center.

Boomana,

That's a really nice stand, is that Larry of Headphile's work?

Yes. That's also his photo. If I can find my camera, I'll take one with the K1000s on it. They look great. I just got it today, so I had to show it off. He's going to design one for my R10s next. I wonder what that one will look like.

So he does do custom requests then?? Hmm... I may need one for my K1000s.

I just tell him to do whatever he wants. It's worked out well for me so far.

Though I don't have a picture (you may have seen it on his website), my HD650s are resting on another beautiful stand with a hummingbird and a flower. As others have also said of his work, the pictures simply aren't as beautiful as the real thing.

If I can find my camera, I'll take a picture of the K1000s on that stand. It's a perfect match.

I've seen a fair bit of his work (in pics and live). I guess I have the number 2 thing that I'll be buying soon. The first, of course, is a good K1k amp.

Thanks, I asked Jack and he sent me a photo with the AT's resting on the rod in middle, so it fits just right. Just ordered one in silver as the W5000's seem to complement each other otherwise black may have been too black...

I originally posted this in the Show me your headphone stands thread...

My first headphone stand, made by phergus_25. The wood is maple, and it coordinates well with the turntable and the rest of the gear. I intend to color the red felt with a black Sharpie. I love the look of pitted metal.

Some interesting and all beautiful examples of headphone stands! Great to see these, also for getting ideas.

Do we have any more contributors?

Thank you all!

John

I had my headphone rack designed with "stands" on the side.
