Hey all,
 
I just picked up an Elevation Lab adhesive under desk hanger which seems to work pretty well.
 

 
 
Not sure what I'll do if/when I get a third set.  (Maybe another hanger?
 
How do you guys organize your headphones?

My headphone stand can hold two to five headphones. (Depending on size.)
 
When I had more than that at one time, I kept the ones I used less in boxes (usually the original ones) in the closet.

I used to use banana holders (they're cheap and make good stands), but I got tired of dusting and how bulky that was getting (I own over a dozen pairs of headphones after all), so I took the top few drawers of a dresser and just keep my cans in there now. Every headphone is either in its case, or (for ones that didn't come with cases) in little bags I made (just fabric in a pouch similar to what some headphones include). Keeps all the wires out of the way of each other, so there's no tangles or fuss. It's honestly the most hassle-free solution to the problem that I've yet come up with, and it keeps things less cluttered looking because its just a dresser from the outside.

Looks very good. Just to point out, and I don't know if this is really a problem or not: years ago there was a lot of conjecture/worry about storing the AKG K7-- series hanging by the leather headband (as opposed to by the hoops) because it (apparently/in principle) can wear the elastics out prematurely. I'm not sure if there's merit to this - I had mine for over five years and wore them extensively and never had issues with the elastics, so I'd assume its fine based on that, but I figured I'd pass along the other side of that just as food for thought.

Thanks for the tip! I haven't thought about that.
Since I need the space for another set and use them quite rarely anyway - in a drawer they go!
Cheers
