Hi,
 
I found an old pair of Leson CSH-50 at my grandfather home. It seems to be an electrostatic headphone from Japan.
 
Does anyone heard of it before ?
 
Will it be interesting to restore them ?

I am going to take a wild guess and say they are identical to these:

Can you post up a picture?  Are they black with chrome cup arms?
hopefully they come with the adapter box also?
 
 
Man how cool is that find, regardless of how hey sound.
 
Check back in.

No it's not lik that.
 
Looks like some washed out white cups, quite thin indeed compared to your pic.
 
They're good for trash I think.

what made you think they are electrostatic?

 

[alex223]

Basically because it is written on it...

I wouldn't throw them out if I were you  depending on how the plug end is they might be able to be adapted to another adapter box ( like a Stax box ) to run them, if anything  you could probably sell them on here. If you get a chance can you please post a picture of them ( do you have the adapter box anywhere?
