Sorry to be so OT, but where is the best place to get some D66's? I've been wanting to try these cans so bad, and it seems like Eggo's have a really nice following of dedicated fans. Looks like these SR-60's are going up for sale soon

Anyways, I'm sure you guys have never seen these before!

I have Rotel RH-930 headphones that I got from ebay. They're electrostatic or isodynamic I think, and are over 25 years old accoridng to rotel. Well they sound good considering they're that old, but have little bass and get beaten by modern cans.

I wish I had pics of my "Realistic (Radio shack) HP-100 Electrostatic Headphone System" to share.Made some time in the '70s and reportedly a SR-3 Mkll they look nothing like any Stax product but they DO have the Stax sound (the important thing).I don't use the interface box except in the bedoom system but along with having the original box it completes the systm as a nice (to me at least) collectable and at the same time hooked up to my version of the Gilmore All Triode Amp (AC coupled Kevein

) kicks some actual butt !

I think older headphones are just too damn cool and have considered many times snapping up cans i once had but no longer do as they come up for sale but the wifey is not having it !

Behold some damn hard to find stuff fresh from the 70's.... I seem to have a thing for vintage audio, these headphones (bar the floats) sound OK but not great, those pioneers (700's on left 300's on right) require alot of juice to power em and the sharps have ALOT of bass to play with (seperate woofer and tweeter in each cup), sound good with EQing.. the floats on the other hand sound forward like my grados and slightly more detailed... I like em, pity theyre kinda uncomfortable

 

[Nights_85]

damn.. double post. sorry

Shame you live in Sydney. I'd love to hear some of them.
