So these arrived today.. new to me.. appear to be in good shape working well..
I bought these entirely because the Dead Kennedy's were wearing them in the lost tapes videos
made in japan
ear cup
So far .. Pretty good, fairly comfortable.. sound is good (for vintage headphones).. sound stage ~ok pretty ok for vintage headphone.. you can see the how these are the ancestor of the MDR-V6's. I'm not thrilled the ear pads seem to be glued(???) on and they are pretty much all plastic (ear cups , arms.. but a solid sort of quality plastic that seens pretty sturdy indeed.. given how old this set is pretty solid certainly.)
isolation is also good ... not sure how much I will end up wearing these.. put they are kinda fun to have and I've been wanting a pair since realizing the DKs wore them in the lost tape recordings..
just cool vintage gear
