THE DIY HEADPHONE STAND THREAD
Apr 7, 2013 at 7:12 AM Post #1,804 of 3,874
Just got my HD598s from amazon.fr (great deals considering the Euro to Aus rate + they'll ship sennheiser to australia, which amazon.com won't do)

Very temporary hanger until I have time to DIY an Ikea stand :p
 
Can't post images yet, so this link will have to do

(In case your wondering, it's the magnetic section from an worn out iPad smart cover I had lying around)

Landlocked.. that is def a nice stand bro. Haven't seen that design around here yet. 
 
Here's what I'm using that I found in my own flea market booth..
 
I constantly see kids walking around with their Beets around their neck.. so this follows the neckphone trend pretty well  :)



 
I also have this but.. I prefer the above.

Looks great, so are the FA-011's going to gather dust now the HiFiMan's have landed... :D

Thanks bro, I've been wanting to make something for a while now & finally got around to it. I like your "neck rest" idea. Finding things that can work as a stand is a great idea. From banana hangers to jewelry stands, they're all great innovations & have a hint of Macguyver to them. Well done!

So far they have Lol :frowning2: although they have a very nice and very special signature to them. The what-I-thought-was-refined-bass is actually quite rumbly in comparison,but in a very smooth way.for some bass heavy music I still almost prefer them. Oh and they are lighter :D. My Alessandro ms1000's haven't been touched in a while though :frowning2:

If I were to use metal to make a stand, could I use thick solder to attach the different parts? I think that a nice aluminium stand would look nice, with maybe some glass bits.

I can't use alu anyway as its hard to find panels to use, so that's a no go anyway. I may have to use some sort of acrylic, maybe solid colour for the base, and clear for the arm. I'm hopeless at this sort of thing anyway, I don't even have a saw to cut with.
