As many of you know I have made a lot of headphone stands (nearing 30 by my count). Some have been hits and others misses, but this one I am really proud of. My goal was to make this stand as one makes a piece of furniture. So, no gimmicks, just carpentry. It definitely resolves the dust problem, which represents the Black Plague in our headphone hobby. This version is 90% complete. It is only missing the LED lights, which for myself at least is the cherry on top. Hope you guys like it :)

Thanks to all for the kind words. It's a little disappointing that there are no options to enclose your headphones. I mean, realistically, if you have an Orpheus or an R10 or an original Stax Omega, products that are no longer viable candidates for service, would you really run the risk of keeping them out in the open, exposed 24/7? Or would you keep them locked up in their boxes and all the tedium that entails. It's silly in a way that these questions even have to be asked, when considering the cost.

Anyway, when I get the chance my next model will probably be a roll top design and serve the same function.

Or.....waterproof, dust-proof, fire-proof, earthquake-proof but not very portable.
