I prefer my $400+ headphones on my stands rather than just lying around.

Imo it's not about saving deskspace, it's a piece of furniture thats supposed to look nice with your phones. Could just hang it on the wall if I wanted to save desk space!

Why shouldn;t the cushions be under any pressure?, I hate it when I just let it hang, then the headband tightens and I have to untighten it again when I put them on not to get headaches. ;P

Sweet buddy! I love the industrial design, and the frontward slope. Are you about ready to move down here and go into business with me?

Ran a google for DIY headphone stands and found this thread.. awesome site, just confirmed that once again.

Anyway, heres mine: It used to be one of those up-close mirrors, but I unscrewed the mirror, bent the metal frame slightly, and put some rubber on the base. Now its a poor mans DIY dual-phone metal stand!

I just use the stands that they use for coffee mugs!, works me wonders!

its funner, cheaper, and more satisfying to make your own stand then to buy that, imo

I've been contemplating a stand, and I thought damn, I'll have to move the lava lamp. But it actually makes a good stand

Wouldn't use it as a stand while it's on and hot though...

I swear I have found the cheapest banana hangers ever. I was initially looking at bed, bath, and beyond and linen&things and only found ones that were either $20 or broken. So I went over to Walmart and looked around their kitchen section. Guess what I found for $5. This has to be the cheapest stand around. The quality is even better than the ones I found at bb&b and lnt. For anyone who doesnt have a stand yet you now have no excuse.

BTW, this was at a supercenter so I'm not 100% certain that the smaller ones carry these. For $5 my pricey headphones don't have to rest on my desk anymore.

Lol. Would it count as DIY if I said I sanded down a rough patch on it?

I totally have an idea for a stand, I'll try and get pictures of a beginning tommorow, some of you may laugh, but I think it's a "unique" idea

That is very nice. I have looked and looked and looked for banana hangers but I can't find any. My partner found a neat cup holder the other day that works great as it has a center wood post with two opposite hangers so I can hang two headphones and then there are two lower posts that work very well for the cable. I mentioned the great banana hanger you showed here and she said, "I found what you needed". Yes but this is HeadFi and the quest never ends!
