vintage phones are they worth it

MBQuart cans aren't very well known in the US - where you can hardly buy them at all. Currently the only retail MBQuart can in the US is the Charter Oak headphones, which are descended from the QP450.

And I'm not even sure about those anymore - in a recent redesign, maxxsonics (their parent company) removed almost all references to headphones from their websites. It would be very sad if they've officially thrown in the towel on what was a very good run of products.

We all like to believe that there's a resurgance of interest in headphones over the last few years - but maybe we *are* the resurgance, and I'm not sure how big of a market we really present.

I now own three sets of cans Sennheiser hd224's MB Quart QP240's and some USB phones branded Mentor.

Oh man...vintage, nearly all my cans are vintage now! eek! Im a vintage freak.

But yeah I think they are worth it, but just like modern headphones, there are gems and there are duds.

Anyone knows anything about the Sennheiser HD110?
They are for sale on a Dutch site.
They look very Sixties with their white color. I'm tempted to place a bid.
