I'm messing around with an '80s Pioneer amplifier I acquired, and being an '80s music fanatic, I'm pretty thrilled to realize that it sounds awesome (comparing to a modern $400 Harman-Kardon).
Since I'm a headphone newbie, I got to wondering which headphones were really the cat's meow in the '80s. I know AKG K 240s and Sony V6s were both popular. What else?
I'm not really talking about exotic quirky $10,000 stuff that looks like alien headgear so much as what head-fiers would have been posting about & buying if the internet was around in the mid '80s.
