Whats wrong with just putting them on your desk when not using them?
Most of them stands linked in that other topic look like they take up more room than just putting them down anyway.
depends on how much you value them I suppose, a lot of people have like £200+ headphones on here, some even £300+, etc.
you wouldn't just place a £3000+ watch on a desk now would you?
I'm looking to build a collection of headphones and a desk just wouldn't have the space to house I need a stand of some sort. My collection isn't going to be high end either but merely budget performers.
HTF600, MDR-7506, SE-A1000, HD 595, HD25-1 II, Fidelio X1
You could say why buy all them and just buy 1 really good set but they all produce sound slightly differently, some favour bass, some neutrality, some are bass low, some have a huge soundstage others don't. Some are open others are semi-open, others are closed, so they suit different environments.
I own 3 of the above already, just need to buy the other 3. A lot of fake mdr-7506's out there though, so I will need to buy them brand new off a reputable seller, I know how to spot a fake but don't want the hassle of fighting a case or having to send it back, etc. Going to get the SE-A1000 when I'm on holiday in a few months time, I'll leave the Fidelio X1 for another year or so.
