Nenso Posted January 23, 2008 Report Posted January 23, 2008 What do you people use? And no.. beer bottles aren't legit..
ecclesand Posted January 23, 2008 Report Posted January 23, 2008 I like the Woo Audio stands for $32. Form and function all in one.
Nenso Posted January 23, 2008 Author Report Posted January 23, 2008 wow you people reply really fast.. I was thinking of getting woo stands, but will AT fit well on those? This guy named Jack replied to my email with a picture but I can't really tell since it's a front view. Thanks

Fungi Posted January 23, 2008 Report Posted January 23, 2008 I like the Koss Holdaphones, but they don't play too well with AKGs and they'll smash the padding of the Sennheisers. Personally I don't really like the hook of the banana hangers because it puts all the pressure on a small area.
spritzer Posted January 23, 2008 Report Posted January 23, 2008 Nothing but Stax stands for me. They do get a bit expensive when you need a lot of them...
jinp6301 Posted January 23, 2008 Report Posted January 23, 2008 Those stick-on clothes hanger thingys -3 for $1 at a dollar store
luvdunhill Posted January 23, 2008 Report Posted January 23, 2008 Spritzer have you seen the "Staks" stands? Similar to the Sorny and Panaphonics products
Fitz Posted January 23, 2008 Report Posted January 23, 2008 I spent all of $0 to build my headphone hangers:
spritzer Posted January 24, 2008 Report Posted January 24, 2008 Spritzer have you seen the "Staks" stands? Similar to the Sorny and Panaphonics products I use those for my non Stax phones i.e crap like He90 and ET-1000...
Nenso Posted January 24, 2008 Author Report Posted January 24, 2008 Anyways, HOLY SH*T, FITZ. I always knew u were the AKG guy from HF, but.. wow I've never seen ur pics before. I might end up grabbing a dual-end stand from Larry/Headphile and 2 stands from Woo (I have audio-technicas, Grados, might buy Beyers or Senns in the near future) I'm just worried about how well it fits my AT becuase ATs have wings which are.. in the way.. lol Post pics! I would help much more if people get to see how they fit! Thanks guys~
n_maher Posted January 24, 2008 Report Posted January 24, 2008 I love my swt stand (which I just realized I've never posted a picture of) but I'm not sure he really builds them for sale. If I had to buy one I'd keep it simple and go the banana hanger route and just make sure that the type you buy doesn't put any stress on the headband.
aardvark baguette Posted January 24, 2008 Report Posted January 24, 2008 I've been super lazy recently, and have been using a balled up tshirt on the table as a headphone cushion.
Nenso Posted January 24, 2008 Author Report Posted January 24, 2008 why spend all that money when you can do just as well with a banana or a mug stand? I'm fine with it, it's just that banana/mug stands don't always work that well.. and they're really ugly.. remmeber, audio-technicas have wings lol
ojnihs Posted January 24, 2008 Report Posted January 24, 2008 I've been super lazy recently, and have been using a balled up tshirt on the table as a headphone cushion. haha nice!
Iron_Dreamer Posted January 24, 2008 Report Posted January 24, 2008 Hmmm, I've got one pair that resides in a case whenever not in use. The others fit into a pouch, or a drawer in the case of the HD201. So no stands for me. My best stand was very fitz-ian, a couple of long nails into the drywall, topped with about 2" thick foam, wrapped in electrical tape, worked very well back in the CD3K era
Nenso Posted January 24, 2008 Author Report Posted January 24, 2008 My search is over! TY people for your great help! Now I sleep.
socrates63 Posted January 24, 2008 Report Posted January 24, 2008 Great find! I'm definitely ordering. As for the Headphile stand, I recently saw a single headphone stand used with the L3000. The pipe is too fat to fit between the wings and the band with clearance. You can use the stand but I don't think it's an optimal solution for AT cans. One other thing, the Sennheiser headphone hanger works well with AT cans. It is wide enough so you can hang the headphone by the headphone bands.
Fungi Posted January 24, 2008 Report Posted January 24, 2008 If you are going to use that AT stand with AT headphones, you can't pull them up or you'll bend the wings backwards; you have to slide it off. Here's a (Japanese) review of some headphone stands including the STAX and AT stands. http://www.geocities.jp/mister_terch/zakki01stand.html
