Antique headphone wiring
Hello! First post on the forums. I am puzzled by the wiring for old Dymac monopole magnetic headphones. I have two pairs- a Type E which work great and I won't dissect, and a Type F which were fairly lousy and I didn't mind taking a look at the voice coils (they are identical, but are simply...- MovingIron

The Vintage AKG Headphones appreciation thread
I find it fascinating how some of these Vintage AKG headphones sound better to me, than most of the mid-fi and even some TOTL hps being produced over the past 25 years or so.

AT-706 adaptor box switch
Hello there, just bought an old Audio-Technica AT-706 electret. I've been eyeing one for awhile just to mess around with, though I know that it's not going to compare to any proper electrostats. Now the condenser box switch seems to have a problem with audio. At the moment it only outputs audio...- McCheeseBob

8 Ohm Headphone Amps? Where can I find one?
Newbie here. I'm searching on eBay for some vintage headphones recently, but they are all 8Ω. Then I looked for an appropriate headphone amplifier to drive those, but I'm not so fortunate to find one. All headphone amps are only made to drive cans with a maximum impedance of 16Ω. Can you give...- TheVocaloidOne
