For those vintage collector types wanting to own a unique headphone from the '70s that was truly a pioneering effort-- no pun intended-- how about some 'phones that aren't electrostatic or dynamic or magnetic? These used Kynar (polyvinylidene fluoride plastic film), which is piezoelectric, for their diaphragms. No magnets, no external electrostatic fields. Also very stylish-- roller disco chicks love 'em. They haven't got much bass (and never will, due to the stretchiness of the PVDF film), but it's amazing that they even work, even more amazing that they work well. They're very smooth but rolled off at both ends.
