I got these headphones from a second hand record store. They were only five bucks so I wasn’t sure if they would work. They have a large stereo plug and included in the box was a stereo to mono plug (to connect it to consumer audio equipment). Using this plug sound only came out one earpiece. I wonder if this why someone got rid of them. Anyhow, I went to Dick Smith’s and got a stereo to stereo plug and they work fine (and look cool to boot). Yay!
hmmm… an image on the Tin man from Wizard of Oz comes to mind….. very retro…. 😉
Very cool, any idea what make/model they are? More importantly, whats the sound like?
They’re Waltons Celestial deluxe stereophones (made in Japan). I think they are the classic generic brand that uses to make all sorts of appliances (sort of like “mistral” or “ronson”). They sounds alright… pretty standard 8ohms, 20-20k Hz sort of fair.
