Just seen these at a bargain price for anyone interest in electrostatic headphones. They were originally Koss headphones priced at $1000.

Many moons ago I listened to a pair of Stax, just so relaxed and comfy. They are given good reviews.

I'm into headphones in a fairly big way, these do look interesting especially at that price -- I guess £400+ after import. Still look very good value.
I guess there will be some on the used UK market in a few months.

I already have a pair of Stax SR3, vintage gear now, I wonder how they compare.
