Vintage headphones wanted
Plotus wrote:
This is not an add for wanted/for sale, rather, I'm looking for
information on finding vintage headphones for my Hammarlund shortwave
radio. It was made in the 30's-40's (an HQ120) and I'm wondering what
kind of phones would be in keeping with the 30's-40's theme here. I'm
new to the Hammarlund, but not shortwave. I am at that point where I'm
going to start collecting the older shortwave/ham stuff before it all
dissapears (unlikely hopefully) and one thing for the older vintage
stuff to aquire would be cosmetically appealing headphones fitting the
earlier era of Radios. I'm aware these (Hammarlund) radios came with
speakers, which interest me as well, however for now I'd like a bit of
input from some of you vintage nuts out there. What ohms should I be
looking for too? Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.....Rich AKA
Plotus.
These look pretty sweet:
